10 Bloodiest Mainstream Movies Ever

Bloody hell!

Blood. Its bloody everywhere sometimes. You wait a whole film for it and then, randomly, some lift doors open and shower the whole shot with the red stuff. Quite often it€™s there to shock us into submission. Sometimes it is a symbolic gesture. Either way, when the blood starts flowing, you know what sort of film you€™re getting. Or do you? The title of this article is the bloodiest €˜mainstream€™ films. Are some of the films on this list as bloody as some nasty little direct to DVD independent slasher? Maybe not, but that€™s not what we€™re looking at here. Some of the films on this list come from some of the biggest directors in Hollywood. Also, the blood might not flow through the whole film but, when it flows, it flows like a river. Again, there isn€™t much horror on this list simply because many of them are small, independent productions and there are many lists out there which already cater to those. These are the ones we could catch on the big screen and are quite often surprising in their violence (westerns, €˜romances€™, war films). Does this mean horror isn€™t mainstream? Of course not, but it look at most recent horror €˜hits€™. The Conjuring. Insidious. The Others. Not much blood there really. However, although this list isn€™t about horror as such, a quick shout-out must go to The Friday the 13th franchise which came from Paramount, one of the biggest of Hollywood studios. Are you going to disagree? Probably, and defining what €˜mainstream€™ is can often be a hard thing in itself (as you€™ll see from our number one entry), what can€™t be denied though is that each film on this list is either full of blood or has a scene or scenes which define the whole movie. Bloody hell, let€™s just get on with the 10 Bloodiest Mainstream Movies In History...
