Body: Anatomy year 2000 directed by stefan ruzowitsky starring franka potente, benno fürmann, anna loos Qs: 8. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:6:58. At a hair shy of exactly seven minutes into the film, we encounter its most conceptually horrifying scene. A young man, maybe mid-twenties, wakes slowly, blinking repeatedly and trying his best to articulate his jaw to ask the classic “Where am I?” Very soon after, he gathers elements in a short series of chilling clues that lead to one undeniable reality. He sees men who look like doctors congregated about him and he picks up that he’s on an operating table. He watches one of the gown-clad men taking an organ over to a cart and placing it upon it, adding to the pile of parts that also included certain ribs. Craning his neck, he managed just to catch the handles of over half a dozen clamps jutting from a crater in his chest that the other doctors were busily fiddling around in. It hits him like a train at 8:10 that essentially he’s being autopsied while still alive. Continuing to assess the situation, he looks to his left and sees fingertips. Looking further, he figures out with unprecedented horror that as he commanded them, they moved. Once he knew it was his arm, bracelets of flesh alternating with bands of musculature leading up to a hand of which nothing was left but the prints and the nails, he looked over and saw anatomy on the wall. He was in the Anatomy Lab. No amount of screaming could match his unholy reality. SR: SSSSS 0:24:53. At this point, we’re brought into the university (Heidelberg’s) exclusive museum-style display of real examples of human anatomy. To the student, it’s standard fare, not to be sneezed at. But, for your non-medical citizen, the sights can cause a natural level of discomfort at seeing people done up as they are there. Though real, the bodies are, effectively, transformed into wax sculptures by a process called plastination where all water is removed from the tissues and a preservative substance is used to replace it. Now, though of course the examples in the film are props, this technology is real and actual examples exist, most famously in the work of Honoré Fragonard. Cf. House on Haunted Hill [R]. If this film gets to you, I very much recommend looking him up, him and Gunther von Hagens who does much the same work. 0:24:53. Here we see a man sliced up like deli meat, the individual cuts encased in thin, tailor-made Plexiglas containers. They are accurately spaced apart so as to represent the area of the body they were taken from. We see a layer for each of the feet, several going up the legs, one at the pelvic region, several bigger slices through the chest, a unique slice at the hand showing finger bones, and so on through the head. I wish to emphasize that though the models used were props, such methods of display do exist and are featured in universities across the world. SR: SSSSS 0:24:56. A woman is shown, her back opened wide to show some of the musculature surrounding the spine and some connected to the skin. SR: SSSSS 0:25:03. A standing man, one arm before and behind him, is completely skinned. A rectangular cavity is cut out of his chest in which one can see placement and orientation of various organs including the heart and much of the surrounding rib cage. SR: SSSSS 0:25:18. Here, we come upon a model that isn’t easy to describe. Virtually all of the skin and muscle of the figure is removed, the only bits remaining (that we can see) are inside the head (I’ll get to the skull in a moment) and down the arms. Many of the organs in the thoracic cavity are present and supported in their correct positions by rather intricate arrays of metal framework. Now, for the skull. Cut into four parts, the mandible hangs lower than normal to allow visual access to the tongue (#1.) The front, through about where the ears were, is cut off from the back (a solid piece, #2) and itself split it half through the nose and maxilla. Eyes are preserved in place, as is the brain. SR: SSSSS 0:25:50. The highly unfortunate fellow we saw at 0:06:58 is focused upon, his entire body done like his arm: alternating bands of flesh, muscle and tissue, cut away entirely in places to show the underlying skeletal structure. SR: SSSSS 0:47:25. After some squirming about, Paula jumps up off of her bed when she feels something wet under her, investigates with her left hand, and discovers it to be blood. Seeing a spot on the sheet, she yanks it off to reveal a giant stain on the mattress. Looking beneath the bed, she sees a good-sized puddle where it had seeped through. SR: SSSSS 0:53:33. After a music-video style make-out session with Gretchen and Phil, we hear the characteristic sound of the tranquilizer-type guns the anesthetists use. Gretchen, confused when Phil stops running his tongue around her navel, lifts his head up. Mouth agape, much of his blood spills on her, soaking her underwear a deep red. SR: SSSSS Anatomy 2 year 2003 directed by stefan ruzowitsky starring barnaby metschurat, herbert knaup, franka potente Qs: 9. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:03:00. Benny removes his jacket and cuts off his shirt with a scalpel he squirreled away in a pocket earlier, showing numerous stitched-up scars on his arms and chest. Slashing a security guard in the gut, he proceeds to cut through bandages on his left arm, bleeding down himself from it. He then takes three solid swipes across his own bare chest with the scalpel, opening himself up wide all three times, turning himself into a bloody spectacle of medical experimentation gone nuts. To cap it, he stabs himself in the heart with the surgical instrument and waits to die. SR: SSSSS 0:37:12. Doctors attach the CNE to Jo’s spinal cord through a square opening in his back in preparation for a similar venture on one of his calves. SR: SSSSS 1:06:06. Hagen slices Jo’s thigh open, a wound that bleeds down his leg onto the floor. SR: SSSSS 1:11:29. A supercharged patient breaks a doctor’s left arm with a strong blow, the clothing around his elbow soaking up red. SR: SSSSS 1:17:45. Doctors perform an extensive operation on the chest of an unnamed patient. SR: SSSSS 1:19:48. In a clever evasion maneuver, Jo dresses himself up to look like a patient. This involves breaking open a blood bag and soaking up some of the fluid into gauze squares and applying them to strategic places on his head and left leg before smearing a handful down the side of his face and playing a severely injured patient when curious doctors arrive. SR: SSSSS 1:22:24. Jo’s Filipino friends perform an emergency operation to remove the “bad implant” as they call it, cutting into the back of his knee and his heel. SR: SSSSS 1:29:58. Falling off of a considerably tall building, Gregor lands on the steel pole he intended to use against Jo. We don’t see a wound, but the water around him starts to turn red. SR: SSSSS 1:31:04. We don’t see who or exactly what happened to him or her, but a facedown corpse lies at the end of a path of blood at the door of the operating room. SR: SSSSS

