00:00Are you痛?
00:04It's a lie, but I can only believe it.
00:08Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're looking at the most brutal acts of retribution in horror movies.
00:14There will be spoilers.
00:16I know you like to watch, don't you?
00:20Trimugasi's Final Cut, The Platform
00:22The prison in The Platform is hell in a tower.
00:25Prisoners are fed via a platform with food that's lowered throughout the facility.
00:29The film follows Goring, who finds himself imprisoned with a man named Trimugasi.
00:52Unfortunately for Goring, Trimugasi is a cannibal.
00:55After tying up Goring, he begins cutting into Goring's leg,
00:58just when it looks like everything is over for Goring,
01:00another inmate, Miharu, arrives, and she's able to wound Trimugasi.
01:06With her encouragement, Goring is able to turn the tables on Trimugasi,
01:09and not only kills him, but also eats his flesh.
01:14Jen's Quest, Revenge
01:16What starts off as a romantic getaway in the desert for Jen quickly becomes a nightmare.
01:20Jennifer?
01:23Just a friend.
01:26She came for two days before...
01:31Anyway, Stan Dimitri, my associates.
01:35Hi.
01:36Not only does her boyfriend Richard turn out to be married,
01:38but she's assaulted by one of his friends.
01:40Things go from bad to worse when Richard finds out about what happened.
01:43Instead of offering her help, he and friends instead attack her and leave her for dead.
01:48Despite her dire circumstances, Jen comes back to hunt down the men who have wronged her,
01:53taking them out one by one.
02:03All in all, it's brutal, but you can't say they didn't have it coming.
02:07Mary's Payback
02:08Urban Legends, Bloody Mary
02:09Mary Banner was just an innocent girl looking to enjoy her prom night,
02:13but a cruel prank ruined everything.
02:15Lured by a group of jocks, she ends up locked in a trunk and suffocates to death.
02:19There you are.
02:21Where's the girl?
02:22I don't know.
02:23I thought she was in here, but she's not.
02:26Shit.
02:26She probably passed out somewhere.
02:2835 years later,
02:29Mary returns to exact revenge on the descendants of those responsible.
02:32She doesn't just haunt,
02:33she makes sure they suffer in ways as horrific as the pain she endured.
02:37One victim is electrocuted,
02:38another is attacked by spiders in a truly skin-crawling moment,
02:42others die off in really gruesome ways.
02:44Perhaps the most horrifying death goes to Roger,
02:47who's trapped in a tanning bed and roasted alive.
02:50Roger!
02:51Roger!
02:53Roger!
02:54Yeah, it's as bad as it sounds.
02:56Beth Gets Even, Hostel Part 2.
02:58Revenge can be very appealing,
03:00especially when you've been through the worst like Beth and her friends.
03:04Hot springs?
03:05That sounds so therapeutic.
03:08I want to go.
03:09No, it's very easy.
03:10You just have to switch trains in Prague.
03:13It could be nice.
03:16You know,
03:17I don't have gross guys for one weekend.
03:22Okay, we'll go.
03:23The girls are tricked into going to a luxurious spa by a nude model from their art class,
03:28only to end up as victims of the twisted elite hunting club.
03:31After being captured and tied to a chair,
03:33Beth is left to the mercy of Stuart.
03:35Before she can be tortured and killed,
03:37Beth is able to turn the tables on him.
03:38She seduces him into untying her,
03:40and from there,
03:41she overpowers him,
03:42and is to buy her freedom from the club,
03:45but not before emasculating Stuart.
03:47And the nude model who set Beth up,
04:06let's just say,
04:07she learns betrayal comes with a deadly price.
04:10Erin's perfect plan.
04:12You're next.
04:13If you're plotting to eliminate your family for inheritance money,
04:16make sure there's no one like Erin from a survivalist background.
04:19I've never seen you act like this before.
04:21Well, it's a unique situation.
04:23Failure to do so won't just ruin your plan,
04:25it'll end in pure carnage.
04:27Because not only will she pulverize one of your guy's skulls with a meat tenderizer,
04:31she'll crush another's head with a blender.
04:33Then, when you try to sweet talk her into siding with you,
04:36she'll be disgusted.
04:37She'll stab you in the neck.
04:38Yep, Erin doesn't mess around.
04:40I can't believe you were in on this.
04:42Come on, babe.
04:46Crossing her is a fatal mistake,
04:48because when it comes to vengeance,
04:49she's in a league of her own.
