he’s been soaking our movie screens in
blood for over two decades welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
most violent moments from Quentin
Tarantino movies before we begin we

to subscribe for more great content for
this list will only be looking at
moments from films directed by Quentin
Tarantino rather than just written by
Tarantino or featuring him as an actor
number 10 shooting Marvin in the face
Pulp Fiction Marvin what do you make all
this arguably his most celebrated film
Pulp Fiction blew everyone away when it
was released in 1994 including actor
Phil Amar’s face Lamarr who played the
ill-fated Marvin is the one sitting in
the back seat of Vincent Vega and Jules
Winfield’s car when Vincent accidentally
shoots him in the face with a handgun
we gotta have an opinion I mean do you
think that God came down from heaven and
stopped they say hindsight is 20/20 but
in this case it’s easy to look back on
this moment and understand all that came
after it
it is Tarantino’s shining all being
bloody example of exactly what kind of
director he is shocking violent and in a
way kind of funny man I shot Marvin in
the face to do that I didn’t mean to do
it as an accident number 9 by by eyeball
Kill Bill Vol 2
[Music]
you don’t have a future suspense can
make or break a see wait too long in the
viewer gets tired too quick and they’re
left unfulfilled for this scene
Tarantino shows us that he is a master
of suspenseful shots waiting until the
absolute perfect moment to have the
bride reach forward and pluck l’s
remaining eye from her arrogant skull
it’s got two of the directors signatures
excellent timing and a brutal showing of
unapologetic violence in a nutshell
Tarantino shoots this one to perfection
of course one can’t help but cringe
watching the now eyeless l ride around
on the floor in pain shouldn’t have
messed with the bride number eight
Django returns Django Unchained just a
bit Susan always expect the violence
here is incredibly stylized but so much
so that certain scenes have a
surrealistic quality about them and this
moment is no different when Django
returns to Candy Land to finish the job
he and dr. King Schultz started he does
so with a certain degree of panache
he enters from a darkened corner lights
a candle and sings his way into the room
he then proceeds to put holes through
three men in a matter of seconds
finishing off the third with a bit of
poetic justice however the best is when
Django tells Cora to wish Laura could
buy and then shoots are clean out of the
room I said til miss Laura goodbye but I
miss Laura number seven I think this
just might be my masterpiece
inglourious basterds does the stamina
comes to compañía has 10,000 fula to
say that inglourious basterds is a
violent movie would be a gross
understatement it may just be the
bloodiest Tarantino film of all time
after watching colonel hans Londa
terrorized countless individuals
throughout the film it is with great
pleasure that we get to watch lieutenant
aldo raine dish out a little justice on
his newly acquired prisoner give you a
sum you can take off aldo begins by
shooting a guard and commanding private
you DaVinci to scalp him which would be
abnormal in any other movie but not this
one he then gives londa a little
something he can’t take off it’s revenge
seen only Quentin Tarantino could dream
up I think this just might
number six car crash death proof
ferocious is the perfect word to
describe the scene after slowly and
meticulously stalking his prey stuntman
Mike sets a trap to murder four women as
they cruise down the highway
what makes this scene particularly
brutal isn’t necessarily how oblivious
these women are to their impending doom
it’s the fact that the scene replays
itself three times to show us exactly
how each woman met their demise from
being blown through the windshield at
high speed to having her face ripped off
by a tire it’s impossible to make it
through this without the hair on the
back of your neck standing up as you
watch number 5 theater massacre
inglourious basterds
[Applause]
the penultimate scene in the final act
of Tarantino’s World War 2 Jewish
revenge film is unquestionably the most
violent in the film as Shoshana and
Marcel initiate their plan to barbecue
the German High Command two of the
Basterds burst through the doors of
Adolf Hitler and Joseph Goebbels balcony
and filled him with so much led their
faces literally start to disappear it
would always be too much to handle
if not for the fact that these are two
of history’s greatest monsters whenever
Tarantino rewrites history he does it in
blood
number four the bride versus the crazy
88 Kill Bill Vol 1
[Music]
this over ten minute long scene begins
with the bride facing off against gogo
a meteor hammer wielding teenager after
barely escaping that battle alive the
bride finds herself swarmed by dozens of
errands personal bodyguards known as the
crazy 88 this is the moment where Kill
Bill Vol 1
earned its status as one of the
bloodiest films of all time the bright
hats slices and claws her way through
each and every one of our ends minions
buckets of blood are spilt with limbs
flying in every direction
it’s a brilliantly choreographed piece
of violence that truly stands alone when
discussing Tarantino’s goriias scenes
number three pawn shop basement Pulp
Fiction yes father just killed a couple
plays this is a scene that sticks with
you when butcher Marsellus Wallace
tumble into a pawn shop they have no
idea what they’re about to get into they
awake in a basement with their hands
tied and a giant red ball gag in each of
their mouths they are then forced to
play sadistic game of eeny meeny miny
moe one that culminates in Marsellus
being chosen butch later manages to
escape but ultimately doubles back
picking up a katana along the way he
then uses his new toy to save Marcellus
who understandably has one thing on his
mind
revenge okay I’m pleading for number two
slave fight Django Unchained in a fight
to the death the suspense of who will
live and who will die is more than
enough to keep the audience’s attention
however Tarantino being the brilliant
director that he is somehow manages to
put an even greater spotlight on this
barbaric slave fight he sets it in a
room that is dripping with decadence and
surrounds the combatants with
well-dressed individuals sipping
champagne this makes the fight feel
uncomfortable and out of place his
audience right where he wants them
Tarantino then unleashes a barrage of
brutal shots that shows two slaves
bashing each other to death
[Applause]
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions number one
torturing the cop Reservoir Dogs while
Reservoir Dogs is jam-packed with iconic
moments the scene of mr. blonde
torturing an innocent cop is one nobody
forgets is the sadistic jewel thief
dances around his victim casually
wielding a barbers razor in one hand one
can’t help but feel an uneasy feeling
growing in the pen of their stomach mr.
blonde plays with a cop like a cat plays
with a mouse taunting his victim even
after he’s removed the man’s right ear
[Music]
[Music]
of course the kicker is when he steps
back puts the severed ear to his mouth
and asks you here that it’s hard to
watch or forget do you agree with our
