this list we’re looking at the films who
broke the law either during production
or after it 10 filming without a permit
the Terminator I’m a friend of Sarah
Connor I was told that she’s here
courtesy oh please
the original Terminator film did not
have the budget its later entries would
have because of how limited their funds
were the crew floor went certain
expenses like neglecting to pay for
permits to film on Los Angeles streets
which is why so much of it takes place
at night they were so pressed in fact
that they didn’t even stop when
pesticides were being sprayed over the
city which is what the fog actually is
in some shots this bit of penny-pinching
most certainly put those onset in danger
of exposure to toxic chemicals number 9
misrepresenting their message the bridge
this documentary film chronicles the
Golden Gate Bridge
with emphasis on those who commit
suicide by jumping off of it every year
when asking for permission to film it
the crew misrepresented their focus as
they feared if word of their intentions
got out but it would lead people to kill
themselves to be on film as it turns out
the movie had this effect anyway since
the number of deaths on the bridge
increased after the movie began showing
lastly given that some of the jumps are
shown it may qualify as a snuff film
which is considered obscenity in many
places I don’t know why people kill
themselves
and yet it’s a small step to empathize
to say but because I think we all
experience moments of despair number
eight illegal use of autopsy footage men
behind the Sun a harrowing and graphic
depiction of the cruelties of war crimes
men behind the Sun has drawn criticism
for the levels of violence that approach
exploitative levels however it’s true
crimes while not as severe as those it
depicts are still serious
at one point real autopsy footage of a
young boy is shown while elsewhere a
group of live rats were set on fire and
another swarm of rodents appeared to eat
a cat alive in the latter case the
director claimed that the cat was
actually covered in honey which was
licked by the rats which is still cruel
come on now and don’t feel discouraged
you keep up the good work and report to
me at once when the experiments are
completed yes sir
number seven trespassing and filming
without permission escaped from tomorrow
[Music]
giant testicle Disney is notoriously
touchy about people using their
properties without permission but
they’re willing to bend sometimes if the
depiction is positive that’s not really
the case with escape from tomorrow a
surprisingly violent and surreal movie
filmed without permission at Walt Disney
World the strange film proved a surprise
cult hit at festivals and although its
cinematography is necessarily pretty
poor it’s still amazing the filmmakers
shot as much of they did on location
even more surprising though is the fact
that Disney did not pursue an illegal
action though they probably didn’t want
to draw too much attention to it okay
better get going
number six extreme method acting Easy
Rider
oh man this is grass you mean marijuana
lord have mercy
what dad is made during the height of
the 1960’s counterculture Easy Rider was
a film that helps embody the movement
with at emphasis on freedom and its
copious drug use
however the drug use wasn’t simulated as
the drugs used on camera were real and
the drug use happened to copiously among
the cast and crew off the camera as well
all of which was highly illegal at the
time director slash star Dennis Hopper
also allegedly threatened actor Rip Torn
with a knife only to be successfully
sued for defamation thirty years later
after implying torn had pulled the knife
while Hopper was reminiscing about the
production with Jay Leno I mean you go
for the big money man and then you’re
free you take number five imprisonment
this is not a film yeah Oh Charlene
curry had in Kahana cinema daddy and a
lot of money in this case the film was
the crime filmmaker Jaffa Panahi was
banned from making films by the Iranian
government after filming the violence
which took place after the controversial
2009 election and was placed under house
arrest in protest to his imprisonment
Panahi broke his band to document his
imprisonment he then smuggled the
documentary titled this is not a film
out of the country on a flash drive to
be shown at the Cannes Film Festival
while Panahi was not given additional
charges his ban was upheld and he was
made unable to leave Iran sorry sergeant
Dan Bahat Aaron cage film is oxygen
merit I didn’t notice how far yet Aditya
number for animal mistreatment Heaven’s
Gate you’re not my class kid you never
will be
you’d have to die first and be born
again plenty of movies over the years
have abused killed and mistreated
animals films like Cannibal Holocaust
for example but perhaps more shocking is
a film like Heaven’s Gate which features
dozens of assumed examples of violence
against and mistreatment of animals
these include bleeding and disemboweling
animals to provide a realistic Gore for
actors genuine cockfights decapitated
chickens and even a horse being blown up
with dynamite which can be seen in the
movie
public outcry was so great that Heaven’s
Gate was essentially cause for the now
common disclaimer that no animals were
harmed during the filming of movies
number three
kidnapping bogus re one guy we’ve had
entries that had crimes take place
during them or because the films
themselves were crimes but in this case
crimes were committed in order for it to
be made sounding itself like the plot to
an action thriller North Korean dictator
Kim Jong Il abducted South Korean
filmmaker shin sang-ok
and his estranged wife actress choi
eun-hee in 1978 and imprisoned them with
the goal of having them make films for
him which they eventually reluctantly
did before their escape in 1986 that
pair made several films including
pulgasari which was influenced by
Godzilla movies number two intimidation
sweet sweetback’s badass song this
seminal blaxploitation movie broke rolls
all over because they were filming
outside a union the crew members were
armed and several of them threatened
extras who wanted to leave early
additionally one of these real firearms
was mixed in with the prop guns which
endangered those on set even the
soundtrack is sketchy it was done by
Earth Wind and Fire but the check they
were paid with bounced and was never
made right
[Music]
lastly the director slash stars son
performed in the film against labor laws
and appeared in a sex scene and appeared
in an assault scene which despite being
mimed
could still constitute abuse number one
child labor Twilight Zone the movie hey
you want to see something really scary
you bet
really yeah it’s infamous for a reason
while making his portion of the twilight
zone director John Landis hired two
child actors under the table breaking
child labor laws and opted not to tell
any safety officials of their presence
on set but that’s nothing compared to
what happened to them
a scene involving a helicopter went
horribly wrong when an explosive caused
the chopper to crash killing both
children and actor Vic Moro as well as
injuring the helicopters passengers if
there’s any consolation to this tragic
event it’s that it led to more stringent
safety procedures that likely prevented
more such incidents from occurring so
want to see something really scary do