Body: An American Werewolf in London year 1981 directed by john landis starring david naughton, griffin dunne, jenny agutter Qs: 10. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:16:12. Poor Jack is torn to bloody tatters. I need not say by what. When guys from the pub arrive to kill the creature and save David, the creature turns back, wounds evident. SR: SSSSS 0:25:15. It’s fast so watch carefully – David attacks and rips the throat from a deer. SR: SSSSS 0:31:50. David has a terrible and surreal dream. There’s a gentle knocking at the door and his father goes to answer it. When he opens it to see who it is, he’s immediately gunned down by auto fire from two wolf-Nazi types. They storm the house, shoot up everyone and set fire to the place before slicing David’s throat open – after they let him watch everything. SR: SSSSS 0:32:46. David wakes and tells the nurse of his nightmare. She says she has the perfect thing and goes to open the curtains. When she does, who’s there but one of the wolf-Nazi types who stabs her repeatedly – before David wakes for the second time. SR: SSSSS 0:33:36. Jack shows up in David’s room – throat and face almost completely torn to shreds, red everywhere. As Jack chats with David, watch for the tatters to jiggle and shake. SR: SSSSS 0:58:47. It begins, the landmark sequence that won a man (Rick Baker) the very first Academy Award for Best Makeup Effects. David is quietly reposing at home, reading a magazine. All of sudden, he feels terrible sensations from somewhere he doesn’t know. Immediately tearing off his clothing, David screams that he’s “burning up.” Then, the center of his hand only, not the fingers, starts grossly elongating while hair sprouts up all over his back and arms. His feet are the next to transform, stretching horribly while the general pain of becoming a werewolf worsens. His hair growth increases dramatically while the bones and muscles of his back start mutating, his fangs becoming ever more pronounced. Finally, his face and ears start changing, becoming less human and more lupine, the metamorphosis into werewolf completing its final stages. SR: SSSSS 1:02:18. The changed David tears apart a couple en route to a friend’s place. Their friend, suspicious at commotion outside, investigates and finds what remained of the man’s arm. SR: SSSSS 1:12:30. JFF: A newspaper article details David’s latest exploits. Pause at the mark and scan the text – it has nothing to do with the headline, werewolves, or anything of any relevant sort. J 1:22:30. Jack reappears to David, looking worse with every sighting. His skin is all black and he’s started to decompose noticeably around the mouth, the flesh of his lips gone, his teeth permanently bared. Jack introduces David to the six people he killed the other night, all of them bloody messes quite displeased with their recent deaths. The ludicrousness of the scene intensifies as the murder victims, covered in blood, chat about how David might kill himself to put an end to the curse and allow their undead souls to rest. SR: SSSSS 1:28:13. It’s dimly lit, but you can just make out a mutilated body that the officer first finds and later the second, actively being chewed on by David in plain sight. SR: SSSSS 1:29:28. David bursts through the theater gate and bites the head off of a man, throwing it on the hood of a car to bounce off into the street.

AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:16:12. Poor Jack is torn to bloody tatters. I need not say by what. When guys from the pub arrive to kill the creature and save David, the creature turns back, wounds evident. SR: SSSSS 0:25:15. It’s fast so watch carefully – David attacks and rips the throat from a deer. SR: SSSSS 0:31:50. David has a terrible and surreal dream. There’s a gentle knocking at the door and his father goes to answer it. When he opens it to see who it is, he’s immediately gunned down by auto fire from two wolf-Nazi types. They storm the house, shoot up everyone and set fire to the place before slicing David’s throat open – after they let him watch everything. SR: SSSSS 0:32:46. David wakes and tells the nurse of his nightmare. She says she has the perfect thing and goes to open the curtains. When she does, who’s there but one of the wolf-Nazi types who stabs her repeatedly – before David wakes for the second time. SR: SSSSS 0:33:36. Jack shows up in David’s room – throat and face almost completely torn to shreds, red everywhere. As Jack chats with David, watch for the tatters to jiggle and shake. SR: SSSSS 0:58:47. It begins, the landmark sequence that won a man (Rick Baker) the very first Academy Award for Best Makeup Effects. David is quietly reposing at home, reading a magazine. All of sudden, he feels terrible sensations from somewhere he doesn’t know. Immediately tearing off his clothing, David screams that he’s “burning up.” Then, the center of his hand only, not the fingers, starts grossly elongating while hair sprouts up all over his back and arms. His feet are the next to transform, stretching horribly while the general pain of becoming a werewolf worsens. His hair growth increases dramatically while the bones and muscles of his back start mutating, his fangs becoming ever more pronounced. Finally, his face and ears start changing, becoming less human and more lupine, the metamorphosis into werewolf completing its final stages. SR: SSSSS 1:02:18. The changed David tears apart a couple en route to a friend’s place. Their friend, suspicious at commotion outside, investigates and finds what remained of the man’s arm. SR: SSSSS 1:12:30. JFF: A newspaper article details David’s latest exploits. Pause at the mark and scan the text – it has nothing to do with the headline, werewolves, or anything of any relevant sort. J 1:22:30. Jack reappears to David, looking worse with every sighting. His skin is all black and he’s started to decompose noticeably around the mouth, the flesh of his lips gone, his teeth permanently bared. Jack introduces David to the six people he killed the other night, all of them bloody messes quite displeased with their recent deaths. The ludicrousness of the scene intensifies as the murder victims, covered in blood, chat about how David might kill himself to put an end to the curse and allow their undead souls to rest. SR: SSSSS 1:28:13. It’s dimly lit, but you can just make out a mutilated body that the officer first finds and later the second, actively being chewed on by David in plain sight. SR: SSSSS 1:29:28. David bursts through the theater gate and bites the head off of a man, throwing it on the hood of a car to bounce off into the street. In the ensuing chaos of the mixed efforts of people trying to get out of its way and those trying not to slam into it with their automobiles leaves many more dead, a number thrown through their windshields to be run over in the street by other cars or smashed between out of control vehicles as in the case of a particularly unfortunate officer.

