Kill some time with our bloodiest list yet.
Mass murder
Slaughter on an epic scale
Kill Bill Vol. 1
The scene: Uma Thurman slices and dices her way through a Japanese gang.
Killer line: If there is one, it’s lost in a sea of 1700L of fake
blood.
Gore factor: Ridiculous yet realistic. Decapitations, bulk limb-chopping and an eye removal.
Ghost Ship
The scene: A pesky wire bisects a crowded dancefloor, then their tops slowly slide off their bottoms.
Killer line: The fishing-line wire is the killer line here. Originally, everyone was supposed to be beheaded but the studio went with this instead.
Gore factor: Severe severings of posh wankers.
Finding Nemo
The scene: The genocide of Nemo’s baby siblings at the start. Heart-wrenching stuff.
Killer line: Anyone for sushi?
Gore factor: It’ll only affect you if you’re a member of PETA.
Brain Dead
The scene: Death by Victa in an upside-down lawnmower zombie massacre.
Killer line: “Party’s over.”
Gore factor: Holds the record as “the bloodiest film ever”, with over 2000L of fake blood used. This four-minute scene alone used 300L.
Crap kills
These are the ones better off dead
Terminator 2
The scene: After an epic
robot fight, Arnie descends into molten heaven with a lame thumbs up.
Killer line: “Hasta la vista, baby” was subsequently overkilled by movie nerds everywhere.
Gore factor: Arnie melts but his acting’s so robotic you don’t feel much sympathy for him.
Heat
The scene: After a lengthy chase, Al Pacino’s livewire cop drops Robert De Niro’s master crim in a field.
Killer line: Overall, Pacino out-yells and out-guns De Niro.
Gore factor: Shit all. Just some gunshot wounds and a kinda awkward man-embrace afterwards.
Rocky 4
The scene: Following his bout with Apollo Creed, meathead Dolph Lundgren says, “If he dies, he dies.”Which he does. Top foreshadowing.
Killer line: “I cannot be defeated. I beat all man. Someday, I will beat a real champion.”
Gore factor: Just a flurry of Commie punches.
Reservoir Dogs
The scene: Tim Roth, who spends the entire movie bleeding and whining, is finally put out of his misery by Harvey Keitel.
Killer line: “Your not gonna f–kin’ die!” – Spoken earlier, ironically, by Keitel.
Gore factor: Bloody. Stylish. Wanky. And that's just the blokes suits.
Dead funny
It’s all fun and games – even when someone gets hurt
Dumb and Dumber
The scene: Jim Carrey rips the heart out of a karate-chopping Chinese chef and places it in a doggy bag.
Killer line: Carrey just makes a bunch of constipated-sounding kung-fu noises. What a comic genius.
Gore factor: Nowhere near as heavy as Jeff Daniels’ diarrhoea scene.
Big Trouble in Little China
The scene: Fat Asian baddie explodes, redecorating the room with his insides.
Killer line: Referring to the bodily expansion, a bloke called Wang says, “I don’t think he’s gonna stop.”
Gore factor: Should put you off your Chinese takeaway.
Pulp Fiction
The scene: John Travolta accidentally blows out the brains of a dude called Marvin all over the back seat.
Killer line: The initial stunned silence is the real killer. Marv was supposed to get shot twice but Tarantino thought once would be funnier. Nerdy f–k was right.
Gore factor: Fairly splattery.
Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life
The scene: Graham Chapman chooses his method of execution – being chased by
topless women off a cliff.
Killer line: Nothing’s said, but funnily enough, Chapman was the only gay member of Monty Python.
Gore factor: Zero. Heaps of ’80s titties, but.
