If you're an old school horror fan, Dead and Buried is a must watch. You could categorize Gary Sherman's horror masterpiece as a "small town with a secret" film or just simply a "zombie" movie. Either way, Dead and Buried is a classic that has largely been ignored and forgotten by horror fans.
Plenty of great kills, but the most brutal death in the movie is a two-parter. In the opening scene our victim is minding his own business until he is seduced by a beautiful, mysterious girl on the beach. Just as he thinks he's about to get lucky, a handful of townsfolk savagely beat and burn him alive.
But it ain't over yet, the poor bastard survives! As our burn victim rests peacefully in the hospital with a full body cast, he gets a visit by a familiar face. The same mysterious girl from the beach, now disguised as a nurse, has come to finish what she started with a giant hypodermic needle, Lucio Fulci style! Thank you Stan Winston.

Friday the 13th Part III - All Death Scenes
Friday the 13th Part 3 had some of the best death scenes in the whole series. Who can forget the Andy's handstand death or Vera getting a spear in the eye. All classics, but the most memorable death scene has to go to Rick, killed by Jason who squeezes his head until one of his eyeballs pops out. Because it was originally in 3d, you could tell most of the deaths were intended for some great 3d "eye" candy. Get it? Eye candy.....I'll be here all week.

Marked for Death - Overkill!
As far as the fight scenes go, Marked for Death is arguably Seagal's best film where Aikido is on display in full view. You'll see Seagal stab, shoot, throw, cut, and even decapitate the bad guys. In this scene, Seagal goes mano-a-mano with one of the Screwface twins. He first pushes his eyeballs back into his brain. Then Seagal snaps Screwface’s spine over his knee and throws him down an elevator shaft. I’m pretty sure he died.