04:51Mark and Josh's end.
04:53Midsommar.
04:53After witnessing old folks leap off of a cliff in some wild ritual,
04:57you'd think Josh and Mark would tread more carefully.
05:00They don't.
05:01Mark urinates on a sacred tree.
05:02You pissed on the ancestral tree.
05:04The tree?
05:05Yes, yes.
05:06So what?
05:07It turns out this strange community doesn't take disrespect lightly,
05:20whether it's deliberate or not.
05:22Inga, a commune member,
05:23lures him away,
05:24and before you know it,
05:25he's turned into a creepy scarecrow.
05:27Josh does something even dumber.
05:29He sneaks into their temple to take photographs of some sacred text,
05:32which he was warned against doing.
05:34Close the door.
05:35We're not supposed to be in here.
05:36He gets caught and is bludgeoned to death by another commune member,
05:40who wears Mark's face as a mask.
05:42It's a terrifying price to pay for disobedience.
05:45Surprise!
05:46The Invisible Man.
05:48We can't deny that we were on Cecilia's side
05:50when she turned Adrian's own twisted game on him.
05:52Trapped in a violent relationship with her manipulative boyfriend,
05:55she starts out broken.
05:57Hey, see.
06:00He's not out there.
06:02I promise.
06:03Even after she escapes,
06:05he doesn't leave her alone.
06:06He fakes his death,
06:07and with an invisibility suit,
06:09he torments her psychologically,
06:10frames her for the murder of her sister,
06:12and ultimately destroys her credibility.
06:15To put an end to things once and for all,
06:16she pretends to reconcile with Adrian at his house.
06:19What he doesn't know is that she took one of his invisibility suits,
06:22and uses it to make it look like he took his own life.
06:26Surprise!
06:26With that final brutal act,
06:28she's finally attained both freedom and vengeance.
06:32Red on a rampage.
06:33Mandy.
06:34In this surreal horror,
06:35Nicolas Cage plays Red,
06:37a veteran lumberjack living happily with his girlfriend Mandy.
06:40How was your day?
06:43It was pretty cool.
06:45I was reading that book about the galaxy.
06:50That big, thick one?
06:53Yeah, it's pretty awesome.
06:55Their happy life is shattered when Mandy catches the eye of a deranged cult leader,
06:59Jeremiah Sand.
07:00This unhinged cult breaks into their home and burns Mandy right in front of Red.
07:05However, Red doesn't just grieve, he unleashes hell.
07:09He takes down the demonic biker gang one after another.
07:12Each kill gets more intense and more visceral.
07:14The worst is reserved for Jeremiah.
07:16Red corners him in an underground lair,
07:18and as he begs for his life,
07:20Red crushes his head with his bare hands.
07:23I don't kneel before you.
07:26You kneel before me.
07:29I carry God's gift in my heart.
07:33Not you.
07:35So you kneel before me.
07:38Don't mess with a lumberjack.
07:41Brendan's comeuppance.
07:42Fresh.
07:43Sometimes it's not just about getting even.
07:45It's about making the punishment fit the crime in the most twisted way.
07:49Steve, who is really Brendan,
07:50seems charming at first,
07:51until he drugs Noah and chains her to the floor.
07:54What's going on, Steve?
08:00I'm gonna tell you, but you're gonna freak out.
08:02He reveals that he's a cannibal and also sells human body parts to high-paying clients.
08:06Noah doesn't wait to be rescued.
08:08After her escape attempt fails,
08:10she flirts with him,
08:11and while pretending to want to perform an intimate act on him,
08:14she's able to bite down on his nether region.
08:17I'm gonna cut your heart out!
08:18While he's hurt, she uses the opportunity to free the other women held prisoner,
08:22and together they descend on Brendan,
08:24with Noah delivering the killing blow.
08:26Revenge on Dracula.
08:28Renfield.
08:28What happens when a loyal servant decides to stop serving his dark master?
08:33Hello, my name is Robert Montague Renfield,
08:36and just like all these decent folks,
08:39I'm in a destructive relationship.
08:41In Renfield, it's the beginning of Count Dracula's downfall.
08:44Renfield has spent decades, or even centuries,
08:47doing Dracula's dirty work by feeding him innocent victims and cleaning up his mess.
08:51Somewhere along the way, Renfield decides he's done being a puppet.
