10 Greatest Sacrifices In Horror Movie History
1. A Quiet Place
A Quiet Place was an undoubted hit in cinemas a few years back after being released to fairly little fan fare. The film is clever, original, tense and deeply terrifying at points and it became an instant modern classic for the horror genre.
The fantastic John Krasinski was involved in almost every department of the film, including its most emotionally charged moment. Krasinski plays the loving father to his remaining two children, after one of them was taken away from them, as he tries to survive and navigate his family through an infestation of blind extraterrestrial's that hunt by sound.
In the films final act the two children are cornered in a beat-up car, about to get preyed upon by one of the vicious creatures until dad steps in. In a moment to make any watching father proud, Krasinki's Lee Abbott lets out a roar of defiance to pull the creature away from his helpless children.
The beast immediately turns on our brilliantly sympathetic protagonist and proceeds to tear him to shreds, leaving his grieving children enough time to escape - and earning himself a father of the year nod along the way no doubt.
