I remember seeing a scene from a silent film (before the Hays code obviously) where a little kid gets caught up in a machine in a shop he's forced to work in due to no child labor laws and goes 'round and 'round. His father cradles his dead, torn body. It was quite shocking to see something like that in a film from the Age of Chaplin and slapstick.

I've seen several safety films from the 1930's that are VERY graphic, Very gruesome, and had excellent special effects, (Unless they actually killed some people to make the films!) The point in those days was to try and shift all the accidents onto "careless workmen" rather than mentioning anything about safety guards or dangerous features. Workers were supposed to KNOW about all those hazards, and take proper precautions.
(After all, factory owners put them in charge of the dangerous equipment. So the factory owners couldn't be expected to know how the workers were going to screw up and get killed when the owners had put their faith and trust in those factory workers to keep themselves safe.)

At least they never showed a crying widow, toting her husbands mangled body home in a wheelbarrow that was thoughtfully loaned to them by the plant manager.

"and be sure you wash it out before you bring it back, Widow McGregor!"
