favorite horror scene in a non-horror movie?

sorry if this thread's been done to death, just blame the newbie! :)

well we all know a lot of violent films that aren't horror movies but still depict some pretty visceral stuff.. mob and war movies spring to mind in particular. i've heard the normandy scene at the start of saving private ryan is pretty strong with bits of head etc flying about.. so what's your favorite?

i have to say, the scene in 'blackhawk down' where the grunt is on the operating table and they're trying to clamp his leg vein was unwatchable for me. so real, so.. 'medical'. i actually fainted dead out in the theatre (never happened to me before, pretty scary when you're brain bubbles back online and you've no idea wtf just happened!).

Ummmmm

Hard to think. Umm... what about...hmm.. whenever Eric Draven would kill someone in "The Crow" it's a fantasy movie, and the deaths weren't SCARY. But some of them were gory, and it kicked ass!

I've never seen Pulp Fiction. But, if you like people getting stabbed in the heart with needles, it happens in "The Crow". Eric Draven stabs some guy in the heart with several needles. Then he carves a crow into the guys chest.

HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Joe Pesci and a pen is a dangerous combination.

your twisted glee is palpable! i have a thing about needles and the ultra-medical, i.e. i can watch dismemberments or entrail-eating all day long but the hell with turning on the open heart surgery channel on t.v...

might have to check this crow out since it has an appearance by the band medicine that i used like

The first Crow features My Life With the Thrill Kill Cult and The Deftones are in the second one. However, they could not save the movie.

Full Metal Jacket where the guy who's always made fun of gets his revenge by shooting the drill sergeant.

cheers venger, there's a lot to see, especially since coming onto this board (uh, that's sorta gross ;)), so it's good to weed out the worthwhile stuff from the blehh
