Description given on Youtube:
SUBTITLES AVAILABLE. Warning: contains nightmare fuel and graphic child death scenes (no, I’m not kidding).
Probably the most well-known and scariest public information film of ALL time, ‘Apaches’ was originally shown in schools on 16mm format in and around the Westward and Angelia regions of the UK, particularly those with more agricultural areas (for obvious reasons).
Prior to the film, there were around 30 deaths of young children each year due to accidents caused by playing on farms. As the ending roll shows, the year before this film was made, nearly 30 children died in accidents including being crushed by farm machinery, being killed in farm explosions, suffocating in grain pits, and being crushed by falling farm gates.
‘Apaches’ pulls no punches whatsoever in portraying the immense horror of child death due to playing on farms. And I am not over exaggerating here: this film alone managed to scare the bejeebers out of a whole generation of rural schoolchildren for an entire lifetime.
Shot fast in the February of 1977 on a home counties farm – probably in somewhere in Berkshire – ‘Apaches’ (made possible by the Health and Safety Executive) features a whole cast of six children from a Maidenhead junior school, all of whom play characters that are killed off one-by-one in tragic accidents. Such as being ran over by a tractor, drowning in a slurry pit, enduring an unimaginably slow and painful death via one’s internal organs burning from their inside-out upon drinking weedkiller, and being crushed by a falling hefty, metal farm gate. Despite the death count racking up and up, the children still continue on with their curious adventures, much like how real Apache warriors would’ve done – hence the film’s title.
As well as the graphic and stomach-churning scenes of the children dying, ‘Apaches’ also manages to give you a remarkable plot twist revealed right at the end for good measure, just in case you weren’t shocked enough: all but one of the Apache warriors die.
So wrap up warm, make a hot drink, grab yourself a bundle of snacks, sit back and (try to) relax, as I present to you the original spine-chilling PIF, “Apaches” – in sparkling HD never seen before.
See you on the other side!
