re: the monkey thing, if you have ever seen FACES OF DEATH, there's a scene where they show a dinner party trying this delicacy fr the first time.
Only instead of slicing the monkey head, they have little mallets which they use to whack the monkey's head while he spins around frantically shrieking!
This is pretty horrifying, if you put yourself in the monkey's shoes, but the really amusing thing about the footage is the dinner party - they're 2 50-something couples who are instructed by the waiter on what to do, are each handed a little mallet, eye each other nervously and then in a very foppish manner lightly tap the monkey on the head while looking uncomfortable!
After a few light taps, the monkey is all screaming and panicky, and then one of the men (he has a big black mustache) finds his gumption and leans into it a little more. Thye monkey is not happy about this.
It's kind of a bummer that right after they show the mustachioed fiend with his fucking eyebrows pointed towards the middle of his nose nail this tiny monkey's cranium with a doctor's reflexatory mallet, there's a cut, and the next shot is of the monkey dead. I mean, we didn;t get to see it die!
It would have been cool to see the fatal blow, especially if it was dealt by a nauseous, pearl-wearing, white-gloved Agnes.
