6 More Horror Movies No-One Survives

Australian Cinephile

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

Transcript

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

00:06It's one thing to have most characters in a movie die and just leave one final girl

00:10but it's a whole entire other thing when everyone dies. Yeah that's pretty bad going.

00:16Picking up from our previous list of 10 horror movies where everyone dies,

00:19due to popular request we've put together a few more. Thanks to that previous list we can

00:24already tick these off the list so no comments asking for these, go back to the other video,

00:28we will have No Eden Lake, No Paranormal Activity, Cabin Fever, The Final Destination Franchise,

00:34Quarantine 28 Weeks Later, The Blair Witch Project, Zack Snyder's Dawn of the Dead,

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

00:42These are all off the table so let's get to looking at six new ones.

00:46I'm Amy from WhatCulture and here are six more horror movies no one survives.

00:516. Inbred

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

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

01:01its 90 minute runtime is finished. Is Inbred particularly good? No. But what makes it stand

01:07out though is that it's brimming with gratuitous gruesome gore. Even now, over a decade since its

01:13release, Inbred remains a surprisingly jarring watch for those who choose to revisit it.

01:19Plot-wise, the movie centres on four troubled youths who are taken to a small Yorkshire village

01:24to carry out some community service, all done under the supervision of two caretakers.

01:28Of course, this is a horror movie and nothing can go as planned, so the group find themselves

01:33not exactly welcomed with open arms by the locals. As it turns out, the residents of said village like

01:39to brutalise any visitors in spectacular fashion. By that, it means that the outsiders are kidnapped

01:44and then used as part of a creepy stage show put on by the locals for the locals, with such shows

01:49ultimately resulting in the death of these star attractions. Whether it's by chainsaw, gun,

01:54being trampled by a horse, or any number of other horrible things, all six of Inbred's protagonists

02:00wind up dead.

02:015. House of a Thousand Corpses

02:04Rob Zombie's directorial debut, House of a Thousand Corpses, infamously introduced the world to the

02:09Firefly family. A clan of twisted, murderous sorts, the Firefly crew would go on to cause chaos and

02:15carnage for a further two movies. Not even stopped by their purported demise at the end of The Devil's

02:20Rejects, they appeared again of course in 2019's Three From Hell. As House of a Thousand Corpses

02:25opens up, the attention is on four friends travelling cross-country in order to pen a book on the most

02:30unique roadside attractions. Upon hearing from Captain Spaulding about the twisted legend of

02:35Dr. Satan, our buddies venture off to learn more about this sinister figure. Unfortunately for them,

02:41damage to their car means an initially warm stay at the nearby home of the Fireflies.

02:46But of course by the end of the film, this stay has not been warm and welcoming at all.

02:50In fact, they're all dead.

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

02:55Jennifer Josten's Mary is erratically, frantically stabbed by Baby.

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

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

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

03:144. Unfriended

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

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

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

03:28To set the stage, we have Laura Barnes, a high school student who took her own life after a

03:32video was circulated on Facebook of her drunkenly passed out and having soiled herself.

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

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

03:45Being a tech-driven horror film, these hauntings actually play out through Skype chats,

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

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

03:57Billy227 Skype user really is somehow the presence of Laura, it's too late for our core cast of teens,

04:04with every single one of them winding up dead via bleach, blender, gunshot, and a curling iron shoved

04:10down the throat.

04:11To top it all off, Laura then uploads a video of all of this happening onto Facebook,

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

04:193. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre – The Beginning

04:22The Texas Chainsaw Massacre – The Beginning has to be one of the great, so near but so far final

04:28kills, with Leatherface appearing in the backseat of an escaping car to slice up Jordana Brewster's

04:34Chrissy. As a movie, The Beginning is bang average at best, but with the slaughtering of Chrissy,

04:39Leatherface had finished his job and made sure that the picture had zero survivors.

04:43This 2006 prequel picture details how Thomas Hewitt became Leatherface, and the film opens with an

04:49early death as Thomas' mother dies whilst giving birth to the future Chainsaw enthusiast.

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

04:58pretty young things by the time the beginning wraps up, the last of these being the aforementioned

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

05:07including two cops who manage to get in his way. As of the time of the writing of this script,

05:11Leatherface has been seen to have killed a total of 55 people, and the beginning was the picture

05:16that gave us a glimpse at the Maniacs' first few formative years.

05:202. 2001 Maniacs

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

05:29Tim Sullivan's 2001 Maniacs is a great little popcorn horror flicks with some fine turns from

05:34genre faves Robert England, Lynchay and Peter Stormare. Set in the Georgia town of Pleasant Valley,

05:40this picture finds six college kids and a few bikers stumble upon said town, just as the annual

05:45Guts and Glory celebrations are taking place. Yes, the event title sounds a bit ominous, but then you

05:50can lighten up by knowing it's actually just a memorial for those who died in the American Civil War,

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

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

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

06:08the reveal of Pleasant Valley's truth is made out once two survivors manage to get out and make it

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

06:18and that the site is nowadays a graveyard. Rightfully freaked the hell out, our heroic pair pile onto a

06:23motorbike and drive off into the sunset, only to then be decapitated by a well-placed slice of barbed wire,

06:30and with that, every one of this 2005 movie's key characters are nicely killed off.

06:361. The Dyatlov Pass Incident

06:40From director Rennie Harlin, as in the helmer of the likes of Die Hard 2, Deep Blue Sea,

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

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

06:56here, Harlin uses these disappearances as a launching point for a film that goes utterly nuts,

07:01that throws time-travelling, mutants and time-travelling mutants into the equation.

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

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

07:17Desperate to unravel the truth behind this mystery, three of the group wind up dead during the early

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

07:26Trapped in a minuscule bunker, the pair of Jensen and Holly have screeching beasts outside their door

07:31as a strange wormhole appears in their tiny, temporary safe haven. Left with no choice,

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

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

07:48mutants who have been stalking their future selves in the present. Sort of meaning that the human

07:52versions of them are dead and died in the present when they travelled back to the past, which also kind

07:58of makes their death date the 50s. They're sort of now dead before the present moment ever really

08:03arrived, and now they're weird looking crusty ass mutants. Not one of the worst ways to go on this list,

08:09but definitely one of the weirdest. And with that, we've reached the end of this list of six more

08:13horror movies that no one survives. If you reckon you could have given us four more to make it up to

08:18a nice round ten, then please let us know in the comments down below with what you would have

08:22included. Remember, no repeats of the first list, don't be lazy. If you don't fancy that though,

08:26head over to whatculture.com to find more lists and articles like this every single day. As always,

08:31I've been Amy from WhatCulture, and I'll catch you next time.
