things are about to get bloody
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
violent movies for this list we’re
looking at films that choose to show
violence on screen and put a premium on
realism and effect we will be discussing
key scenes in many of these films so
here it is
spoiler alert oh no we’re also and this
is important excluding horror films
number 10 Dredd skinnin when it was
announced that a new film adaptation of
the Judge Dredd comic strip was set to
be produced many movie fans that
recalled the Sylvester Stallone film
were less than excited you’re a piece of
work and dreaded but comic fans knew
something we didn’t save me a lot of
paperwork if you just confess right now
the potential of the property was huge
and when the end product was released
dreads visual effects and action
enhanced by the graphic violence
appeased many who had been disgusted by
the previous film
so con that involving a unique idea of
showing the violence through the eyes of
drug-addled viewers in slow motion Lent
the sci-fi flick and otherworldly who
open ear
number nine Braveheart most war movies
are inherently violent but this medieval
war dramas extended battle scenes step
things up a notch in glorious fashion
never cutting away to the man in the
rear or focusing on the politics behind
the death and destruction the mayhem of
the eras worst that is typically
glorified is instead shown in grisly
detail in Mel Gibson’s Braveheart
the cherry on top it all comes in the
extended torture and beheading that
comes late in the film
and breed old boy so when I’m in my
cupcake done a man and his hammer can
sure do a lot of damage
as old boy tells the story of a man
consumed by his desire for revenge it
makes sense that things get a little bit
gruesome
but the level things region this Korean
neo-noir is both surprising and
enthralling whether it was the legendary
hammer in the hall fight scene or the
torturer and tooth removal seen this
film pulled no punches when it came to
showcasing action and violence number 7
Natural Born Killers
I’m a natural born killer it should go
without saying that a film depicting the
bloody trail of a couple of serial
killers was not gonna get a PG rating
but the highly stylized violence of
Natural Born Killers still caused much
outrage when it was released scenes in
which murder is given the sitcom
treatment laugh track included may have
been meant as satire but by the time a
prison riot is shown we know that what’s
going on here ain’t no laughing matter
number six Rambo when Sylvester Stallone
brought one of his trademark characters
back to life 20 years after he’d last
played the role the decision was made to
go for a grittier gory version of John
Rambo we’d seen the titular badass kill
plenty of people but never had he done
it in such throat ripping disemboweling
fashion as he does in the 2008 indie
film ultimately coming to a crescendo in
a 50 caliber m2 machine gun shootout
that begins with its first victim being
turned into liquefied goo Rambo
definitely earned its credentials for
this list
number five Robocop
much of the Robocop franchise in the 80s
was child-friendly including toys
animated shows and comic books except
for the film that started it all which
is the furthest thing from PG this movie
features a man who finds his way into
some toxic waste and is horribly mutated
only to be hit by a car and instantly
pulverized even the protagonist meets a
gruesome death before he becomes the
title character in a scene which
includes his hand and arm being shot off
before his entire body is riddled with
bullets finished off with a final
headshot number 4 battle royale I need
EMS fire go noisily not a mother this
uncle Gotti was that coming out years
before the Hunger Games this Japanese
action thriller sees a group of
youngsters forced to hunt each other to
the death
but instead of drama and melodrama it
focuses on the actual games and the
horror they create this is a world where
disrespectful youth are so out of
control that examples have to be made
out of them with the worst behaving
class being forced to kill or be killed
every year upping the action by throwing
in a few ringers with superior weaponry
you can rest assured that nobody will be
climbing and hanging out in trees in
Battle Royale
number three casino
Martin Scorsese’s organized-crime
masterpiece Goodfellas definitely
incorporated the violence that enforces
that world’s rules but there was one
scene in casino that outdid all of the
destruction of its predecessor while the
film literally starts with a bang we
thought we knew what we were in for
but when a man is later forced to watch
his brother be beaten to death with
baseball bats even we were appalled when
he then suffered similar treatment what
was allowed to just barely live so he
could be buried alive it sent to shut
her down our spines they bury them while
it was still breathing
then there’s the scene with the Vice
number to Kill Bill when a group of
samurai obsessed professional killers
attempt to take out one of their own but
doesn’t finish the job the table is set
for a series of escalating standoffs in
the first of the two films in the series
that was certainly the case as volume 1
ends with a sword fight so brutal and
bloody that Quentin Tarantino had to
make part of the scene black and white
to get past American film censors though
several other of the directors films
like Reservoir Dogs inglorious basterds
and Django and chained use violence it
was this film that showed it off in
perfect Tarantino style
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions the best you
could do you pants is great
number one The Passion of the Christ
Hanako burnout on yahoo mushiya hadn’t a
no macabre the who they most movies
based on the bible eschew violence and
opted instead to bring a sanitized
version of the famous stories to
celluloid when Mel Gibson decided to
tell the story leading up to Christ’s
death he bucked that trend in what
appeared to be an effort to have viewers
just marinate in it all showing a
vicious whipping jesus’s forehead being
ripped apart by the crown of thorns and
ultimately his gore filled crucifixion
in all its grandeur this film has more
than earned the top spot on our list
would do you agree with our list which
movie do you think is the most violent
