10 Horror Movies That Killed EVERY Main Character
9. 2001 Maniacs
Released in 2005, Tim Sullivan's 2001 Maniacs is a loose remake of 1964's Two Thousand Maniacs! offering - itself inspired by a musical from the '40s.
Headed up by genre favourites Robert Englund, Lin Shaye, Peter Stormare and Giuseppe Andrews, 2001 Maniacs takes place in the 'idyllic' locale of Pleasant Valley, just as this Georgia town is celebrating the American Civil War with its annual Guts and Glory spectacular.
By chance, six college kids and a couple of bikers stumble upon Pleasant Valley while the town is prepping for this traditional celebration, and these guests are strategically separated and offed. When two of the students escape and inform the law of the chaos and carnage of Pleasant Valley, they're informed that this town no longer exists and is instead merely a cemetery for 2001 Confederate villagers killed during the Civil War.
This pair of would-be survivors start to ride off into the sunset, only to end up having their heads lopped off by barbed wire - meaning 2001 Maniacs is another of those pictures to kill off all of its main protagonists.
