Mom brings her kids to work and uses them as human targets! Luckily she misses. Newsreel reporter doesnt express any irony in this story at all, which makes this equally troubling. Whats even more eerie is the cute poses the kid has when Mom is throwing knives at her head. Yikes!
★★★★ · Whatever You Do, Don't Distract Her! · Christine Hennig · 2003-12-09
Can you spell Âchild endangermentÂ? I thought you could. In this newsreel featurette, a mom whoÂs a circus performer throws knives at her two daughters, ages 5 and 21/2. Now I know sheÂs a skilled performer and the point is that she misses, but donÂt scare me like that! Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: ****. Weirdness: ****. Historical Interest: ****. Overall Rating: ****.
★★★★ · Another title that made my night... · NoiseCollector · 2012-08-09
Like some other reviewers allude to, at first it seems all scary and dangerous but when I was kid only special needs people wore helmets and they got picked on and either learned to fight or make love like charlie sheen. We rode our bikes against traffic alone at night... OMG, I cannot believe I am still alive. Today we subject ourselves to sedentary occupations, reducing our life span and filling our minds with useless drivel. Strange how the pharma companies, lawyers, and doctors have added a hundred new diagnosis's, a thousand new medications and a million more laws to keep us distracted…
