6 More Horror Movies No-One Survives

WhatCulture

There's no escaping the clutches of these grim horror flicks.

Transcript

00:00 The world of horror is a cruel, cruel beast, and sometimes it's even crueler than others.

00:05 It's one thing to have most characters in a movie die and just leave one final girl,

00:10 but it's a whole entire other thing when everyone dies.

00:14 Yeah, that's pretty bad going.

00:15 Picking up from our previous list of 10 horror movies where everyone dies,

00:19 due to popular request, we've put together a few more.

00:22 Thanks to that previous list, we can already tick these off the list,

00:25 so no comments asking for these. Go back to the other video.

00:28 We will have No Eden Lake, No Paranormal Activity,

00:31 Cabin Fever, The Final Destination franchise, Quarantine, 28 Weeks Later,

00:35 The Blair Witch Project, Zack Snyder's Dawn of the Dead,

00:38 The Cabin in the Woods, and of course, the iconic Night of the Living Dead.

00:41 These are all off the table.

00:43 So let's get to looking at six new ones.

00:45 I'm Amy from WhatCulture, and here are six more horror movies no one survives.

00:51 6. Inbred

00:52 Receiving its premiere in 2011 before a low-key release the following year,

00:57 British horror film Inbred is definitely a picture that will stick with you

01:00 long after its 90-minute runtime is finished.

01:03 Is Inbred particularly good? No.

01:06 But what makes it stand out, though, is that it's brimming with gratuitous, gruesome gore.

01:11 Even now, over a decade since its release,

01:14 Inbred remains a surprisingly jarring watch for those who choose to revisit it.

01:19 Plot-wise, the movie centres on four troubled youths

01:21 who are taken to a small Yorkshire village to carry out some community service,

01:26 all done under the supervision of two caretakers.

01:28 Of course, this is a horror movie and nothing can go as planned,

01:31 so the group find themselves not exactly welcomed with open arms by the locals.

01:36 As it turns out, the residents of said village like to brutalise any visitors in spectacular fashion.

01:41 By that, it means that the outsiders are kidnapped and then used as part of a creepy stage show

01:46 put on by the locals for the locals,

01:48 with such shows ultimately resulting in the death of these star attractions.

01:52 Whether it's by chainsaw, gun, being trampled by a horse, or any number of other horrible things,

01:58 all six of Inbred's protagonists wind up dead.

02:01 5. House of a Thousand Corpses

02:04 Rob Zombie's directorial debut, House of a Thousand Corpses,

02:07 infamously introduced the world to the Firefly family,

02:10 a clan of twisted, murderous sorts.

02:12 The Firefly crew would go on to cause chaos and carnage for a further two movies,

02:17 not even stopped by their purported demise at the end of The Devil's Rejects.

02:21 They appeared again, of course, in 2019's Three from Hell.

02:24 As House of a Thousand Corpses opens up,

02:26 the attention is on four friends travelling cross-country

02:29 in order to pen a book on the most unique roadside attractions.

02:32 Upon hearing from Captain Spaulding about the twisted legend of Dr. Satan,

02:36 our buddies venture off to learn more about this sinister figure.

02:39 Unfortunately for them, damage to their car means an initially warm stay at the nearby home of the Fireflies.

02:45 But, of course, by the end of the film, this stay has not been warm and welcoming at all.

02:49 In fact, they're all dead.

02:51 For Rainn Wilson's Bill, he's killed and sculpted into a fish boy.

02:54 Jennifer Jostens' Mary is erratically, frantically stabbed by Baby.

02:59 Chris Hardwick's Jerry is tortured to death by the aforementioned Dr. Satan.

03:03 And Erin Daniels' poor, poor Denise is maniacally hunted down by the Fireflies.

03:08 Before then, she's the last to be seen being operated on and, presumably, killed by Dr. Satan.

03:14 Four - Unfriended

03:16 For every positive of social media, there are a handful of negatives.

03:20 All usually due to the sort of idiots who have to ruin things for everyone.

03:24 In 2014's Unfriended, it's Facebook in the crosshairs.

03:27 To set the stage, we have Laura Barnes,

03:30 a high school student who took her own life after a video was circulated on Facebook

03:34 of her drunkenly passed out and having soiled herself.

03:37 Skip Forward a Year and the supposed friends that were involved in the incident and its filming

03:41 are now seemingly haunted by Laura's spirit.

03:44 Being a tech-driven horror film, these hauntings actually play out through Skype chats,

03:49 with Laura exacting revenge from beyond the grave and tormenting her supposed BFFs.

03:54 By the time the penny drops that the mysterious, murderous Billy227 Skype user

03:58 really is somehow the presence of Laura, it's too late for our core cast of teens,

04:03 with every single one of them winding up dead via bleach, blender, gunshot and, uh,

04:08 a curling iron shoved down the throat.

