10 Scariest Movie Moments Of 2018

3. The Torture Rack - Apostle

Gareth Evans' Apostle proved to be one of 2018's most memorably unsettling Netflix Originals, evidenced no better than in the nerve-shredding sequence where poor young Jeremy (Bill Milner) is captured by his dead girlfriend's psychopathic father Quinn (a brilliant Mark Lewis Jones), framed for her murder and placed in a torture device for "purification."

The five-minute sequence that follows sees Quinn slowly driving a drill into the back of Jeremy's skull, hollowing out his head and, naturally, killing him.

Evans drags the killing out to nauseating lengths, which combined with Jones' hateful performance and some stomach-churning gore, ensures this'll make your blood run ice-cold.
