There’s a little dark something that lives within all of us. Some of us control it. Some of us ignore it. Some of us are never even able to identify. it Those who live by the horror-sharpened sword know that darkness well, seeking it out in the most extreme films. And those people – whether sick, healthy, normal, psychotic, or other – deserve a little nod from time to time. Now is that time. Check out ten of the most disgusting, memorable murders featured on film!

Oh, and for the record, we’re going to avoid taking the easy route and have excluded all the Final Destination flicks!

Ghost Ship: We’ll keep it real honest here; Ghost Ship was a pretty mediocre movie. Hell, that could be considered a generous statement. But one scene, the opening shot, was absolutely brilliant. When a snapped cable sails through a massive ballroom and cuts every last passenger in half, it’s shocking. It’s also wonderfully gory and sets the tone for a wild and graphic picture. Too bad the rest of the film couldn’t live up to that awe-inspiring bloodbath.

Death Proof: Be honest, you didn’t see this sequence playing out exactly as it did. Never did you imagine crushed skulls and flying extremities, but that’s exactly what Quentin Tarantino delivered: a head-on collision that yielded a stunning explosion of graphic gore that simply cannot be ignored! One of the best moments in the film? You bet your ass! It’s just a damn shame that so many sexy young ladies had to meet such an early demise.
