hope you’re not squeamish cuz this might
get a little messy welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top ten bloody
movie scenes lot is thicker than water a
lot for this list we’re ranking movie
scenes that place a particular emphasis
on the red stuff whether imagined or
real and which resonate with audiences
we are specifically targeting blood with
this list as opposed to dramatic
violence without a lot of squirting
squibs so yeah
the redder the better this time around
folks and given that this list reveals
some pretty major plot points a spoiler
alert is definitely in order
number ten bloody beach piranha 3d
this loose 2010 remake of the classic
1978 Joe Dante flick wasn’t notable for
much outside of some pretty severe
bloodletting director at exempt Asia
ensured that his self-aware vision of
the already comic creature feature
arrived packaged with a ton of violence
however and this notion was most
dramatically presented in the film’s
climactic beach scene here dozens of
young revelers find themselves within
the chomping jaws of mercilessly mad
piranhas turning the raging waters red
with blood some of it practical makeup
and the rest of it unfortunate CGI
number nine chestburster alien director
Ridley Scott’s claustrophobic
masterpiece was equal parts science
fiction and horror but it was the
shocking bloodshed of this sequence that
shot alien almost immediately to
legendary status John Hurt’s character
Kane is recovering after being face
hugged by an alien earlier in the film
when he suddenly collapses in pain it
isn’t long before the alien spawn which
had been gestating inside the executive
officer bursts from Kane’s chest in all
its screaming bloody glory it’s an
iconic moment from an equally iconic
film franchise and a bloody one at that
number eight slashed throat gone girl go
slowly I wanted
there’s something bizarre and uneasy
about combining sex and death but this
scene from 2014’s gone girl goes out
with a truly visceral image of violence
Neil Patrick Harris is in the middle of
sex with leading lady Rosamund Pike when
her character
Amy reveals a knife and ruthlessly
slashes his throat Oh
Amy then turns desi over virtually
covering herself with the victim’s blood
from head to toe it’s a stylish yet
gruesome scene which has made all the
more impactful by the austere apartment
setting and Pike’s white lingerie
creating a morbid color contrast for one
seriously memorable shock
hello mr. Collings I’ve missed you
number seven mowing down the zombies
brain-dead
also known as Dead Alive potties OVA
director Peter Jackson cut his teeth on
a number of unique and quirky movies
early in his career with brain dead
titled dead alive in North America
serving as one of the bloodiest films of
all time
nowhere is this exemplified more than in
the zombie comedies infamous lawnmower
scene where the otherwise mild-mannered
Lionel is forced to take matters into
his own hands with an average ordinary
yard tool
our hero takes a lawnmower to the
exponentially growing number of zombies
swarming his house literally wading
through blood and gore at one point
making this one of the most over-the-top
scenes on our list you just get out of
you what haven’t seen mom yet
number six blood rave blade picture this
you’re at a hip nightclub where
everyone’s dancing with a frenzied
trance like look in their eyes it feels
pretty lucky to be at the center of what
is clearly the coolest night of your
life that is until you realize this is
also the last night of your life
during a blood rave in this vampire
flick one unfortunate soul is served up
as dinner to an orgiastic club full of
thirsty undead dancers
as blood pours down and steady streams
from the sprinkler systems the vampire
horde makes quick work of their victim
before returning to their wet crimson
reveling with glee
number five raining blood Evil Dead
Jasha fans were skeptical back when it
was announced the director Sam Raimi’s
iconic horror film would undergo the
remake treatment
many were pleasantly surprised however
with the strong and stylish violence
incorporated by director bidet Alvarez
the film is full of grim memorable
moments but the extremity is ramped up
considerably during the climax where the
sky literally opens up and rains blood
upon Jane Leeves Mia
in a film where so many bad things
happen to so many people Mia’s final
stand against the abomination is one
marked by mutilation mayhem and
screaming bloody madness
number four Glenn’s bed a Nightmare on
Elm Street it’s a fairly common slice of
movie trivia that megastar Johnny Depp
first got his start as Glen in director
Wes Craven’s classic A Nightmare on Elm
Street
why would anybody want to kill me it’s
the continued impact and influence of
Depp’s death scene however it serves as
one of the most memorable images from
Cravens entire career maybe it was the
fact that Glen was attempting to keep
his girlfriend Nancy safe from vicious
dream demon Freddy Krueger that had us
mourning his death or maybe it was the
violent explosive nature of the bloody
geyser that erupt from his bed
either way Glenn’s death had us all
sleeping with one eye open
number three the bride versus the crazy
88 Kill Bill Vol 1 so Aaron any more
subordinates for me to kill director
Quentin Tarantino is no stranger to
graphic hyper-stylized cinematic
violence but this scene from the first
volume of his Kill Bill series is almost
graceful in its depiction of ruthless
yet efficient butchery
it’s the bride versus the crazy 88 a
highly dangerous group of assassins who
all rush uma thurman at once much to
their dismay as orenji YZ % alarm e the
crazy 88 are no slouches but none will
impede the bride’s quest for vengeance
as she slices and dices her way through
each assassin all scored and shot with
Tarantino’s expertly measured attention
to detail
it’s martial-arts mayhem at its finest
mother
number two pig’s blood at the prom
Carrie I give you Tommy Ross and Carrie
White who can forget this classic finale
from director Brian De Palma’s take on
Stephen King’s classic story Carrie
sissy SpaceX tour de force performance
as the bullied and abused telekinetic
reaches its bloody climax when after
being voted prom queen she is
unceremoniously drenched in pig’s blood
by her cruel classmates
of course we all know the vengeance
inflicted by Carrie and her fiery rage
after this prank but it’s the look on
SpaceX face stained crimson yet still
tragically beautiful that continues to
haunt us so many years after the film’s
release
before we unveil our number one pick
here are some bloody honorable mentions
ah
stand back stand back there’s been a
terrible accident
number one blood elevator The Shining
Little Joe – I don’t know
it’s a double shot of Stephen King
inspired terror here at the top of our
list – no okay to me don’t want to
Stanley Kubrick’s psychological horror
favorite The Shining takes the number
one spot with its creepy and stylish
blood elevator scene it’s a simple yet
oh so effective sequence which focuses
on Danny Torrance’s shocked young face
as he’s tormented by visions of the
Overlook hotels elevator erupting with
an unfathomable ocean of blood shot in
deliberate slow-motion and without
musical accompaniment it’s a creepy
scene from a stone-cold horror classic