Body: The Amityville Horror [R] year 2005 directed by andrew douglas starring ryan reynolds, melissa george, philip baker hall Qs: 12. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:02:03. Once upon a time, Ronald Defeo, convinced that his entire family was demons and had to be killed, walked around his house with a shotgun and blew all their brains out. Walking into his parents’ bedroom, he blasts his mother, her hair flowing into the air from the force of the shot and slowly settling back on her head, blood and brains dripping and flying; then, the father. Next his brothers get shots to the torso, blood spattering the walls, before heading to the youngest’s room and killing her. Speedy looks at the bodies and the crime scenes their bedrooms became while a man recounts how Ronald ran in the bar and went on about how “everybody’s dead.” SR: SSSSS 0:24:03. Michael heads to the bathroom to pee, going over to the sink to wash his hands afterwards. Trying to understand why no water is coming out of the faucet, Michael isn’t looking at the ghoulish figure standing alongside, dripping a black substance from his mouth while something finally comes out of the faucet – you can probably guess what. SR: SSSSS 0:24:35. Investigating what sounded like a gunshot, George passes a bleeding switchplate on his way to his sons’ bedroom. There he sees them laid out on their beds, shot through the chest. What catches George’s attention more was the man with the shotgun – himself. Barely having time to react, he watched as his doppelganger turned the shotgun toward his own head and blew his brains all over the adjacent wall. SR: SSSSS 0:37:12. In a truly creepy scene, Lisa is locked in the closet much like the babysitter was in the original. The light bulb starts to bleed as a premonition that things were going to get hairy, fast. Sure enough, Jodie appears. Lifting her hair, Jodie invites Lisa to “see what Ronnie did.” Revealing the entry wound, she doesn’t let Lisa see what we’re privileged to: the back of her head where her skull was blown open. It gets worse when she grabs Lisa’s finger and stuffs it in the hole, letting go only with a bang. ketch ‘em kill ‘em is written in blood on the wall while Lisa gets a glimpse of the past with Jodie’s body slumped against the wall where she died. SR: SSSSS 0:37:51. Also like the original, nobody can/will let her out and so she beats against the door hard enough to cau se her fingers to bleed as she gives up from exhaustion. SR: SSSSS0:42:50. Pushing open the door to the room that otherwise went nowhere, George finds himself in another place entirely. Blood flows through canals in the floor and pours from valves in operating tables, one of which his doppelganger is on. His back is opened up completely like the woman at the bar in Blade II and Bernie in Hellraiser 5: Inferno. His spine and muscles are visible, glowing in the underlit room. Lifting his head, George is propelled into violent sickness when his copy’s head looks up at him, spitting blood, and growls “catch ‘em! Kill ‘em!” SR: SSSSS 0:44:13. An otherwise ordinary warm bath is turned into a fight for survival when arms reach out from underneath him and try to pull him under. As they struggle, the water turns bloodier shades of red, more so when one of the phantom hands rips open George’s flesh somewhere before Kathy arrives on the scene and puts an end to the terror. SR: SSSSS 0:53:42. While reminiscing with his past via his home movie projector, George is taken aback when Billy’s face transforms briefly into that of some half-decayed demonic creature and back. Unsure if that was what he really saw, George rewinds, seeing the same images before the characteristic bubble in the center of frames of home movie film spreads and ruins the picture. SR: SSSSS 0:56:39. Thinking he sees some demonic figure rushing him in the boathouse, George axes the family dog, whacking him several times until he’s nothing but a furry corpse. Realizing what he did, George picks up the bloody collar, resigning himself to taking care of the scene, doing his best to scrub clean the boards he killed it on. SR: SSSSS 1:08:00. George breaks into and looks around the sealed-off laboratory of the man Kathy is researching at the local library – Reverend Jeremiah Ketcham. She reads, we see. A man with blood around his mouth lunges for George, stopped only by the bars he’s imprisoned behind. Another man does what looks like probing around in his mouth with a stick, spitting up much blood down his chin. While she reads up on how he slaughtered every one of the Indians he led, she sees a representation of a man suspended by hooks like in every Hellraiser film at the same time that George sees the real thing, a due amount of red leading down from the wounds. Spooked by a chained figure in another cell, George has no time to recover from that scare when a man with a metal cage on his face confronts him, his mouth held open by parts of the apparatus. Later coming upon Mr. Ketcham himself, George stands unaffected by the fountain of blood splattering his face from when Ketcham opened his throat before him. While Father Callaway encourages (demands) that Kathy get her family out of the house, George’s thoroughly blood-soaked face and body glow in the dim light. SR: SSSSS 1:18:32. In a surprising sequence, George buries the head of the axe in the chest of his wife during a tense confrontation between he and his frightened family. SR: SSSSS 1:19:18. After George is dragged to the boathouse his mind is wracked by a furious series of images. 1: his vision of himself blowing his family away before killing himself; 2,3: a blood-fall washing over him in Ketcham’s lab; 4: Jodie’s body in the closet; 5: hooks burying into a man’s flesh; 6: George’s writhing body on one of Ketcham’s operating tables; 7: another shot of the blood-fall; 8: random blood/gore; 9: a blitz of the whole episode.

