That's really weird... I had this idea a few weeks ago of making a really fast edited video sequence of things that are not at all violent or gory but allude to it, and the rapid cut editing technique would make the whole thing go by so fast your brain would not have time to really process what it was looking at. The things I thought of were:
1. A hand holds an egg in front of an eye and a finger jabs the egg to break it cut to... A breadstick rests between splayed fingers and immediately a hand snaps it upwards cut to... a piece of polystyrene packaging fits against the throat and a bread knife is drawna cross and into it cut to a naked leg standing next to a chair leg and a machete strikes the chair leg cut to etc etc
I just couldn't think of enough sceanrios to make it worthwhile. I though a soundtrack of pain expressions underneath some calming music would further confuse the senses about what was happening.
- a hammer striking a fruit next to a hand was one.. and what links your idea to this post!SkyPoo
- why not strike the han********

Movies use the technique you mentioned too.Jaline - mentioned often. Rapid cuts = more frantic feeling.Jaline
