The grisliest supercut for the greatest movie deaths of all time
Yes, it’s a supercut—but wait! This one is different! For starters, it’s way more disgusting than most. And secondly it was curated by professional filmmakers. The 26 directors of The ABCs Of Death 2 were tasked with selecting the greatest deaths in movie history, resulting in this gruesome four minute video. Their ABCs Of Death 2 shorts were almost all in the horror genre (or at least horror tangential), and clearly they know their stuff as many of them contributed recommendations to this year’s 24-hour Halloween movie marathon.
However, not all of the deaths featured in the supercut come from the spookiest of film genres. There are selections in here from dramas, westerns, sci-fi, action films, and even a beloved children’s cartoon. Some of the deaths chosen are iconic or obvious, while some are a bit more obscure (and one is just a baffling choice). Take to the comments below and identify the ones that no one else can for a bid to be named the most depraved A.V. Club reader.
(NOTE: There are some incredibly grotesque and violent images in this collection. It may be disturbing to some and it is certainly NSFW)
