Young Peter Fonda played impoverished Verge Likens in "The Alfred Hitch**** Hour" TV show back in 1964. Likens becomes a barber, so he can induce a fatal heart attack while giving a scary straight razor shave to a wealthy, powerful heart patient who got away with killing Likens' father.
Local authorities try but fail to charge Likens with murder, because the expertly shaved corpse, with eyes wide open, is completely unharmed.:eek:
It's been a few years since I last saw this episode, but if memory serves, I recall young Fonda doing all the honing, stropping and shaving techniques perfectly.
