King Kong Lives - King Kong Eats

Scene from the not-so-popular 1986 film King Kong Lives. I don't know why it wasn't as popular as the classic?(Well maybe I do, but for the sake of argument just go with me). Maybe it was the plot, King Kong getting a computer-monitored artificial heart IS a little far fetched. Maybe it was the way Kong looked......












Or maybe it was because of scenes like this....

The Day After Tomorrow - Reporter Gets too Close

Ahhh, the Disaster Movie Death. It's never gory or too graphic, but there's just something about them that makes it great. In this scene from The Day After Tomorrow(a ripoff of the 1933 film Deluge), a news reporter gets hit by a flying billboard out of nowhere.

Scene is at 4:55

another great scene where Jeff gets crushed by a tanker @ 3:50

Exiled - Final Shootout

As far as I'm concerned, Johnnie To is the best Hong Kong action director since John Woo. Exiled is a spectacle of violence and pure awesomeness that keeps you entertained till the very end. In the beautifully choreographed climactic shoot out, all hell breaks loose in the time it takes a Red Bull can to fall to the floor in slow motion. As a Johnnie To film, I'd have to recommend this movie to any old school HK action fan that misses the days of Chow Yun Fat shooting up a tea house. Add heart, amazing camera movements, and excellent use of lighting and you have Exiled.

No Escape - Marek's Demise

In the final showdown from the film No Escape Capt. J.T. Robbins (Ray Liotta) fights Walter Marek (Stuart Wilson), the brutal leader of the 'outsiders' atop a wooden tower. With help of a last second distraction from The Father (Lance Henriksen), Robbins knocks Marek onto the wooden spikes below.

C.O.D. - Impaled on a large wooden spike

Victim - Walter Marek (Stuart Wilson)

Assailant - Capt. J.T. Robbins (Ray Liotta)

Quote - ...that's not funny
[he suddenly decapites his opponent] HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA! Now, that's funny! --Walter Marek

Frontiers - Table Saw Scene

In this scene from the French film Frontiers, Yasmine teaches one of the neo-Nazis why you never call a woman with an axe a slut. After a couple hacks, Yasmine forces the guy on a table saw and holds him down while being drenched in blood.

City of the Living Dead - Drill Scene

When dad finds out his precious little girl is smoking a fatty with Bob, he grabs his head and proceeds to bore his dome with a massive drill; all done in the slow and agonizing way that Lucio Fulci does best.

C.O.D. - Drill through the head

Victim - Bob (Giovanni Lombardo Radice)

Assailant - John-John Robbins (Luca Paisner)

Famous Last Words - "I can explain Mr. Robbins" --Bob

The Deer Hunter - One Shot

Mike(Robert De Niro) enters himself in a game of Russian roulette against Nick(Christopher Walken), attempting to persuade him to come home, but Nick's mind is gone. In the last moment, after Mike's attempts to remind him of their trips hunting together, he finally breaks through, and Nick recognizes Mike and smiles. Nick then tells Mike, "one shot," then raises the gun and pulls the trigger. The bullet happens to be in the chamber on that turn, resulting in the gun firing and killing Nick instantly. Horrified, Michael tries to revive him but to no avail.

Director Michael Cimino stated that Robert De Niro requested a live bullet in the revolver for the scene in which he subjects John Cazale's character to an impromptu game of Russian roulette, to heighten the intensity of the situation. Cazale agreed without protest.

Christopher Walken achieved the withdrawn, hollow look of his character by eating nothing but rice, bananas, and water for the week before he filmed the third act.

Troy - Achilles vs Boagrius

Quick and simple, Achilles easily kills the greatest and most accomplished warrior of Thessaly, Boagrius.

Wild at Heart - Don't Fuck with Sailor Ripley

The first scene in Wild at Heart has to be one of the most brutal beatings in film history. Sailor Ripley(Nicolas Cage) is attacked by a man with a knife hired by Lula Fortune's(Laura Dern) mother. Accompanied by a metal guitar riff and his girlfriends shrieks, Sailor doesn't even hesitate, but beats his head into a bloody pulp against the marble floor. He then pays her back by pointing his bloody finger over the corpse at Lula's mother Marietta. The close-up shot of Sailor repeatedly smashing the guy's head into the floor is not for the faint of heart, but it certainly gets the point across--don't fuck with Sailor Ripley.

Early test screenings for Wild at Heart did not go well; Lynch estimated that 80 people walked out of the first test screening and 100 in the next.

Evil Ed - "REST IN PIECES MUTHAFUCKA"

This is one of my fave scenes from the film Evil Ed(an obvious ode to Evil Dead), a low-grade Swedish horror film made in 1997. The movie is about a film editor who goes insane after he edited, and saw one too many bloody movies.
