20 Horror Movies Everyone Remembers For Just One Scene
14. The Collection - The Nightclub Massacre
The Collector, a brutal serial killer who uses traps to murder his victims, is one of those awesome villains who could've had a long-running franchise if he'd been given stronger material. Unfortunately, his two outings to date (a third remains stranded in development hell) were perfectly OK but failed to make that much headway with audiences. The only thing that's really remembered now from either of them is this opening scene from the second film, which is totally bonkers.
In this opening, The Collector booby-traps an entire nightclub and massacres the patrons; most notably, he sets a razor wire wheel across the dance floor which decapitates scores of partygoers with extremely gory results. Nearly everyone in there dies horribly, and it's the sort of gory spectacle that'll have you audibly wincing yet mesmerized and unable to look away.
By many clear miles, this is the most memorable thing from either of the two Collector movies, and if that planned third instalment does ever materialize, they'll have a hard time topping this.
