This is certainly not a nice piece of film. But, like all the hordes of things like this out there, it is the animal deaths that are particularly nasty.
As countless people have stated before, the fake stuff is laughable in places, and the whole thing is quite patronising, the commentary is quite annoying at times, and basically this infamous nasty is a let-down.
Go for the (stupid but intriguing) Traces of Death series instead. They cut out the black and white stills of 50 year old Murder cases and film of plane wreckage where you are supposed to see a dead body. Or better still, track down Banned From Television 1-3, which is an intelligent and well put together documentary series that really does make you think, and not laugh, like Faces of Death does.
