Each actor that was "killed" during a particular scene was fitted with a custom appliance piece. This extra piece was hooked up to around 4 medium sized clear plastic tubes through which the blood would flow through. The tubes (usually 2 connected to one pump) would be connected to a pump which would hold the blood supply. And when the actor went to "slit their throats" a crew member on set would pump the fake blood through the tubes which would be released out through a small slit that was pre created in the neck appliance.

The razor itself was also connected to a tube. The tube connected to the razor was quite a bit smaller than the ones used for the neck piece. The razor would be made specially so that the tube could run through the razor handle and into the blade, where there would be a small slit in the actual blade in order to let the blood out of the razor blade. The blood razor and the neck appliance would be used together in order to achieve the amount of blood flow that is seen in the movie.
