As always in a Steven Spielberg picture, there is always an undercurrent of comedy. In this case it is the unfortunate timing of tightly wound lawyer Donald Gennaro (Martin Ferrero). Choosing to visit the men's room while a huge T-Rex is escaping is never a wise choice. On this occasion, his bowel moments will be the least of his worries.
VX Poison Gas (The Rock)
Early on in Michael Bay's 1996 action flick, VX poison gas is one of those things "we wish we could un-invent!" The full effects of these dastardly green balls is shown to us in a gruesome format. One soldier while attempting escape gets hit by it, what follows is Elephant Man style mutations as his painful last few moments pay out!
Losing My Head (The Omen)
Throughout this legendary horror, each nasty death predicted comes true in grim fashion. None more so than photographer Keith Jennings (David Warner). Towards the movie's climax, Jennings discovers just what the funny line across his photo comes to represent! Never rule out a lorry carrying glass window panes people.
Explosive (Four Lions)
In Chris Morris' clever satire towards the world of suicide bombers, there are multiple moments of shocking humor. The best one comes from the unfortunate end of Faisal. While running through a field of sheep carrying a bag of explosives- he manages to blow himself up! Previously this guy had been training birds to carry out the deed, imagine how that would have gone?
Sharp as a Razor (A Prophet)
According to Morgan Freeman "Prison is no fairytale world" and that is precisely the case throughout Jacques Audiard's drama. One scene has since become infamous as it sees new convict Malik (Tahar Rahim) slit the throat of troublesome Reyeb with a razor blade (Hichem Yacoubi) to appease a crime-lord. The full effect of this scene is chillingly realistic and will follow Malik at every turn.