Body: A Man Apart year 2003 directed by f. gary gray starring vin diesel, larenz tate, timothy olyphant Qs: 5. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:16:50. Brains and skull fragments fly from a point-blank shot. SR: SSSSS 0:38:45. A man with severe damage about the throat sits in a chair in Monroe’s house. Another man lies face-down not far from him, wrists bound with barbed wire, back carved up like a turkey, DIABLO written in his flesh.

A woman gets first shot and then run over by a car. SR: SSSSS American Psycho year 2000 directed by mary harron starring christian bale, willem dafoe, jared leto Qs: 6. AR: SSSSSSSSSS The film is nowhere near, not remotely close, as awesomely extreme in its violence, blood and gore as the original novel by Bret Easton Ellis. If I were to give a rating for the book, I don’t know if there’s a phrase that could do it justice. Impossibly, unforgettably and unbelievably are good starts. 0:28:16. Patrick Bateman’s first victim, Paul Allen, is rendered unspeakably drunk, taken back to the apartment, set in a chair covered with plastic (like all the other furniture) and surrounded on the floor by many pages of newspaper. Bateman then puts on a raincoat, retrieves a stainless steel axe (really), and strikes Paul seven times in the head. The first chop sprays blood in Patrick’s face. The other six are merely continued strikes of pure insane aggression. SR: SSSSS In the final scene where Patrick’s featured with the two prostitutes, “Christine” and Elizabeth (who is actually Guinevere Turner, one of the screenwriters), he has only Elizabeth in the bed with him, Christine standing alongside. 1:14:07. We don’t see what’s actually happening, but presumably Patrick has a very sharp implement of some kind in bed with him as the perfectly white sheets start turning red. When Christine picks up on the carnage, she starts to freak out. Upset, Patrick looks up from under the sheets, covered in blood up to his nose, and glares at her. SR: SSSSS 1:14:23. In her mad dash around the apartment, Christine opens a closet in which Patrick has hanging two bloody corpses in dry-cleaner bags. In another room she stumbles into, cut-up bodies lie about, “die yuppie scum” in blue spray paint on the walls. SR: SSSSS 1:14:44. The next door she tries to find sanctuary through, Christine slips in a substantial pool of blood leading away from an unknown victim. At this point, Patrick catches up with her and tries to take a bite out of her leg. She kicks him in the face and runs off. SR: SSSSS 1:15:00. As she flies around the building, banging on door after door, Bateman follows, completely naked except for a pair of sneakers and carrying a gas-powered chainsaw which he keeps revving every few seconds. Watching as she gets tantalizingly close to freedom, Patrick drops the chainsaw down the center of the staircase and punctures her through her back, a red pool spreading rapidly underneath. SR: SSSSS 1:19:00. In the last outburst of the film, a nearly three-minute full-on spree, Patrick 1: threatens to blow the brains out of a stray cat and feed it into the ATM; 2: shoots a woman who asks what he’s doing; 3: sets off a string of car alarms in an attempt to distract police whom he eventually shoots and kills four of (two by unintentionally blowing up their cars); 4: shoots a hotel night watchman in the head and 5: spins around in a revolving door to shoot a custodian.

After what must have been an intense scene of carnage, the imprisoned Professor Hudgens emerges from his “cell” to come upon a bloody ship-full of victims, red pooled around them, much splashed or streaked on walls and across the deck. SR: SSSSS 0:32:05. A Zeno tentacle grabs in its claws the head of an unfortunate security guard before jamming a spike through his occipital and out of his mouth. It then bends his head down, breaking his neck, to retrieve its spike before it disappears. SR: SSSSS 0:37:04.

Getting frozen a la Terminator 2 or Mind Hunters blows, doesn’t it? More so when your arm breaks off and flesh starts to disappear from your head. SR: SSSSS 0:45:23.

In a sick but slick gesture, someone whom we don’t immediately see sticks a rather wide gun barrel through the hole in his chest and blasts the Alien to smithereens. SR: SSSSS 0:59:08. It’s a little shop of horrors when Ripley stumbles into I-7, a research lab where ungodly abominations are grown in jars, essentially: a freakish human-type thing with a long, distinctively Alien tail; a female subject who looked like she was giving birth to one through her face, one of the creature’s second mouths emerging from her left cheek; a truly ghastly type with virtually no human features and nothing for a face but a giant toothy mouth; a man with sickly long fingers and much else wrong besides and some sort of unrealistically-hellish-experiment-gone-massively-wrong type of woman who looks more like an alien platypus with the variety of parts and things she had in place of regular limbs. In mercy, Ripley roasts the travesty of nature alive. There’s no B & G but rather a motley assortment of biological terrors, things that didn’t mix nor survived whatever exactly kind of wanna-be-God sorts of things they were perpetrating in there. SR: SSSSS 1:03:13. Wondered what’s been happening to those test subjects who were so respectfully immobilized in pens with alien eggs and facehuggers? Here they are, guts hanging out. SR: SSSSS 1:33:13. Revenge is a dish best served…violent. The nickel worker gets his licks in and how on * for putting him through the whole experience. Charging him while taking direct chest hits the whole time, he pounds his head into a solid metal girder seven or eight times before he holds * against his body and lets the bursting Alien rip through his chest and out his hostage’s forehead, making the episode a bloody two-for-one deal. SR: SSSSS 1:35:42. After a nauseating birth sequence, the white, slimy thing that looks like a successful cross of the two species (more like an obscenely over-calcified human skeleton, really) comes forth from the equally as disgusting mother Alien. The new creature then turns on its mother and rips her head in half. How’s that for thanks? Its attitude gets worse when it responds to Gediman’s admiration by biting the top of his skull off, exposing his pulpy brain. SR: SSSSS 1:42:50. That thing is really friggin’ ugly. Just thought I’d say that. Anyhow, I hope you didn’t like Distephano because he’s on his way out as you could no doubt tell by the teary “I’m gonna die” look in his eyes. The Alien thing grabs his head in its fat little hands and crushes it like an elephant stepping on a watermelon. SR: SSSSS 1:45:33. Definitely the grossest sequence in the entire movie is right here when Ripley turns on her own kind and slings some of her blood on a nearby window, which, when it eats through, permits the vacuum of space to simply suck the creature right through the quarter-sized break and into nowhere. First a bit of the beasts’s flesh stars to pull away toward the hole. When it finally gets through it starts to swell into a bubble until it can’t handle the imbalance any longer and explodes in an effusion of blood and gore that eventually starts to work the creature over from the inside, sucking its guts out through its back before taking the rest of it, butt-ugly face and all, through the opening. Reeeeeally gross stuff. SR: SSSSS Upgraded an extra point for the standard reasons: miscellaneous nastiness and that gut-wrenching (and spewing into space) conclusion.

