10 Recent Horror Movie Moments That Shocked The World
4. Alli Rips Her Jaw Open - Hatching
Finnish body horror film Hatching follows Tinja (Siiri Solalinna), a young gymnast who finds a mysterious egg in the woods and decides to bring it home, caring for it until it hatches.
Once the egg hatches, it reveals a skeletal, birdlike creature which Tinja names Alli, and continues to nurture while hiding its presence from her parents.
Throughout the film Alli begins to take on a more humanoid form as it feeds - in fact, it's starting to look just like Tinja. In the film's climax, Alli ends up attacking Tinja's mother (Sophia Heikkilä) after she accidentally hurts her, causing Tinja to intervene and protect her mother.
However, Alli responds by backing up and screaming so loudly that her jawline rips wide open, the flesh of her face torn apart with an absolutely revolting level of detail.
Brutality inflicted upon children is always tough to watch, even when it's a weird fantastical creature who inadvertantly did it to themselves.
