There has arguably been no bigger revelation in the Splatter and gory horror subgenres than Terrifier. Starting off as a cult classic and quickly making a name for itself as one of the most daring and controversial horror films to release in decades, the amount of unadulterated terror, blood, gore, and visceral imagery is nothing short of astounding. Using practical effects to bring gore to life in ways movies have never done before, the film is a masterclass on making a deeply disturbing and utterly unnerving story. Of course, as anyone who has heard of the film knows, there is one kill so shocking, so vile, and so gory, it truly needs to be seen to be believed.

Coming hot off of the massive success story that was Saw, Eli Roth's Hostel delivered a darker, bloodier, and far more gore-tastic version of a very similar story. The entire premise of the film is simple, showcase some of the most gnarly and disturbing kills known to the horror genre and make sure buckets of blood, guts, and gore come along for the ride. Undoubtedly one of the goriest horror movies ever made, Hostel is a film that relishes in the nasty elements and executes them to perfection. While the film never gets as mean as many of the other films in the Splatter genre, it still manages to give fans of gore and disturbing imagery their money worth with some of the most interesting and amazing practical effects and deaths on screen in history.

When The Hills Have Eyes was released back in 1977, it was widely considered one of the most disturbing, vile, and masochistic films ever released. Then, nearly three decades later, a remake was released that somehow managed to up the ante in blood, guts, gore, and terror. While many horror films use blood and gore, in general, to generate excitement and showcase gnarly practical effects, The Hills Have Eyes used these elements for one purpose alone, to psychologically damage audiences as much as possible. The film is widely regarded as a nasty, mean-spirited adaptation of an already brutal film, and the downright shocking and vile amounts of masochism are nearly too much to stomach.

When Saw came onto the scene in 2004, almost no one could have guessed that it would completely revolutionize the horror genre and introduce a craze of masochistic and gory films that would swarm the market. James Wan uses masterful directing techniques to create an intriguing, thrilling, and deeply disturbing film that crescendos into one of the most viscerally disturbing and gory scenes in movie history. While there are plenty of bloody and disgusting scenes in the film, as its title would suggest, the most painful and masochistic comes when the lead character is forced to saw off his own leg, an action the film relishes in forcing the audience to watch in painstakingly gory detail.

The second installment of the beloved Saw franchise saw the film up and anty one just about every conceivable metric. Showcasing a deeper story, more characters, and much more gore, Saw II stands as one of the better sequels of a classic horror film thanks to its ability to give the audience exactly what they wanted. The kills are much more inquisitive, the gore is much spicier, and the puzzles are far more fun than just sitting in an empty room for an hour and a half. While Saw II might not be as beloved as the films that preceded and succeeded it, the film still manages to be a fabricating splatter film with tons of gore.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is one of the most disturbing and goriest films of all time, which also just so happens to barely actually have any gore. The beauty of this 1974 horror masterpiece is the implications of terror, disturbing imagery, and horrendous events without getting too gruesome with the details. Oftentimes cutting away right before the most disturbing parts, the film excellently delivers a terrifying and disturbing experience, while simultaneously giving audiences as little as possible in the first half. Of course, this all reaches a boiling point when Leatherface finally gets his chainsaw and rams it right into the stomach of a main character, releasing an almost euphoric explosion of gore and terror.

One of the most intense and sadomasochistic films ever made, Hellraiser is known the world over for being a truly demented and horrifyingly bloody film, and somehow over 30 years later, it still manages to surprise the hype. While the original is arguably much tamer than its counterparts, Hellraiser is still a shockingly vile and bloody time that indulges in ripping apart its characters piece by piece and basking in their pain.

In the eyes of many hardcore Saw fans, the franchise peaked with Saw III, a smart, witty, entertaining, and utterly horrifying Splatter film that managed to beautifully mix a winding story with some of the gnarliest gore ever seen in film.

Sam Rami's The Evil Dead was so vile, so gory, and so masochistic, that it was rated NC-17 and even banned in multiple cities and counties.

The Halloween franchise was never one that the horror community would associate with gore. The first film had nearly none at all, and the subsequent sequels, while having their fair share, never relished in the gooey goodness. Rob Zombie's 2007 remake, however, is a completely different beast. Zombie prides himself as the man keeping Splatter alive, and he showcased his warped and twisted mind to perfection in the retelling of this classic tale. From vicious curb stomps to head-popping explosions to trademarked knife slashes and punctures, Halloween was a fully unhinged trip to gore town, and Michael Myers proved he was the ruler of all.

In the 70s, revenge horror films were slowly starting to become all the rage and no film popularized the sadistic subgenre more than The Last House on the Left. A brutal, barbaric, monstrous film that paints in great detail assault and revenge, the film is not a fun or entertaining watch, but rather a devastating and utterly horrifying experience that will be burned into the minds of any who dare watch it for the rest of time. None of the kills are ever played for fun or entertainment, instead showcasing the vileness of man and the lengths to which humans will go to take their revenge. The film has an immense amount of gore, but it is made all the most shocking and powerful thanks to a masochistic story.

Zombie films always manage to have an aura of grotesqueness and nastiness about them, but no zombie director brings the blood, guts, and gore quite like George A. Romero, and with his massive hit Dawn of the Dead, he helped revolutionize the genre. Showcasing sudden and shocking bursts of obscene violence, horrifying disfigurement and cannibalism, and a red paint that oozes and sparkles brighter than nearly any blood in real life, the film is chaos incarnate, and the further into the runtime audiences get, the more unhinged it becomes.

Shocking, vile, and fantastically gory, almost no horror director currently working knows how to make a sadistic skin-crawlingly bloody fun film quite like Eli Roth. Hyper focused on the Splatter elements of the film, Cabin Fever is a triumph in how to make a film as disgusting and disturbing as possible, while toeing the line of obscene. With countless scenes that showcase horrifying blood, guts, and body parts being hacked off, there is no doubt that Roth made a massive impact on the gory horror community with his directorial debut, and over the next two decades, he showed the world that he was just getting warmed up.

Cannibal Holocaust is a 1980 Italian cannibal film directed by Ruggero Deodato from a screenplay by Gianfranco Clerici, starring Carl Gabriel Yorke, Robert Kerman, Francesca Ciardi, and Luca Giorgio Barbareschi. Influenced by the works of Mondo director Gualtiero Jacopetti, the film was inspired by Italian media coverage of Red Brigade terrorism. The coverage included news reports Deodato believed to be staged, an idea which became an integral aspect of the film's story. Cannibal Holocaust was filmed primarily in the Amazon Rainforest with real indigenous tribes interacting with American and Italian actors. The film tells the story of a missing documentary film crew who had gone to the Amazon to film cannibal tribes. A rescue mission, led by the New York University anthropologist Harold Monroe, recovers the film crew's lost cans of film, which an American television station wishes to broadcast. Upon viewing the reels, Monroe is appalled by the team's actions, and after learning their fate, he objects to the station's intent to air the documentary.- Actors: Ruggero Deodato, Luca Barbareschi, Robert Kerman, Gregory Snegoff, Edward Mannix
