10 Movie Punishments Worse Than Death

10. Slowly Digested By Giant Worms - King Kong

Now, death is one thing. But agonising, drawn out, downright blood chilling final moments are completely another, and that's what poor Lumpy gets in the 2005 rendition of King Kong. When part of the crew falls into a chasm on an island full of impossible animals, it turns out that the place is infested with some pretty impossible insects, too, leading to a fight for their lives against giant spiders, skittering bugs, and undulating worms far bigger than any grub has right to be.

Cook Lumpy attempts to fight off these lumps of meat with teeth valiantly, but eventually ends up being suckered on each of his limbs by the man eating monsters for his efforts. Most upsettingly of all, one pulls itself down over his head, leaving only muffled screams to be heard as the camera pans away.

They aren't tearing him apart, they seem to be digesting him where he stands - meaning a long and impossibly terrible amount of pain before Lumpy is finally allowed to pass away, if that's indeed what happens at all.

Honestly, just knowing these creatures exist is enough to haunt the characters for a lifetime.
