Wrong Turn 2 (2007)

The Moment: Old Timer (Wayne Robson) is blown to smithereens by Dale (Henry Rollins), who uses a stick of dynamite to gut-spewing effect.

Look Away When: The dynamite goes boom.

Dead Snow (2009)

The Moment: A group of Nazi zombies rip one of the campers apart limb from limb.

Look Away When: The zombies first stab their victim, then raise him from the ground in preparation for the limb-tearing.

Final Destination 2 (2003)

The Moment: Tim Carpenter (James Kirk) survives a date with the dentist only to be crushed by a plate of glass that falls from above.

What are the chances?

Look Away When: Tim rushes over to scare some pigeons.

Karma’s about to intervene.

Alien 3 (1992)

The Moment: A dog that has been impregnated with an alien embryo finally gives birth in typically grim fashion.

Look Away When: The dog starts to convulse and shake.

Ah, the miracle of motherhood…

Creepshow (1982)

The Moment: In the segment entitled ‘They’re Creeping Up On You!’, a germophobic guy is infested with creepy crawlies that burst through his skin.

Look Away When: A little blossom of red appears on the guy’s cranium.

It’s only going to get worse…

The Omen (1976)

The Moment: Photographer Keith Jennings (David Warner) goes to retrieve a set of daggers that he’s decided to use to kill devil child Damien, but then a truck rolls towards him and a sheet of glass it’s carrying takes his head clean off…

Look Away When: Jennings looks up just in time to see the glass slicing his way.

Night Of The Living Dead (1968)

The Moment: Helen Cooper’s (Marilyn Eastman) daughter comes back to life and kills her with a garden hoe before eating her.

Look Away When: Helen discovers Karen in the basement eating Harry.

Not exactly the friendliest family reunion…

Species (1995)

The Moment: Predatory alien Sil (Natasha Henstridge) takes out the competition in a nightclub, ripping out the spine of another attractive female while she takes a pee.

Look Away When: Sil notes the cubicle that her unsuspecting victim is using, then strolls purposefully from the room…

House Of 1,000 Corpses (2003)

The Moment: Denise Willis (Erin Daniels) discovers Dr. Satan’s (Walter Phelan) operating theatre, where he’s currently performing decidedly gooey brain surgery.

Hope he administered an anaesthetic.

Look Away When: Denise first glimpses Jerry on the operating table.

Small wonder she starts screaming “No! No! No!”

Audition (1999)

The Moment: “I’ve paralyzed your body, but your nerves are still awake,” says Asami (Eihi Shiina) before getting out a wire saw and moving down to her victim’s feet…

Look Away When: Asami covers the carpet with a white sheet.

Wonder what that’s for?