Body: Alien year 1979 directed by ridley scott starring sigourney weaver, tom skerritt, ian holm Qs: 4. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:56:40. It’s certainly one of the more famous, recognizable and widely-parodied events in science fiction, the first Alien birth which rips its way free in no time before skittering away. SR: SSSSS 1:07:45. I hope you didn’t get too attached to Brett. SR: SSSSS 1:21:33. (Ian) has gone completely around the bend and jams a rolled-up magazine in Ripley’s mouth, trying to kill her. Parker whacks him at the mark with a fire extinguisher and reveals an interesting secret: (Ian) isn’t real. He’s a robot, a cyborg, an artificial human. He spits and gurgles what I guess is cyborg juice (akin to hydraulic fluid) until he’s roasted like a marshmallow. SR: SSSSS 1:32:23. No one makes it out of this movie alive save Ripley. Here are Parker’s parts, spread about where he made his last stand. SR: SSSSS A2: Aliens SPECIAL EDITION CUT year 1986 directed by JAMES CAMERON starring SIGOURNEY WEAVER, MICHAEL BIEHN, CARRIE HENN Qs: 3. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 1:12:17. The first chest-burster of the film pops from a “live one” found webbed to the wall. When it finally hatches, the guys cook it and the girl by setting the whole place on fire. SR: SSSSS 1:24:18. Something goes wrong in the ship when Spunkmeyer doesn’t respond. The result is red splattered on the windshield and an imminent crash. SR: SSSSS 2:13:20. I won’t say, not by a long shot, that I can’t be surprised, but I knew better than to think it was over. Acid blood drips onto the ground by Bishop and we know what’s coming. A giant tail rips through him, his android fluid spewing everywhere before he’s summarily ripped in half and thrown in two different directions. His upper half a body manages to hang on, his synthetic organs falling out all over the ground. This isn’t the only time Lance Henriksen has been torn in half: see Hellworld. Well, you’d just as soon not, but… SR: SSSSS Upgraded to two based on the prevalence of alien gore, ooze, acid blood and the general way they look. J A3: Alien3 year 1992 directed by david fincher starring sigourney weaver, charles dance, charles dutton Qs: 8. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:07:58. A body in the EEV is guaranteed dead, the head splattered like a dropped pumpkin, jaws split apart, blood all over and maggots thriving in the scene of death. SR: SSSSS 0:24:35. Everything looks nice and hygienic as the scene opens, but when the camera pans down and we see that every tile wall in the room is covered in blood and there are in fact dead animals hanging from places on the ceiling, it’s like something out of Hostel. A maggot-infested ox is dragged in, ready for “processing” to put it nicely. SR: SSSSS 0:28:35. While Dillon contemplates innocence and punishment, the fat ox corpse the men drug in earlier starts to quiver and pour fluids from a rip in its side. It doesn’t take much to know what goes on, but I’ll go into it anyhow. The Hostel atmosphere continues with hacksaws and other devices on display as the blood continues to pour and the body continues to shake, disgusting sounds emitting from the widening hole in the animal. Then, it happens: a massive explosion of various substances and the usual maggots bear a slimy alien baby that quickly finds its bearings. SR: SSSSS 0:38:48. I’m not sure what Murphy the sewer rat was looking for, but when he found wasn’t this Spikey, but rather an Alien. He gets the acid spit right in the eyes and starts tumbling along in the tunnel. Now, you knew as well as I did that when that fan blade came on, something bad was going to happen. Tumble, tumble, tumble – instant mincemeat. Later, we get a shot of the tunnel bespattered with gore, an associate bringing him out in buckets. SR: SSSSS 0:55:02. One of the brothers sits up against a wall, pretty well ripped up by the resident Alien, great portions of his head torn away and brain fully visible. Thirty-four seconds later, another one bites the dust when it looks like the Alien ripped the guys skin off his face, his blood splattering on the timid sort who looked like he’d be sick back at brain-man. SR: SSSSS 1:10:45. Getting picked up by the head seems to be the preferred way to snatch prey. Leaves a bloody mess to clean up too. SR: SSSSS 1:29:39. Slit jugulars bleed like a mother, don’t they? SR: SSSSS 2:04:25. Jude didn’t make it, at least not in one piece. SR: SSSSS Upgraded to 5 from 3 for myriad instances of minor bloodshed and the cool Alien explosion at the finale.

