Here's a five-minute video that shows how to quickly and easily create a cut-throat look for a Halloween party or other event (such as leaving work early... tell your boss you accidentally sliced your throat on the company's paper cutter, show him the wound, and presto! Go home!)

You just need a couple of make-up products that you can probably find at a hobby or make-up shop. The stuff goes on quickly, it looks like a real wound, and it bends and moves like real skin, so it looks quite realistic.
