Men Behind the Sun is a real rumour-machine, with even the inestines-exploding-out-the-anus scene said to utilise a real corpse (it isn't, it's a special effect).
The young boy seen autopsied is a real cadaver however - the director asked the police and his parents for permission to film this process, and they agreed once they understood the subject matter and purpose of Mous' film.
Like Cannibal Holocaust, Aftermath and Faces of Death, Men Behind the Sun really seperates the men from the boys in terms of uncompromising hardcore viewing.
