00:00 When did they flip you? Tell me, don't lie.
00:02 Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the most brutal and memorable
00:08 revenge kills in The Sopranos. Warning, there will be spoilers of a bloody nature.
00:13 Maybe one of your other relatives, then.
00:15 What, I gotta stand here being threatened now?
00:17 Number 10. Chucky Signore
00:21 Retaliation murders are always the bloodiest.
00:24 Tom, Jesus Christ, relax.
00:25 Chucky Signore was a soldier on Junior's crew during his feud with Tony Soprano,
00:30 given the assignment to get rid of Tony. Tony and the rest of his crew thus plan to whack him.
00:34 As Chucky prepares to sail on his boat, Tony engages in a brief but friendly conversation
00:39 with him. He then whips out a pistol from a fish and shoots him several times in the chest.
00:43 Look at this baby, I caught right off the point here.
00:45 Using cement blocks, he and Silvio cast Chucky into the sea to sleep with the fishes.
00:52 Talk about cold-blooded efficiency.
00:54 This man, you know him.
00:55 Number 9. Fabian Petrullio
01:01 The way this went down, this is my call. I got about to finish myself.
01:06 Petrullio's case is among the most complicated. Petrullio was originally a gangster who went into
01:11 the Witness Protection Program after he snitched. His ensuing drug-related activities, however,
01:16 got him thrown out of the program. He now gives speeches to criminal justice students,
01:20 prone to reminiscing about his old mafioso years. As Tony looks for colleges with his daughter,
01:25 Meadow, he recognizes Petrullio and begins his pursuit.
01:28 The two engage in a cat-and-mouse game that ends with Tony trapping him at a travel agency,
01:35 exterminating him with a piece of wire. A sad end to a sad case.
01:39 Number 8. Ralph "Ralphie" Ciparretto
01:46 Ralph is among the most brutal and obnoxious characters in the show.
01:49 It's hard to best beating your pregnant, exotic dancer girlfriend to death, after all.
01:57 So it's no surprise when he gets the axe, and all thanks to a horse.
02:01 Suspicious fires at a racehorse stall have Tony suspecting Ralph's involvement.
02:05 Although Ralph denies it, he seems to imply that he had done it for the insurance money
02:14 to pay for his son's medical bills. Grieving for the horse, Tony fights and polishes off Ralph,
02:20 and has his nephew Christopher help dispose of the body. Due to Ralph's
02:24 abrasive personality, his death was not investigated too closely.
02:27 Number 7. Matthew "Matt" Bevilacqua
02:37 Sometimes, characters are motivated by something other than money or honor.
02:41 Frustrated over his low status, Matt, along with Sean Gismonte, plan to dispose of Christopher
02:47 Moltisanti. That way, they can impress Richie April and move up in rank.
02:51 This plan fails horrifically, as Moltisanti does away with Gismonte instead. Not only that,
03:01 but Matt is reproached by an unimpressed April for his reckless act.
03:09 Matt's fate effectively sealed, Tony and Salvatore Bonpensiero finish him off.
03:14 They have enough fellow feeling, however, to offer the kid a coke before they do him in.
03:18 Tough luck, kid.
03:18 Number 6. Salvatore Bonpensiero
03:26 This cat burglar turned made man was a major player in the early seasons of the show.
03:30 As one of Tony Soprano's closest friends, his reveal as a secret FBI informant was
03:35 particularly hard to take.
03:36 Finally convinced of his betrayal via night terrors, Tony murders him on his boat.
03:41 Bonpensiero's death was weighty enough to affect even the cast members,
03:45 who were grieved by his departure.
03:46 The show tended to keep its core cast of characters, some of them even making it to
03:54 the bitter end. Alas, it was not in the cards for Bonpensiero.
03:58 Number 5. Christopher Moltisanti
04:03 One of the most impactful deaths of the series was also the most tragic.
04:07 Ever since the loss of his father, Christopher looked up to his uncle Tony as a father figure,
04:12 and his need for validation ended up being his undoing.
04:14 His substance use disorder made him such a liability that Tony had to threaten to kill
04:20 him to force him to go to rehab. But after the death of his fiancé, he reverts to his old ways.
04:25 The final straw comes after he crashes the car with Tony inside, and the latter finally snaps.
04:30 After all Christopher had done for him, it was all for nothing.
04:34 Such is the way of the mafioso game.
04:36 Number 4. Phil Leotardo
04:43 One of the biggest and baddest of Tony Soprano's enemies,
04:46 the Lubritazzis, finally get their comeuppance.
04:49 Upon being released from prison, Phil becomes the boss of the crime family.
04:53 His war with Tony grows deadlier with each extermination, and it was never certain whether
04:57 Tony would be the one to kill him, or end up being Phil's victim himself.
05:00 But at last, Tony's death is the end of the story.
05:08 The story of the Lubritazzis is a story that is not only about the death of a man,
05:12 but also about the death of a woman.
05:14 The Lubritazzis are a group of men who are known for their love of the police,
