Terribly Violent Movies Ever
With high competition and developing media technology; 2010 would be the tough year for horror movies to compete in the gallery. Here is the top 10 ridiculously violent movies.
-
I Spit on your Grave
A woman vacationing in the woods is captured by a group of men who take turns raping her. She escapes. Later, she hunts the men down one by one and pretends to seduce them. Then she kills them. The end.
An endless parade of indignities against the human body occurs throughout the course of this late-'70s exploitation film. I Spit on Your Grave is still nearly impossible to watch 30 years later. -
The Wild Bunch
Set in 1913, long after the days of cowboys and outlaws had run their course, the film follows a group of grizzled veterans as they drift through a world that has no use for them anymore.
The director inserts in the film, orgies of shocking violence. By the time of the film's famous final showdown - in which the men indiscriminately mow down waves of Mexican soldiers - it's clear that the outlaw code the men claim to follow is just as meaningless as the brutality they inflict. -
Kill Bill
Quentin Tarantino's two-volume epic is a postmodern orgy of blood, music, Kill Bill, tells the story of the Bride (Uma Thurman), who used to be the most dangerous member of a crew of goons. Upon realizing that she is pregnant, the Bride decides to ditch the killing game and settle down to a normal life with a record-store geek. This doesn't sit well with the rest of the gang, particularly former flame Bill.
The film is essentially a bloodthirsty rampage of revenge that takes the Bride from California to Japan to Mexico, where she slices up countless goons, cuts off the top of Lucy Liu's head and plucks out Daryl Hannah's eyeball in the process. -
Cannibal Holocaust
Italian director Ruggero Deodato made one of the most realistic, infamous and troubling horror flicks ever made about a slew of movies about cannibals in jungles.
Actually filmed in the Amazon rain forest, Holocaust purports to show found footage of a group of filmmakers that went into the wild looking for sensational stuff only to meet a grisly end. -
300
As a film, 300 does a lot of violence. 300 wreaks violence upon your eyes. A band of Spartans, their digitally enhanced abs rippling in the Hellenic half-light, slice and dice their way through the onrushing Persian horde.
Blood flows everywhere, limbs are hacked off, decapitated heads pirouette in the air, spears penetrate sternums and every other part of the human body. Bodies pile up one after the other, then get put into a wall of bodies. Everyone dies in a red mist. -
The Passion of Christ
Mel Gibson's portrayal of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his final 12 hours alive can best be summed up by a quote from film critic Roger Ebert.
'The movie is 126 minutes long, and I would guess that at least 100 of those minutes, maybe more, are concerned specifically and graphically with the details of the torture and death of Jesus,' Ebert said, also writing that it was the most violent film he had ever seen.
