1

"No question. The scene in Casino where Joe Pesci watches his brother get beaten to death with aluminum baseball bats. The pinging sound haunts me to this day."

2

"Boromir in Fellowship of the Ring."

3

"Gotta be the scene in Inglorious Basterds where Bridget von Hammersmark is strangled to death. That was intense."

4

"Ghost Ship. A cable sweeps through a dance floor so fast and sharp it slice people in half."

5

"In Silence of the Lambs when Hannibal gets a hold of the guard in his cage-cell and starts biting his face. Nine year-old me was not ready for that, and I was less ready to hear my mom start laughing hysterically at the scene, I guess she just found it absurd."

6

"Not technically a "death," but when Wall-E's memory banks got "fried" at the end, I felt that in my soul. Thankfully Pixar would never leave us on a note like that, but damn. That little robot moved me so much."

7

"When the shark kills Quint in Jaws."

8

"The scene in Bone Tomahawk where they rip the guy in half."

9

"When they crush Piggie in "Lord of the Flies". I was probably too young to watch."

10

"Saving Private Ryan is one of my all-time favorite movies, but I can’t watch the scene where Melish gets stabbed."

11

"Curb Stomp from American History X."

12

"John Coffey from The Green Mile. “Don’t put me in the dark, I’s afraid of the dark.”

13

"Bridge to Terabithia. Thanks for killing me inside."

14

"Littlefoot’s mom dying."

15

"The baby gorilla in the animated Tarzan. What the hell, Disney?"

16

"Hereditary, the car crash."

17

"Professor Xavier in Logan. Sir Patrick Stewart is such an actor."
