Sometimes a movie will come along that will make you think, then there's Caché, a movie that will drive you fucking nuts. The director, Michael Haneke, deliberately confuses the audience by not resolving the story. Instead, he ends the film with a long static shot that leaves the viewer searching for answers. No.....literally rewinding the movie and searching for answers. Haneke is known to be a critic of "mainstream cinema", especially the way it always has a simple and superficial solution to complex problems. Haneke also uses graphic-shocking-violent scenes to jolt the audience when they least expect it. Much like this clip from Caché.....
Majid invites our protagonist to his home and states he wants Georges to be present for what follows.....
bonus points for the gurgling noises....

Piranha 3-D - Death Scenes

Due to Comic-con's "Family Friendly" tone, convention organizers cancelled the panel for Piranha 3-D after the 10 minute preview planned to be shown was deemed "not appropriate." Well, it's certainly befitting on this site, so here it is....
Some highlights...skip straight to the 5:10 mark, there's nothing too interesting in the first half....
5:40 - As party goers scramble to get out of the piranha infested water, an overcrowded floating concert stage tilts over, snapping a cable and whipping it in the direction of two bikini-clad girls. One of the gals(Ashlynn Brooke) is split in half à la Ghost Ship.
6:10 - As Eli Roth tries to get out of the water, a boat crashes into him, crushing his head and splattering his brains everywhere.
6:45 - A women gets her hair caught in a boat propeller, as the motor is restarted she is scalped, face included.
7:30 - a woman is split in half for no perceivable reason whatsoever.
Also a Bonus! Kelly Brook's death scene

Gladiator - Female Archer Splits
In a recreation of the Battle of Zama (in the film they call it the Battle of Carthage), Maximus leads Proximo's gladiators against a more powerful force dressed as Roman Legionnaires. The fight gets pretty bloody with plenty of great death scenes, but one fatality seems to stand out the most and make you yell out "gotcha bitch!" One of the chariots-equipped with wheel blades- gets flipped by Maximus and his men, sending a female archer to the ground. At the same time the driver of another chariot is killed, veering it toward our fallen victim. She raises her hands up and screams out before she is split in twain by the razor sharp wheel blades.
SCENE STARTS AT 2:35

Apocalypse Now - Death of Colonel Walter Kurtz

One of the most emotional and philosophical death scenes in cinema history(Along with the death of Roy Batty). Intercut with a tribe's ritual killing of a caribou, Colonel Kurtz is hacked to death with a machete by Captain Willard as The Doors' "The End" plays in the background. Coppola lays the symbolism on us pretty thick as we see two beasts getting cut down. The ultimate sacrifice,.....the horror.

Hannibal - Bowels In or Bowels out?
Chief Inspector Rinaldo Pazzi(Giancarlo Giannini) continues the family tradition in this scene from the 2001 film Hannibal. After placing a noose over Pazzi's neck, Lecter(Anthony Hopkins) asks him "bowels in or bowels out?" Well, you can probably guess by now which one Lecter chose....

Wolf Creek - Head on a Stick

Liz gets into a car in an attempt to escape, but Mick announces himself with a sinister chuckle and stabs her through the driver's seat with a large bowie knife. She attempts to defend herself with a pen knife, but he proceeds to cut off some of her fingers and finishes her off by severing her spinal cord, what Mick calls "a head on a stick."

The Last Boy Scout - What a Way to Go
This scene is from the climax of the 1991 film The Last Boy Scout. Bruce Willis fights Milo atop the stadium catwalks in an attempt to stop the Senator's assassination. Bruce kicks Milo towards the edge of the catwalk where he is blasted by a barrage of bullets that sends him plummeting onto a helicopter's rotor blades.
So lets recap, crazy Milo gets beat up by Bruce, shot two dozen times, falls on a helicopter and is sliced to pieces. What a way to go

Jason Goes To Hell: The Final Friday - Safe Sex

While our couple is engaging in premarital sex, Jason ruins the moment by thrusting a tent stake through Debbie's chest and slicing her up the middle. What's funny is that before having sex our couple decided not to use a condom. IRONY!

Ghost - Carl's Death
A very underrated death scene from the 1990 film Ghost. In the climax of the movie, Carl, pissed off after Sam "donated" all his money to charity tries to come after Molly. Sam intervenes and pulls a couple classic moves from the poltergeist handbook. Fighting in vain to stop Sam's attacks, Carl foolishly swings a hanging hook at him.
------- "Nice try Carl"
The hook completely misses Sam (because he's a ghost) and swings back, shattering an open window, which falls and kills Carl in bloody fashion. Then the shadows around him rise from the ground and take the shape of demons, which drag him into darkness as his scream echoes away.

Sin City - He Didn't Even Scream

Let's Review: Kevin's appendages are removed, he's eaten alive by a wolf, and then decapitated. Yup, that just about qualifies as epic.

Demonia - Human Wishbone

The standout scene in Lucio Fulci's Demonia involves a man split in two by tree branches. A standout effect in the movie if you can make it through the whole thing, not one of Fulci's best.
SKIP TO 1:20 FOR THE SCENE

Watchmen - Rorschach Puts a Dog Down

In the comic Rorschach handcuffs the child murderer to a furnace, pours gasoline, and throws the guy a handsaw (implying the only way to get out alive is to cut his own hand off). Rorschach then watches the building burn to the ground. In the film he kinda goes another direction.......

Ghosts of Mars - Clea DuVall Decapitation
Oh shit......
If you are looking for some quality kills and great decapitations, then Ghosts of Mars is for you. There are decapitations galore. Throughout the film, the Goths (humans possessed by the "Ghosts of Mars") throw saw blades at our protagonists, chopping off limbs and heads without flinching. In this scene Clea DuVall tries to pull off her best Neo impersonation by dodging razor sharp saw blades, if you haven't guessed already, she Fails.....

Hostel II - Lost Manhood
Now technically I'm not sure this counts as a death, but I'm sure he died a little bit on the inside. Our victim broke the cardinal rule: Never piss off a woman holding a pair of scissors to your manhood. I don't usually warn people about videos on this site, but I'm gonna have to for this one.
