Remy: First Kill (High Tension)
I am not talking about the oral sex from the decapitated head. No, I am talking about the scene when the madman breaks into the house, shoves the Dad’s head into the stairwell banisters, and then proceeds to sever his head with a bureau. Though I adored horror my whole life, I had NEVER seen a kill like that in a movie, and it just grabbed me and punched me in the gut right away, stealing my breath and never giving it back for the entirety of the movie. While I can openly admit I am no fan of the ending, I still think High Tension is one of the best horror movies ever made from the level of constant panic the viewer feels.
Also, did anyone notice a trend on my list? Five credibility points to whomever tells me what it is in the comments.
I will give you a hint: Aja.
Crap, that was too obvious, huh?
