I Saw the Devil - Car Stabbing Scene

If you haven’t seen I Saw The Devil yet, stop whatever you’re doing and go watch it(after reading this post of course). The movie is simply amazing. The film stars two of Korea’s most successful actors, Choi Min-sik and Lee Byung-hun, stars of the aforementioned films Oldboy and A Bittersweet Life respectively. The movie is directed by Kim Ji-woon and his resume speaks for itself: A Tale of Two Sisters, The Good, the Bad, the Weird, The Quiet Family, and The Foul King. The movie is a breath of fresh air from the predictable rehashes of Hollywood films. Do yourself a favor and watch it. This is probably one of the coolest scenes in the film, our antagonist turns a couple guys into human pin cushions.

Zombies?.....CHECK, violence?.....CHECK, ass kicking lesbian swim team?.....Fucking CHECK. You know, the less I say about this one, the better....

Ghost of Mae Nak - A Splitting Headache

--Heads up!

Mak and Nak, a young newlywed couple in Bangkok, acquire an antique brooch and an old abandoned house that soon bring them into contact with the ghost of Mae Nak, a figure of horror from one of Thailand's most enduring ghost legends....and the fun begins

Ghost of Mae Nak does have some really cool death scenes that are reminiscent of the Final Destination movies, but much like the Final Destination movies....Ghost of Mae Nak just isn't very good, but that's not why we watch these films, is it? No.....It's the Movie Deaths yo.

Just check out this scene and tell me it doesn't ooze Final Destination. In this clip Mae Nak's ghost "protects" the couple from an unscrupulous real estate agent.......


Ouch! Pretty good for a low budget Thai film huh? Too bad the movie itself isn't very good. Want to watch an awesome, entertaining Thai film? 13 Beloved aka 13: Game of Death.......hell yeah.


The film is about a about a guy who is led through 13 progressively challenging, degrading, and dangerous tasks by a mysterious caller....The tasks? Well, for example, #3 is to make three children cry, #5? Eat a plate of feces served in a Chinese restaurant......yummy! Remake rights for the film were purchased by The Weinstein Company. Of course they were...

Ninja Assassin - Opening Scene

There are several entertaining deaths in Ninja Assassin and the opening scene is a showcase for arguably the best ones. In the clip, Hollywood and his friends spill buckets of CGI blood at the hands of the Ozunu Clan. Hardcore 80's Ninja movie fans should be pleased to see the awesome Sho Kosugi play as the leader of the clan. Sho Kosugi is a legend in the Ninja film business, starring in such "classic" films as: Enter the Ninja (1981), Revenge of the Ninja (1983), and Black Eagle (1988).

Thirst - Super Throat Punch

You can always count on the great Park Chan-wook for a fantastic death scene. In his newest film Thirst, there are several, but the one that stood out the most was the throat punch delivered by Tae-ju near the climax of the film. If you haven't had the pleasure of watching this film, do yourself a favor and do it immediately.
DEATH SCENE IS AT 2:30

DEATH SCENE IS AT 2:30

Protégé - One Shot Fall

There's somewhat of tired formula for the death-by-fall scene. It usually starts with a shot of person being thrown off a ledge, cut to stuntman falling for a couple seconds, then cut to a reaction shot of a spectator upon impact. It's been done and quite frankly, it's a little boring. One of the first people to add something to the fall scene was Hitchcock. In the 1942 film Saboteur, we see a character slipping and falling off the Statue of Liberty, all in one amazing shot. Just another reason why Hitchcock was way ahead of his time. The creativity of the fall scene has largely diminished. Which is why scenes like this clip from the Hong Kong film Protégé is a breath of fresh air. Andy Lau plays as an undercover agent(he does it so well) getting raided by the cops, the only way out and the only way to keep his cover is by escaping out the back. Only problem is........ they're about 15 storeys high.

Duel to the Death - Over the Top

Sometimes there are films that can hook you into a genre. Watch Oldboy and you will have a new passion for Korean films. Watch Seven Samurai or Shogun's Assassin and you'll have an addiction to samurai movies. Like those, the 1983 film Duel to the Death will open your eyes to the world of wuxia films. Forget Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Duel to the Death is one of the last old school Hong Kong martial arts epics. This movie has it all. Fast paced fight scenes, beautiful cinematography, compelling characters, and most of all.....Ninjas. Surf Ninjas! Sand Ninjas! Exploding Ninjas! Tree Ninjas! Flying Ninjas! Giant Ninjas! Even naked female Ninjas! Truly one of the most action packed high flying martial arts films ever. In this clip, Japanese Master Hashimoto goes one-on-one with a corrupt Japanese official. The result is a hilarious over the top decapitation.

Enter the Dragon - Han's Death

Fleeing into a hall of mirrors, Han escapes Lee's brutal beatdown. But Lee has difficulty locating Han due to all the confusing reflections. Recalling his Sifu's teachings, Lee smashes the mirrors to "destroy the enemy's illusions and draw out the enemy's real form". He eventually faces Han in combat and knocks Han right onto the sharp point of a spear, impaling Han and killing him.