04:10 To top it all off, Laura then uploads a video of all of this happening onto Facebook,

04:16 and closes off the movie with her spirit lunging towards the camera.

04:19 3. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre - The Beginning

04:22 The Texas Chainsaw Massacre - The Beginning has to be one of the great,

04:26 so near but so far final kills,

04:29 with Leatherface appearing in the backseat of an escaping car to slice up Jordana Brewster's Chrissy.

04:34 As a movie, The Beginning is bang average at best,

04:37 but with the slaughtering of Chrissy, Leatherface had finished his job,

04:40 and made sure that the picture had zero survivors.

04:43 This 2006 prequel picture details how Thomas Hewitt became Leatherface,

04:47 and the film opens with an early death as Thomas' mother dies whilst giving

04:51 birth to the future chainsaw enthusiast.

04:53 From there, the now-adult Tommy kills his boss, before then getting the chance to carve up five

04:58 pretty young things by the time The Beginning wraps up,

05:00 the last of these being the aforementioned Chrissy.

05:03 Away from that, Leatherface also, of course, manages to polish off a couple of other people,

05:07 including two cops who manage to get in his way.

05:09 As of the time of the writing of this script,

05:11 Leatherface has been seen to have killed a total of 55 people,

05:15 and The Beginning was the picture that gave us a glimpse at the Maniac's first few formative years.

05:19 2. 2001 Maniacs

05:22 A loose remake of the 1964 movie that was inspired by the 1940s musical,

05:28 Tim Sullivan's 2001 Maniacs is a great little popcorn horror flick with some

05:33 fine turns from genre faves Robert England, Lin Shaye, and Peter Stormare.

05:38 Set in the Georgia town of Pleasant Valley, this picture finds six college kids and a few bikers

05:43 stumble upon said town just as the annual Guts and Glory celebrations are taking place.

05:47 Yes, the event title sounds a bit ominous, but then you can lighten up by knowing

05:51 it's actually just a memorial for those who died in the American Civil War.

05:56 It's just that actually, we're mourning the ones that died on the Confederate side,

05:59 and Pleasant Valley itself is actually a cemetery site.

06:03 After all but two of our protagonists are slaughtered in some truly gruesome ways,

06:07 the reveal of Pleasant Valley's truth is made out once two survivors manage to get out and make it

06:12 to the nearby Sheriff's office. There, the duo are informed that Pleasant Valley no longer exists,

06:17 and that the site is nowadays a graveyard. Rightfully freak the hell out, our heroic

06:22 pair pile onto a motorbike and drive off into the sunset, only to then be decapitated by a

06:27 well-placed slice of barbed wire. And with that, every one of this 2005 movie's key characters

06:34 are nicely killed off.

06:35 1. The Dyatlov Pass Incident

06:38 From director Renny Harlin, as in the helmer of the likes of Die Hard 2, Deep Blue Sea,

06:44 Cliffhanger, and A Nightmare on Elm Street 4, the Dyatlov Pass Incident is loosely based on

06:49 the real-life deaths and disappearances of nine hikers in 1959. In regards to the "loosely based"

06:55 angle here, Harlin uses these disappearances as a launching point for a film that goes utterly nuts,

07:00 that throws time-travelling, mutants, and time-travelling mutants into the equation.

07:05 Also known as Devil's Pass in some markets, this 2013 film focuses on five modern-day American

07:11 students who head to the snowy Russian mountains where the events of '59 reportedly took place.

07:16 Desperate to unravel the truth behind this mystery, three of the group wind up dead during

07:21 the early goings of the picture, and the remaining duo then encounter the aforementioned mutants.

07:25 Trapped in a minuscule bunker, the pair of Jensen and Holly have screeching beasts outside their

07:30 door as a strange wormhole appears in their tiny, temporary safe haven. Left with no choice,

07:36 the two opt to step through this wormhole and end up back in 1959. As a result of this time-travelling,

07:42 Jensen and Holly have mutated, and as the realisation kicks in, they see that they are

07:47 indeed the same mutants who've been stalking their future selves in the present. Sort of meaning that

07:51 the human versions of them are dead, and died in the present when they travelled back to the past,

07:57 which also kind of makes their death date the 50s. They're sort of now dead before the present

08:02 moment ever really arrived, and now they're weird-looking, crusty-ass mutants. Not one of

08:07 the worst ways to go on this list, but definitely one of the weirdest. And with that, we've reached

08:11 the end of this list of six more horror movies that no one survives. If you reckon you could

08:16 have given us four more to make it up to a nice round ten, then please let us know in the comments

08:21 down below with what you would have included. Remember, no repeats of the first list. Don't

08:24 be lazy. If you don't fancy that, though, head over to whatculture.com to find more lists and
