10 Horrifying Movie Deaths That Happen Off Screen

1. Lust - Se7en

Georgie It

Since the Seven is a whole movie jam packed with crimes you never actually see committed in real time, enacted by a serial killer intent on recreating the seven deadly sins in physical form, it really could be anything topping this list. From gluttony's death via spaghetti to vanity's noseless nightmare, there's a bunch of gruesome options - but it's lust that definitively stands out as the most disgusting, petrifying murder that's ever been enacted out of the walls of framing.

When a man decides to get a down and dirty with a prostitute, this is not the kind of freaky he was expecting. Forced by John Doe to wear a bladed strap-on and continue with his intended activities, we hear about how the act went down through a police interrogation that shows just how traumatised the man has become in the aftermath of being complicit in a murder - and whilst he definitely didn't get the worst end of this deal, his broken mind and jittery speech is just an inkling of how intensely awful this situation was.

That we see every other sinful body apart from this poor woman is pretty telling in a movie as graphic as this.
