00:00The body counts are always high, but only a special few stay with us.

00:10Welcome to WatchMojo.com, and today we'll be counting down the Top 10 Unique Horror Movie Kills.

00:19Please be advised, this video contains mature content. We're not joking, this is going to get gnarly.

00:3110. Launched – Gremlins

00:38Kicking off our list is the electrifying amount of Christmas spirit that the gremlins bring old Mrs. Deagle.

00:43Supercharging her chairlift, the gremlins send the creepy cat lady on quite a ride.

00:50Unlike the torture porn of modern horror films, this one doesn't rely on a lot of blood or gore, and actually looks kind of fun.

00:56Except for the last part.

01:049. Garage Door – Scream

01:07This beer run goes bad when a young lady finds herself cornered in the garage with Ghostface.

01:12At first, she thinks it's all one big joke...

01:18...before getting a reality check.

01:20While she manages to put up a decent fight with the freezer door and a few beer bottles, it's her ill-conceived escape plan that's her final undoing.

01:26I guess they don't have a very big dog.

01:408. Liquid Nitrogen – Jason X

01:43Oh, poor baby. No wonder you wore this thing.

01:46In this space-age installment of the Dead Teenager series, the unkillable Jason Voorhees has been finally captured and placed in cryogenic suspension.

01:53In the year 2455, Jason is found and taken for a ride in a spaceship manned by the unluckiest crew ever.

02:01Oh, this sucks on so many levels!

02:09The most notable victim has to be his first, with whom Jason chooses to share his freezing experience.

02:18This is definitely the most bone-chilling kill ever, and oh yes, pun intended.

02:247. Lawnmower Suicide – The Happening

02:44This flick contains a laundry list of unlikely horrors after plants decide to fight back with a chemical that makes people off themselves.

02:50And you thought poison ivy was bad.

02:54As you can imagine, the results of this biochemical assault are pretty terrifying.

02:58While people casting themselves off buildings is downright horrific,

03:01it's this guy who chooses to have a lawnmower run him over that makes us fearful of yard work to this day.

03:116. The Tanning Bed – Final Destination 3

03:16Why does Siri keep it so cold in here?

03:18Maybe it's supposed to be colder for the machines or whatever.

03:20A few degrees won't hurt.

03:22While the series is already known to be all about the unexpected coincidence kills,

03:26in this case, it only solidifies an already deep mistrust of tanning beds.

03:30In the instance in question, Death has decided to make use of a broken mantelpiece,

03:34a slush drink, electrical box, air conditioning unit, a coat rack,

03:38potted plant, and a falling shelf, all to cook these poor girls alive.

03:455. Eye Trouble – Zombie 2

03:50Yeah, I'm just going to skip the beach this year.

03:575. Eye Trouble – Zombie 2

04:01When this woman is attacked by a flesh-eating zombie,

04:03she tries to block the door by herself before using furniture.

04:06Allowing herself to finally take a moment to relax,

04:09right beside the door, the zombie bursts through and grabs her hair.

04:12Pulling her through the opening, she gets a shard of wood in the eye.

04:25Dammit woman, use your hands! Do something!

04:334. Defibrillator – The Thing

04:42When an alien shapeshifter finds its way to an American research base,

04:45it systematically multiplies and kills everyone in the most horrific ways possible.

04:49When a team member seemingly has a heart attack,

04:51the doc jumps into action to try to save his comrade.

04:57Unfortunately for him, that's a ruse.

05:08Even if he'd survive getting his hands bitten off,

05:10there's no way he's going to survive this.

05:173. Bad Mattress – A Nightmare on Elm Street

05:23Freddy is definitely the baddest mother to ever support a fedora and stripes.

05:27A killer who exists in the dream world, he can only harm you while you're catching some Z's.

05:31One of the most harrowing and creative kills was in the original film,

05:35when he sucked Johnny Depp into his own mattress.

05:41Notice that we didn't actually have to see Johnny go for this scene to be pretty freakin' scary.

05:592. Head Explosion – Scanners

06:04What kind of a list would this be without a head exploding, right?

06:07A staple of the horror genre, it's best done here with a long build-up

06:10as a telepath, played by Michael Ironside, puts on his freakiest concentration face.

06:20Yeesh, I would never let that guy near my head.

06:22Just in case you're curious, this effect was achieved

06:24by blasting a prosthetic head filled with meat using a shotgun.

06:311. Chest Burst – Alien

06:38You probably knew this was coming, and here it is.

06:40This iconic horror movie kill takes the top spot for being a timeless classic

06:44that manages to blend in some pretty heavy allusions to rape.

06:50Nothing can come close to the sheer horror of birthing a xenomorph through your chest.

07:01This scene is totally organic, having been shot with actual guts from a butcher shop.

07:05And the actors look genuinely terrified because they weren't told what was going to come out beforehand.

07:15Agree with our list?

07:17Which horror movie kill do you find the most unique?
