    In Reservoir Dogs, Mr.Blonde uses a straight razor to slash a police officer's ear off.

    Here is the scene: http://youtube.com/watch?v=komvFIGYBYM

    There's that scene in "The Color Purple" where Danny Glover gets a straight shave from Whoopi Goldberg. I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen the movie, as it's pretty climatic.

    The movie "The Machinist" has a scene where someone gives themselves a shave with a giant hunting knife. no lather, no face prep, just took a big knife to a dry face. i couldnt imagine the razor burn after that one.

    I believe that there was a scene just like that in Predator while they were camping in the jungle.

    Also, In Star Trek: Nemesis (it may have been a different movie); William Riker decides to shave his beard off with a straight razor.

    Young Peter Fonda played impoverished Verge Likens in "The Alfred Hitchcock 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.

    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.

    Plot summary for "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour"
    Return of Verge Likens (1964)
    Starring Peter Fonda