08:55Teaming up with Rebecca, a cop who's tired of being pushed around,
08:57they take the fight to Dracula.
08:59After an all-out blood-soaked brawl,
09:01they don't just kill Dracula,
09:03they try everything.
09:04I'm not even 100% sure this will kill him,
09:07but I do know it will take him a long, long time to come back from.
09:12They trap him, crush him to pieces,
09:14encase those pieces in concrete, and scatter his remains.
09:17Dracula has seen many things, but never a revenge so intense.
09:22Bloody Prom.
09:23Carrie.
09:24Hopefully the students at this prom night dance like there was no tomorrow,
09:27because for most of them, there wouldn't be one.
09:29Following a very cruel prank involving pig's blood,
09:32Carrie's psychic rage ensures she isn't the only one covered in red.
09:37The most tragic part is that most of her victims are completely innocent.
09:50She hallucinated that everyone was laughing at her,
09:52and unfortunately, that was enough for Carrie to turn on them all.
09:55Honestly, those that died first got off easy compared to the ones that she left in the burning gymnasium.
10:01The only small justice is that the real culprits,
10:04Chris and Billy,
10:06met an even worse end via an exploding car.
10:09Galloping on, thriller, a cruel picture.
10:23The kidnapped Madeline endured unspeakable trauma from pimp Tony and the clients who paid to assault her.
10:29So, it's certainly vindicating to see her take out her assailants,
10:33one by one, in gruesome fashion.
10:36Naturally, she saves the best, or in this case, the worst, for last.
10:48Tony is shot in both knees and dragged into a field.
10:52His final fate involves a hole, a rope, and a very speedy horse.
11:07Suffice to say, this exploitation film definitely lived up to its title of a cruel picture.
11:14At the very least, though, Madeline gets serious points for creativity.
11:23Haunted. Shutter.
11:25I think I should just go to the end of the day.
11:29The look of these people said that they have the same spirit.
11:33Talk about being haunted by the past.
11:35This film tells the story of a young photographer
11:38who watched his friends commit a heinous crime against his former girlfriend.
11:42Because of this, she ended up taking her own life.
11:45And, from beyond the grave, she seeks revenge.
11:48As a ghost, she coerces her attackers into taking their own lives, too.
11:52The guilty lover thinks he's being saved for last.
11:55But, instead, she leaves him alive.
11:58Her ghost, however, is a literal weight on his shoulders.
12:10One that he can't escape.
12:12This fate begs the question, what's actually worse?
12:16Death by haunting?
12:17Or, living with the knowledge of everything he's done?
12:20Ghost of a Chance.
12:28Return to house on Haunted Hill.
12:30I saw a man.
12:32He was a patient here.
12:34I think he led an uprising the night that the hospital broke down.
12:37I think he was trying to stop Dr. Vanekut.
12:39As a ghost trapped in a decrepit asylum,
12:42there isn't much else to do besides plot ways to get back at your murderer.
12:46However, Dr. Vanekut apparently didn't consider that
12:49when he performed horrifying experiments on the inmates.
12:53With the power of a mystical idol,
12:55he was even able to control their spirits in the afterlife.
12:59But, once they're freed, they quickly make up for lost time.
13:03No! No!
13:05The group of tortured souls unleashed decades of pent-up aggression on the Doctor,
13:11ripping him to pieces.
13:12It's a downright grisly end.
13:14But, given everything Vanekut put them through,
13:17payback was long overdue.
13:19Laugham, it's evil, has been trapped in that house for over 50 years.
13:23We set it free.
13:24The freaky fate.
13:26Freaks.
13:26Beautiful trapeze artist Cleopatra thinks she's above the so-called freaks
13:31in the Carnival Sideshow.
13:33Freaks! Freaks!
13:35Get off of you!
13:37She plots to marry Hans,
13:40a person of short stature,
13:41and kill him for the inheritance.
13:43When the Sideshow performers welcome her into their ranks,
13:47she mocks and humiliates them.
13:49Her scheme, exposed,
13:51the performers turn her into what she hates the most.
13:54One of them.
13:55How she got that way will never be known.
13:59Some say a jealous lover.
14:01Others,
14:02that it was the code of the freaks.
14:05The film kindly spares us from the actual mutilation,
14:09but the quacky aftermath is enough to prove it wasn't pleasant.
14:14Believe it or not,
14:16there she is.
