One of the most intense moments of one of the most intense films ever made, Gaspar Noe makes the Twitch Top Kills list with a little help from a fire extinguisher. Nothing fun about this one ...

Yikes. I was hoping this feature wouldn't turn into a brutal kill list. You could add the scene in Flashpoint where Yen kills the main baddies' henchman in the tent, but at least I didn't see the poor guy's face. That's not going to be my submission though.
Yeah this one is just awful,awful,awful! As a fan of cinema I was shocked to see the line so clearly drawn between violence that's "cinematic" or "Stylized" and the unflinching realism that's just plain sick.
If all violence in the movies looked like this no one would go to the movies. Hate this scene but gotta give it up to the technical brilliance and the quality of Irreversible.
I keep wanting to contribute to this but I've just seen "Piranha 3D" so now I have this feeling like what's the use? There's a complete top-100 right there...
I'm sure most of us are desensitized in general to gore but this scene did a fine job of getting under my skin too. No need for me to click the video, just reading the headline makes me see the scene in my head. *shudder*
i had to verify my age to watch the tom and jerry fun of the machete trailer but i didn't for this.
that's odd.
are there any tom and jerry clips in this list? even though they never actually die they are the best.

Now that the Razzie Awards for the worst films of the year have devolved into cheap shots at easy targets, perhaps it's time for their foreign equivalents to carry on the torch. Consider France's Gérard Awards, which, at the very least, have a lot more fun with the titles of their prizes. They also manage to put a few awards-darlings...

No worries, guys, this is the only grim one like this in the queue so far. The rest of them are fun ones ...

The video cut off before the scene finished, not fair. There's quite a few more drops of the extinguisher to the face after Dupontel stands up.
well...i suppose this is a top kill...but its not fun to watch. I prefer crazy bloodsplotions!
Reminds me of the wine bottle scene in Pans Labyrinth. Yuck.
