playing nice welcome to watchmojo.com
and today we’re counting down our picks
for the top 10 most violent superhero
movies before we begin we publish new
videos every day so be sure to subscribe
for more great content for this list
we’re looking at superhero films that
are layered with vast amounts of
violence and overall mature content as
such be on the lookout for some less
than savory scenes down the line number
10 thread turns out all we needed in
order to get a faithful on-screen
adaptation of this iconic character was
left alone and more darkness let’s talk
in a future where most of humanity is
shoved into less than spacious cities
the only ones who can bring order to the
chaos are the judges and the best of the
bunch is none other than Judge Dredd and
by best we mean he can take out waves
upon waves of criminal scum like no
other
thanks imagine the likes of mama and her
cronies may skin their enemies but Dredd
is more than happy to set their heads on
fire karate chop their necks inward and
just shoot them to hell
nice number 9 Robocop in terms of sheer
carnage very few have managed to capture
the essence of stylistic violence like
this sci-fi classic we barely make it
through the first quarter of the film
and our lead character gets most of his
limbs blown to pieces in a viciously
gruesome way
the action doesn’t stop there though as
after assuming his sleek silver look
Robocop takes to the city of Detroit to
clean up crime one gunshot to the crotch
at a time but the most intense violence
comes in the form of Edie 209 which
doesn’t so much kill its targets as it
does obliterate them into bloody chunks
number 8 the crow when your death is so
brutal and unjustified that your
resurrected by the mythical powers of a
creepy-looking bird for the specific
purpose of seeking vengeance it’s pretty
safe to assume that the results are not
going to be pretty Eric Draven is one
such soul and when it comes to paying
back the criminals that slayed him and
his beloved he shows no mercy
aren’t we all while he’s not opposed to
getting even via standard tools like
knives and guns he’s also not afraid to
get creative freaking weird for me oh it
gets better
after all it takes planning and finesse
to strap a guy to a car caused it to
explode and leave behind a flaming crow
insignia
number seven The Dark Knight what many
consider to be Batman’s greatest
cinematic outing also happens to be his
most violent mostly due to the vile
deeds of his psychotic nemesis the Joker
hi so serious in between all the
brawling with random goons the Clown
Prince of Crime wastes no time in
leading a mountain of bodies in his wake
even those fighting in his corner casual
murder acts of terrorism psychological
warfare and haunting speeches at
knifepoint hello beautiful the Joker has
nothing if not an excellent resume when
it comes to general anarchy number six
kick-ass no one said you needed
superpowers to be a hero well because
it’s an impossible dipshit but don’t
expect to save the day without gaining a
few scars when typical comic book nerd
dave Lizewski dons the guise of kick-ass
he soon discovers that vigilante justice
comes at a price as he gets himself
entangled with the world of the Mafia I
want to Casas head on a stick I don’t
want it no as such not only does he get
the crap kicked out of him on many
occasions but with trigger-happy allies
like Hit Girl and Big Daddy he also
tends to deal more death than save the
day
yes that’s what happens when you let Nic
Cage go crazy in a pseudo Batman costume
number five V for Vendetta
when your main character likens
themselves to Guy Fawkes chances are
something is going to get blown up as a
righteous anarchist fighting for freedom
in a future totalitarian United Kingdom
we will do whatever it takes to
overthrow the establishment who is the
perform following the function of what
and what I am is a man in the mosque
including slicing the hell out of anyone
who gets in his way
while blinding them with his mastery of
alliteration
between bees extremists act and the
violent responses of the High Chancellor
a lot of people get caught in the
crossfire
at least we end on some great fireworks
number four punisher warzone remember
how the 2004 film had plenty of deaths
but was also grounded by the tragedy of
Frank castles family this is interesting
yeah there is none of that here but
there is a hell of a lot of punishing
going on Frank Castle literally declares
war on the criminal underworld and
starts shooting down and taken apart
anyone who gets in his way
so much so that he actually punches
through a guy’s head not to mention he
throws the film’s main villain into a
glass crushing machine in the opening
act it may not have been the best
interpretation of the character but at
least they kept in the brutality number
three Logan
finally we got the Wolverine film we
always wanted reward all it took was
turning the whole thing into a Western
filled with heartbreaking content and
some absolutely visceral action scenes
in order to protect a young girl named
Laura as well as a dying Charles Xavier
Logan is forced to face off against a
group of heavily armed mercenaries and
it is brilliantly bloody
[Music]
unleashing the true animal within an
aged in grizzled wolverine gets to show
his bazooka rage and cut down his
targets to pieces about time number two
Deadpool wondering why there’s such a
sudden influx of mature rated superhero
flicks these days you can thank the Merc
with a mouth captain Deadpool not just
yeah armed with a healing factor katana
a hell of a lot of guns and all the
fourth wall breaks you can imagine I
know Slade Wilson literally paints the
town red on a mission of hilarious
revenge
it may be hysterical to watch but let’s
not forget that the extensive scenes of
torture decapitation and even a death by
Zamboni are far from kid-friendly larger
be killed why is that voting who knows
how he’s going to top this in future
installments you’d be surprised
before we reveal our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions
[Music]
number one watchman sometimes the world
just isn’t worth saving no the whole
world stands on the brink staring down
into bloody hell this dark satire on the
superhero genre may not have quite lived
up to the breadth of Alan Moore’s epic
graphic novel but it certainly delivered
when it came to the violence whether
it’s the comedian’s history of savage
kills and near rape attempts dr.
Manhattan blowing up human beings down
to the molecular level or just a day in
the life of Rorschach The Watchmen
certainly know how to get their hands
dirty need more proof and look no
further than the time a miniature crime
boss was killed via toilet do you agree
