10 Stupidest Things People Have Been Killed With In Action Movies
2. Porcelain Phallus - A Clockwork Orange
Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece A Clockwork Orange isn't really an action movie in the literal sense, but it certainly contains more than enough violence to warrant consideration, not least when you take into account the most unusual weapon of choice anti-hero Alex (Malcolm McDowell) uses during one of his home invasions. Sex and death are considered two of the primal forces in human psychology, with the Freudian concept of eros and thanatos encapsulating this dynamic. Alex combines these two elements in one of the most memorable scenes from A Clockwork Orange when he assaults and kills an innocent woman in her home using a distinctly phallus-shaped ornament, bludgeoning her to death as he dances around the room. It's no wonder that the film caused such a storm of controversy upon its release back in the early 1970s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_vrLGXUMGQ
