NOT SAFE FOR WORK: 13 Gruesome Decapitations
Sleepy Hollow: What really need be said of this picture? The whole damn flick is decapitation after decapitation! Fortunately for viewers of the macabre, Tim Burton knows exactly how to make such a violent act look unpleasantly believable.
Wrong Turn: Do half-decapitations count for this list? Eh, we’ll make an exception… or two. A pair of things that have always seemed logical to me: One, avoiding inbred cannibalistic rednecks will probably prolong the lifespan, and two, climbing trees is dangerous business. I’ve never run into flesh eating hillbillies, but I once saw a kid plummet from the top of a good 50-footer, smacked the ground so hard he snapped both of his forearms in half. No thanks, I’ll keep my feet firmly planted on the ground. Apparently Carly never saw a kid come falling out of a tree and break his bones in pieces. If she did happen to see something of that nature, she forgot, and went and got herself stuck up in a tree where maniac man eaters swing like wild monkeys. One even swings an ax, splitting that ridiculously cute face right in two.
Dead Snow: Nazi zombies? A chainsaw clothesline? One decaying head completely shredded in a single swoop? Brilliance in its truest sense. Dead Snow is a riotous feature, stuffed full of laughs and memorable characters. The legion of undead hatemongers even echo long after viewing. Outpost may have really kicked off the Nazi zombie craze, but Dead Snow took the concept and ran in a totally different direction. It’s a direction that proves every bit as entertaining as anything you’ll find in the Outpost movies (which I enjoy quite a bit, for the record), although the tone is dramatically different. Sick, sick movie, with some tasty gore to devour!