Throne of Blood - Washizu's Final Stand

In the spectacular ending of Akira Kurosawa's Throne of Blood, Washizu(Toshiro Mifune) gets his comeuppance. Shot by his own archers, he stumbles forward before being shot in the neck. He slowly descends the stairs and dies, collapsing dramatically on the fog-soaked ground. One of the most memorable and greatest deaths ever in the history of film.

• The famous arrow scene near the end was in fact done with real arrows. That is, the arrows hitting the wooden planks were not done with special effects, but rather choreographed with archers. Mifune waves his arms to brush away the arrows sticking from the planks, indicating to them that he wanted to go in that particular direction. The real arrows were included to get Mifune's facial expressions of real-life fear, which is exceptionally hard to imitate. Of course, the arrows that hit the Mifune character were bamboo fakes.

Thirst - New Red Band Trailer

Yes, I am excited. Park Chan-wook, vampires, Song Kang-ho, all these things equal win.

Fulltime Killer - Too Many Grenades

Scene from the Johnnie To film Fulltime Killer. Hotshot hitman Tok, played by the always cooler than you Andy Lau,











blasts his way to the target a'la The Terminator. Once he finds the mark he tosses a bag full of grenades into his jail cell, taking the pin out of only one of them. Our victim searches frantically for the cooked grenade, but with little hope.

The Bride with White Hair - Exactly 8 Pieces

Scene from the Kung-Fu classic The Bride with White Hair. A goon threatens our heroine by telling her he's going to cut her in eight pieces. Well, you can imagine what she does...........

Dead or Alive - The End

Dead or Alive is another great film from director Takashi Miike(Best opening 10 minutes in movie history). Detective Jojima and Ryuuichi are at the end of their ropes when they confront each other in the final showdown. Miike fools us with a completely over the top and out of left-field ending to an almost normal cop drama.

Battle Royale - Schoolgirl Shootout

When Yuka is accidentally poisoned, the other girls begin to get suspicious and start blaming each other. Satomi kills Chisato when she reaches for a gun, and then gets into a shootout with Haruka and Yukie, killing Haruka. However, mortally wounded by Satomi, Yukie manages to kill her and then curses the girls for being so stupid.

Yakuza Demon - "You're way too cool man"

Yakuza Demon is a gritty classic crime drama with a different method of operation. It shows the honor, respect, and loyalty that some Yakuza pay the ultimate price for. In the final scene, Seiji (the always great Riki Takeuchi), finally without a gun and ready to start a new and different life is through with his past but the past isn't through with him. The Tendo syndicate closes in on him and open fire as Seiji blocks all the shots from hitting Boss Muto's wife. We realize just how badass Seiji really was with the last line of the film before the credits roll.

Memories of Murder - The Only Witness

In this scene from the Epic film Memories of Murder, local detective Park Doo-man (Kang-ho Song) and big-city detective Seo Tae-yoon (Sang-kyung Kim) attempt to extract information from the village idiot Kwang-ho (Park Noh-sik). When they realize that the retarded boy witnessed one of the crimes and try to speak to him, they frighten him so badly that he runs in front of an oncoming train and killed before he can identify the murderer, leaving only his fake Nike sneaker. If you are after an intelligent and thrilling emotional rollercoaster ride of a film, I'd highly HIGHLY recommend Memories of Murder.

C.O.D. - Hit by oncoming train

Victim - Kwang-ho (Park Noh-sik)

Famous Last Words - "Stay away, go...." --Kwang-ho

Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance - Revenge on the Black Market

Park Chan-wook's newest film Thirst finds Korea's leading man, Song Kang-ho(pictured center), as a much-loved priest who turns into a vampire after a failed medical experiment and becomes a tortured and depraved soul. The title refers to a craving for sex, blood and love. As we all know Park is no stranger to the movie death, as you can see from this scene from Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance he's also not afraid to show a little blood (or a lot).

C.O.D. - Major blood loss from a screwdriver to the neck

Victim - Chulseung (black market dealer)

Assailant - Ryu (Ha-kyun Shin)

Famous Last Words - "It's in an artery Chulseung. Don't take it out!" --Chulseung's Mom

Ryu seeks revenge on a group of black market dealers who ripped him off.

Infernal Affairs/The Departed - Rooftop/Elevator Scene Comparison

Let's get one thing straight, without the the 2002 film Infernal Affairs there would be no Departed in 2006. That being said, you have to watch The Departed as its own film and not just as a remake of Infernal Affairs.

Okay, now fast forward to the meeting on the rooftop between the mole (Matt Damon - Departed/Andy Lau - Infernal Affairs) and the undercover (Leonardo Dicaprio - Departed/Tony Leung - Infernal Affairs)

Shogun Assassin - Greatest last words ever

For those of you who have never seen Shogun Assassin, drive to the nearest MovieStop and buy it, right now. I don't care what you have to do, just buy it. It is the greatest and most violent Samurai movie not associated with Akira Kurosawa. Ogami Itto will go down as the biggest badass ever. The films are renowned for the incredible amount of onscreen stylized violence. In fact, after the second film, each movie would climax with Ogami slaughtering an entire army single-handedly. In the film White Heaven in Hell, Ogami Ittō kills a total of 150 people on screen, the highest body count for a single character in a single film in cinema history. In this scene, Ogami takes on the Masters of Death with bloody results and the greatest final words in film history.