Body: Here's another one for ya: Aftermath year 1994 directed by Nacho Cerdá starring PEP TOSAR, JORDI TARRIDA, áNGEL TARRES Qs: 5. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:00:44. Whether or not it was intended to be real I can’t say, but things open with a very graphic depiction of the death of a dog, looking like he was blown up from the inside, blood and gore just everywhere and most of its viscera was ejected from the body via the mouth. An eye’s dislodged and it appears that every single internal organ had become an external organ. SR: SSSSS 0:05:43. The first human corpse looks like an accident victim as well, his right foot barely attached. Work is being done on his bleeding head involving a scalpel, a corded bonesaw, a pair of boltcutters and a lot of crunching and crushing sounds. The technician then peels back the skin and removes the brain, carrying it off-screen. Later, he stuffs a rag in the void while his fellow morgue man undresses the second body. The former continues work on the stiff by cutting him open completely from neck to groin but not in the traditional Y-incision. Again come the bolt-cutters to snap ribs and remove the sternum to access the organs. An organ is preserved, neatly in a jar whereas the remainder of his gory inner workings are collected and unceremoniously shoved down into the still wide-open corpse, brain included. Now, I’m not a medical anything but I know that nowhere on earth is this standard procedure. SR: SSSSS 0:18:06. The second man, who seemed a bit paranoid the whole time, works on his latest body by extracting the brain and weighing it. He then takes what looks like a kitchen knife and runs it randomly up and down the chest, the intensity and mania increasing until blood is drawn. This impropriety multiplies ten-fold with a violation, several actually, with the same blade prior to cutting her open. This reveals much gore and apparently additional ample room to exercise his lopsided libido. SR: SSSSS 0:25:06. Gore on the floor: a length of intestine, a heart and a liver. He decides to keep the heart but returns the rest. SR: SSSSS 0:28:03. Some vile red slime is being mixed – no, pureed – in a blender and fed to his dog. We don’t need to be told – we know exactly what it is. SR: SSSSS Upgraded to 3 based on the prevalence of gore and the vile way in which a corpse was defiled in this otherwise pointless film, as pointless I may add as The Awakening.

Body: If everyone's ready, here's the first one: A History of Violence year 2005 directed by david cronenberg starring viggo mortensen, maria bello, ed harris Qs: 4. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:04:45. At the mark we have our first clear signs that some very bad things have happened in the motel office. Billy walks around with a water jug he was instructed to fill and in the process he wanders around what has become a crime scene. Four smears of blood in the form of a person’s hand streak the desk and a man in the background slumps in a chair, brutally stabbed. As Billy moves, we see a woman lying behind the counter, throat cut, much blood pooled about. SR: SSSSS 0:23:50. Two men (the same as in the opening) barge into Tom’s diner (not on the corner) and demand more than after-hours service with coffee and pie. Leland pulls a gun on Tom, but when he instructs his cohort Billy to dispense with a female patron, Tom refuses to stand for it. He smashes the coffee carafe against the side of his head, jumps the counter, picks up his gun and kills Billy whose body falls through the glass of the front door. Leland pulls a boot knife and jams it in Tom’s foot. Tom wheels around and blows his jaw off with his own gun. Suddenly, it’s over. SR: SSSSS 0:55:10. Tom’s second act of violence is polishing off Carl and his henchmen on his front lawn. After gentle encouragements (and the leverage of abducting Tom’s son), Carl suggests Tom do as he’s asked. Tom would rather not and thus after politely making a request of his own, that Carl and his men beat it, Carl flexes his muscles and dispatches a man on it. After he pulls a gun on him as a final attempt to get him to go with them, Tom wraps his arm around the guy’s, breaks it at the elbow, chops him in the neck and proceeds to ram his open palm up into his nose four times, shattering it and forcing the shards up into his brain. With his gun, he shoots down Carl’s right-hand man before taking a hit from Carl himself. Crawling toward the weapon, Tom is powerless to stop Carl from kicking it away, requesting any last words he might have. Saying them, Tom lies there and waits for whatever would come next. When it did, it wasn’t from any direction he might have predicted – Jack picks up Tom’s shotgun and blasts Carl away, spattering his father with his blood as he goes down. SR: SSSSS 1:24:10. Answering a late-night phone call, Tom realizes things aren’t going to stop following him and that he must do something about it. He drives all the way out to Philadelphia to see his brother Richie before he comes to visit him. Ruben comes up behind him with a wire garrote and tries to wrap it around Tom’s neck, his left hand getting in the way. As Ruben struggles and continues to try to work away on his victim, Tom pushes off the desk and tumbles backward in his chair, kicking upward into Ruben’s jaw. He then breaks the other man’s leg at the knee before using his own on Ruben’s nose, thereafter chopping the first guy in the throat before elbowing Ruben, again in the nose. Richie calmly reaches for his gun from his top-right drawer while Tom stomps on the first’s neck, once hard. A third man comes in to save the day, but Tom breaks his neck before fleeing the scene. Noticing the door ajar, Richie heads outside to see if he can find where Tom ran off to, leaving a fourth man inside. The door suddenly slams shut, sealing him in. Tom breaks his nose with his forehead before shooting him point blank in the chest. Opening the door to his “brother,” Tom stares him down deliberately before putting a quick shot through his head. SR: SSSSS It’s interesting to note, I think, that a film called A History of Violence could be rated only a 2. As the above testifies, it’s not per se a violent film but a study of the effects of violence on a small town and on family structure.

Noticing the door ajar, Richie heads outside to see if he can find where Tom ran off to, leaving a fourth man inside. The door suddenly slams shut, sealing him in. Tom breaks his nose with his forehead before shooting him point blank in the chest. Opening the door to his “brother,” Tom stares him down deliberately before putting a quick shot through his head. SR: SSSSS It’s interesting to note, I think, that a film called A History of Violence could be rated only a 2. As the above testifies, it’s not per se a violent film but a study of the effects of violence on a small town and on family structure.

