What are some of the best meanstreaks/killstreaks you've seen in Horror films?

In case you don't know, those things are when a VERY large portion of the cast is killed in the period of 5-10 minutes with very little time between kills.



Some favorites of mine:

The seven deaths in the last 20 minutes of Dawn Of The Dead '04, ESPECIALLY the last 7 minutes which had the deaths of FIVE characters.

Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter - All eight main 'teens', Mrs. Jarvis and Rob are all wiped out in the period of 28 minutes, with most of them dying in the period of 8 minutes.

Assault On Precinct 13 (2005) - Not a Horror meanstreak but still worth mentioning. Four characters killed in the period of under four minutes. Yikes!



So yeah, what are some of your favorites? (thumbsup)

^ Agreed. From the 65 min. mark to the 80 minute mark, there were like four pretty solid deaths, from what I remember. The gunshot triple slaying was brutal as hell, despite it not being super bloody.

The original Dead trilogy, even perhaps Land, have some great killstreaks near the end of their respective entries.

I'd agree with From Dusk till Dawn and Dream Warriors too.

Final Chapter is good also. Parts 2, 6, 7, and Jason Lives are as well.

Friday the 13th movies, and Hatchet movies, are primarily killstreak movies, to be frank.

Not sure if I mentioned this one but:


Final Destination 2: 5 deaths in the last thirteen minutes. Woah.
