Remy: Achilles Cut (Pet Semetary)
Recommended Videos
Don’t even act like this doesn’t make you squirm, because the thought of this makes EVERYONE squirm. You know the scene. The little dead kid is hiding under the old guy’s bed, and he reaches out with a scalpel and cuts his Achilles tendon, rendering the man’s leg useless.
Do you know why this bothers us? Because when we see it, we imagine it. That scary thought of someone hiding under your bed, waiting to hurt you, and then the idea of your ankle being slashed, as you fall to the ground, bringing you to eye level with an evil dead kid (not Evil Dead like the movie, but as in he is evil and he is dead) – yup, thanks for the mental scar. This kill plays on so many of our fears, and does so in a way that ensures we never forget it.