Body: That is hilarious indeed, but it should read "the content can affect and infect your mind". ;) Anyhow, here's the breakdown for Lucio Fulci's City of the Living Dead: City of the Living Dead aka: paura nella città dei morti viventi year 1980 directed by lucio fulci starring christopher george, katriona maccoll, carlo de mejo Qs: 12. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:10:30. A rotting corpse in a highly advanced state of decay, complete with worms. SR: SSSSS “THE BODY PURGING” 0:31:30. A girl’s eyes start to bleed…then it gets really sick. She starts to foam at the mouth as if rabid, the foam quickly turning red and then into strange things: intestines – yards and yards of them – and then organs of several shapes, sizes and colors. In time, the girl vomits up her innards while the specter of the suicidal priest stares her down. After the body purging, a hand reaches into the boy’s hair and grabs out a chunk of his brains, leaving a grapefruit-sized hole. SR: ããããã 0:34:48. A writhing pile of I-don't-know-what. SR: SSSSS 0:42:14. An unscrupulous funeral director has a bite taken out of his left wrist, apparently by a discontented corpse he was trying to steal from. SR: SSSSS 0:54:30. Walls bleed…a sure sign something is amiss. SR: SSSSS 0:58:30. Mr. Ross takes on some vigilante justice and bores Bob’s head with a rather substantial drill in his garage. SR: SSSSS 1:02:23. A maelstrom of maggots, millions of ‘em, spray in through an open window. The idea and the feel of the squirming things causes one woman to throw up (no organs this time.) 1:04:43. Blood drips onto the dinner table from where it soaked through the ceiling. SR: SSSSS 1:08:30. Another handful of brains…yummy. SR: SSSSS 1:20:20. A feast of the dead leaves three bodies in its wake. SR: SSSSS 1:22:15. A third handful of brains (seems to be the preferred method of execution) is extracted and rats feast in the gaping hole. SR: SSSSS 1:23:21. A jab into a zombie draws blood, but saves a life. SR: SSSSS 1:28:10. Another jab into a form of the undead (this time the ubiquitous but still deceased Fr. Thomas) is a gooey one, slime and ooze of all sorts falling out of the hole just before he and his army of walking corpses collectively burn to cinders. SR: SSSSS And for Hostel: Hostel year 2006 directed by eli roth starring jay hernandez, derek richardson, eythor gudjonsson Qs: 13. AR: SSSSSSSSSS 0:01:15. This is the way horror fans like it – sick and straight off the top. It’s clear some sort of cleanup effort is going on, but what’s being cleaned isn’t clear, but rather pink as in diluted blood being carried away by suds, washed off of tile walls. In a later shot a gooey mixture of blood, teeth and who knows what else circles a drain. SR: SSSSS 0:33:20. “I go home.” Yeah, right. Oli’s head is shown as the shot widens to be detached from his body, shown to be a pile of gore in the background. SR: SSSSS 0:41:57. Josh wakes up in hell, a bag over his head. The bag is removed and his own private Satan starts the show. Picking up a hammer drill, the man bores four holes in his victim’s body: two in his chest just above his pecs and two on his legs, one in each thigh. When he puts the tool back on the table, it has twists of reddened flesh spiraled around it. After informing him about why he was even in that position, the man slices both of his Achilles tendons and feigns letting him go before stopping him at the door, dragging him back and slitting his throat. SR: SSSSS 0:56:58. Remember the guy who wanted to be a surgeon? He gets his wish – at doing an autopsy at least. Josh’s body is on the table before him, his chest opened up, blood everywhere. Look carefully on the close-up: a good part of the skin on the back of his left hand and going up his arm to the elbow has been removed, tendons and musculature visible. SR: SSSSS 0:58:01. While Pax is being dragged off to his hole, we see many interesting things in the rooms he passes by: a well-bled victim getting his neck cut open; two anonymous female victims and a man being beaten severely about the head. SR: SSSSS 1:04:20. Pax’s torturer revs up a chainsaw and holds it in front of his face for a few seconds before he starts to vomit past his ball gag. Once that’s over, the man slices off a good chunk of Pax’s hand, two fingers bouncing on the concrete floor, blood pouring. Slipping in the blood, the chainsaw man falls hard to the ground and the revving tool starts carving into him, burying its chain deep, cutting his leg in half, blood simply flying from the massive wound. To put an end to the matter, Pax fires a round straight through his head. Personally, I would have carved the turkey up with his own weapon of choice, but that’s me. SR: SSSSS 1:05:54. Pax puts down the guard and picks up his fingers. SR: SSSSS “THE CORPSE DISPOSAL UNIT” 1:07:05. A room Pax stumbles into while trying to evade the guards he soon discovers to be corpse disposal unit where used bodies go to be processed. Shortly, a man comes in and Pax has to think quick. Stowing away on one of the body carts, loaded with corpses, Pax can merely hope he won’t be discovered. Along the way (1:07:54) he passes a room painted thickly with blood, the whole messy scene being hosed down, awaiting the next victim. After they descend in an elevator, the cart-pusher tries to get the load of bodies off, but somebody’s hand is stopping him. After picking it up and stuffing it by Pax’s head, the man rolls on into the chop shop. Plucking a body off of Pax, he uses inordinately large cleavers to hack the meat up for easier handling, carrying a tray of gore off-screen and dumping it. When Pax opens his eyes, who does he sees but his lip-stitched friend Josh on a nearby table. Picking up the next body, Pax loses his fingers and has to fumble around, trying to keep movements minimal as possible, to retrieve them. Going into a leg with a grinder, the man turns around in time enough to pick one up and haul it off with everything else in the next tray-full. A brief shot follows of his table of gore, several legs strewn about, flaps of skin and muscle draped over the side, blood everywhere. Various blades and axes are held up on the wall behind, awaiting the next body to divvy and ditch. We find in the next shot what’s being done with the personal pieces: one by one the large guy is tossing them into the fire. Pax sneaks up on him and when he turns around beats him one good time in the head with a large hammer of some type, then takes off. SR: ããããã 1:17:35. The man who accosted Pax in the dressing room is busying burning Kana’s eye with a blowtorch. As he turns around to tell Pax to buzz off, we can see the organ is hanging from its optic nerve, greasy blood filling the hole where it used to be. Pax shoots and kills him before tending to her. Trying to help in his small way, Pax picks up a small pair of scissors and cuts the nerve the eye is dangling by. A run of a custard-yellow, watery substance pours from the spot down the screaming girl’s face, joining the blood. SR: SSSSS 1:21:14. When Pax and Kana fly the coop, they come upon who else but the two degenerate women who led them along the whole time and the creep who recommended the hostel in the first place. Pax floors it and slams into all three, killing one right away, juicy red running in a stream off the sidewalk. The other girl doesn’t get a lot of time to contemplate what happened before a speeding car driven by the men after Pax her all over the street, dragging her body for a short way. SR: SSSSS 1:22:05. Being called to pay the toll, Pax and Kana got by with a bag chock full of sweets. When the bad guys come by that same way, they are far less fortunate. First they clobber them with large rocks, then they beat their heads in with large heavy things. SR: SSSSS 1:24:45. Just when Pax thought they had it made, Kana sees her reflection at the railway station and gets an idea just how disfigured she is. She reaches up toward her destroyed eye, but gives up before she gets close. Turning away resignedly, she looks at the front of the first oncoming train and leaps directly in front of it, splattering herself across #742 288-4. Her head gets crushed into a gooey blob by the wheels, squashed like a grape, her blood splattering bystanders. Two points are for the red visuals, the third for the idea of girl being hit by a train like a fly by a windshield. SR: SSSSS 1:28:15. Pax just keeps having the luck, doesn’t he? Dripping with serendipity, he happens upon who else but the intellectual on the train who wanted to be a surgeon. Following him into the restroom and locking everyone else out, Pax taunts him from a nearby stall with a business card for Elite Hunting. When the man realizes somebody knows, he starts to freak, but doesn’t get far. When he reaches for the card, Pax seizes his hand and slices off the same two fingers as those he lost. Pax then kicks in the door, slams the man’s face down in the bowl he was just sitting on (think about that for a moment), holding it there until he near drowns. Pulling him back, Pax lets him get his first, last and only look at his killer in a reflection in a dispenser before he slits his throat. SR: SSSSS The rating of a perfect 7 is upgraded to a 8 based on the very concept of being able to pay money to torture as sickly as you want and then kill a person, free to do whatever to the corpse for as long as you like. It’s a diseased idea and wicked follow-through. It does chill me deeply to consider that somewhere in the world, unthinkable inhuman tragedies like these play out every day. If you’ve heard the hype, it was “based on true events,” but these extend no further than to Quentin Tarantino (surprised?) who reportedly discovered the site, triggering Eli Roth to spin the idea into a feature-length film. Whether or not the site was for real not even they knew, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it were.