14:21Sure, she's technically still living,
14:24but in Cleopatra's eyes,
14:25we'd bet this is a fate much worse than death.
14:29Blended.
14:30Unfriended.
14:30It's just a game.
14:31We're just all going to download it and play it, right?
14:33The recipe for this ghastly murder is as follows.
14:36A Skype call,
14:37a guy with a big mouth,
14:38and a very angry spirit.
14:41However,
14:41the most important step is to blend it all together.
14:45Unfortunately for Ken,
14:46he had to learn the last step the hard way.
14:49Of his friends,
14:49his only real crime was being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
14:53Well,
14:53and saying some mean things about the deceased Laura.
14:56Well,
14:56we haven't hit the farts yet,
14:58but thanks to the Ken famous,
15:00Salsa!
15:01Apparently,
15:02that was enough for him to become the main course in her post-mortem haunting.
15:06And if his friends' reactions are any indication,
15:10his dish is a total jaw dropper.
15:17Pointed Payback Audition
15:19Shigaharu is a downtrodden widow looking for love.
15:32So,
15:33he sets up an audition process,
15:35pretending that it's for a movie role.
15:36But he doesn't quite find what he's looking for in Asami.
15:40The fact that he was in a prior relationship enrages his new girlfriend.
15:44Asami drugs him,
15:46and gets some slow,
15:47agonizing payback by the way of needles.
15:50Her vengeance is by no means justified.
16:00There's nothing wrong with the fact that Shigaharu was married before,
16:04but in Asami's twisted mind at least,
16:06this does constitute revenge.
16:08Just thinking about this scene is enough to make even genre diehards shiver in their seats.
16:153. Makeshift Guillotine
16:26I Saw The Devil
16:27This thriller is all about how far a man is willing to go
16:31to avenge the murder of his pregnant wife.
16:33As Kim Soo-young quickly proves,
16:35the answer is very, very far.
16:41He tracks down the killer,
16:43Jang Kyung Chul,
16:44and rigs him up to a guillotine
16:46that will drop when the door opens.
16:48And who's unwittingly doing the honours?
16:51None other than Kyung Chul's own family.
16:56The mode of death is quick,
16:59but right before he goes out,
17:00Kyung Chul is hit with the knowledge
17:02that his own child is dropping the blade.
17:05The most haunting part of this execution
17:07is knowing that the falling knife
17:09will be the last thing Kyung Chul's family sees of him.
17:14The last house on the left
17:22They say no good deed goes unpunished,
17:25but it's some decidedly bad deeds
17:27that are punished in this revenge horror thriller.
17:30After Krug, Francis and Sadie attack Mary and almost kill her,
17:35they take refuge in the Collingwood lake house.
17:38Mary's parents, John and Emma, take them on,
17:41one after the other,
17:42dealing out gruesome kills.
17:44They're still here.
17:45What if they come over here?
17:47I don't be ready.
17:49This means we've got to be ready
17:50for anything.
17:53But The Bloodiest comes in the final minutes.
17:56John decides that he wants his vengeance reheated
17:58and sticks Krug's head into a microwave.
18:01You're paralysed from the neck down.
18:06I didn't have any rope or duct tape.
18:09From there, all it takes is a pop
18:11and Krug's skull has painted the appliance red.
18:14Like most things reheated in a microwave,
18:17it's not ideal.
18:18But it's quick and it gets the job done.
18:26You're gonna be fine.

18:44Hooked.
18:44I spit on your grave.
18:46After Jennifer is assaulted and almost killed,
18:49she's left with a lot of trauma.
18:51She channels it into stalking down
18:53and killing her five attackers.
18:55Please.
18:57Please is what I said to you.
18:58Each of their deaths are sadistic and bloody
19:01and will burn into your brain.
19:03But even among them,
19:05Stan Lee's stands out.
19:07He's captured in a bear trap bound to a tree
19:10and his eyes served up to the crows.
19:13To make it even more twisted,
19:15Jennifer films it all,
19:16just like they filmed what they did to her.
19:19Smell a little pretty for the camera boy.
19:21Leave it up to a novelist to craft such a poetic end.
19:25What are you doing?
19:28Some fishy?
19:29Which vicious act is the most brutal?
19:31Let us know in the comments.
19:33I'm gonna find my way out of here.
19:37You can't afford it.
19:39Don't tell me what I can't afford.
19:41There's nothing I can't afford.
19:43I could buy and sell everyone in this room.
