4. STD - Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels
That's sexually transmitted death, in case you were wondering. Long before Guy Ritchie was making surprisingly good Sherlock Holmes films, he was cutting his teeth in the grubby underworld of London, creating colourful characters and punctuating convoluted narratives with shocking moments of violence. His films are built on a culture of reputation - even before we meet a lot of the characters, or as we are meeting them, we are invited to believe in and invest totally in their mythology, and that is most evident in the character of Hatchet Harry (PH Moriarty) whose reputation hangs over his scenes like a thick fog. That reputation is built on his tendency towards bloody, extreme violence against anyone who has wronged him, as we learn when it is revealed that Harry once killed someone with a giant rubber dildo, some years before Saints Row 3 made it even more famous. http://youtu.be/naGOZoHxA-I