Body: Here goes: What you're looking at is not for the faint of heart. It is a shameless compilation of extremely detailed and fearless looks at the most brutal, gory, shocking, sickening and violent scenes to be shown on the big and small screen. It is constantly being updated as new films arrive and I discover old ones, as unrated cuts are unearthed and the arcane becomes available. As it is, for the films currently included, it is a thorough record of the grisly gore and painful violence exacted on the poor souls forced to inhabit them. No, not all of the movies included are gems. Some are, in point of fact, quite bad. For the most part however, the films listed are decent fare with more than a few real winners and several pure gold. Quality aside, Blood, Guts and Gore considers things people can agree on: watching displays of violence and bloodshed is disturbing and gets attention. Any doubters of this I refer to their local news. I’m not here to impart a lesson or to speak out against these savage and horrific acts for this: they’re not real. It’s smoke and mirrors make-believe and the charge for real life violence and death falls not on the authors of gritty, coarse novels and filmmakers but on those who can’t tell what’s right from what’s wrong and it’s as simple as that. Therefore, I wish to expose you, the reader, to a mesmerizing level of detail in talking about the most awesome scenes of what the subtitle states: blood, gore, extreme violence and disturbing images. It isn’t a social commentary on the depiction of brutality in America or anywhere else in the world, a deeply philosophical take on human aggression or anything but a straightforward project with a specific aim: frightening and horrific things. Put simply, it was something I thought of doing and I did it. J There is however a strong case for making certain points here and again, which I do. This is because to a lot of people there is something to be said for those who make and those who watch not just horror but films that carry such elements. To them, anyone who makes or views such things must have something wrong upstairs, a sickness of some kind. Truth is, that may go for a number of cases worldwide but at the same time it’s not everyone. Many people who film, write, watch and/or study horror or similar genres are stable people who simply like a good jolt now and again with perhaps a touch of grimness for a thrill.

Body: Having seen and enjoyed all three of them, I keep coming back to Gray's Anatomy because Steven Soderberg's poppy and lively cinematography not only compliments the narrative, but enhances it and engages the viewer on a substantive (the story and performance) and a visual level. His approach was entirely fitting not only because of how it spiced up the already entertaining and madcap story but because said story was about his eye and the world of vision, something that Soderberg's direction punched up several notches ;).
