That would be funny. Of course, those kind of arguments are nearly always made outside the presence of the jury and often in writing. However, we can be sure that, in a case like this this, an objection for the record is going to be made in some form to just about anything that might be damaging.

Yeah. Wouldn't want the jurors breaking into raucous laughter as someone like Matt Dalton tells the court, "Your Honor, it would be unduly prejudicial to tell these people how the head was severed. It's obvious that they're too stupid to know that just because the head was severed in a horrible, gruesome way, doesn't mean OUR client did it!"
