No One Here Gets Out Alive: 7 Movies With 100% Body Count

Movies tend to be built the way we sympathize with its protagonists and wish them to survive the dangers which are waiting for them. However, there are some merciless exceptions, killing all the survivors. Here are 7 of the brightest examples of it.

1. The Cabin In The Woods (2012)

The first movie, coming to mind as the most relentless one to their characters, is the slasher, which deconstructs the trope of a surviving “final girl”. It features two of the remaining people, Dana and Marty, dying along with the rest of the world.

2. The Grey (2011)

To our disappointment, even Liam Neeson’s character dies in the Alaskan wilderness with Canadian grey wolves, menacing the survivors of a plane crash. By walking right into the lair and getting killed by the predators, he breaks viewers’ hearts.

3. This Is the End (2013)

This movie features the “most wholesome ending where everybody dies”, according to Redditor’s @boot2skull commentary in a recent discussion. Indeed, this apocalyptic comedy horror offers quite an unexpected, but extremely hilarious finale.

4. Dawn of the Dead (2004)

This zombie movie plays an evil trick with its audience, as it initially gives a chance for its four characters to escape, but then suddenly places them in an island full of zombies, which they presumably didn’t survive, just like the rest of humanity.

5. Seeking a Friend for the End of the World (2012)

Steve Carell and Keira Knightley’s romantic dramedy promised the ending where the two survive winning over the apocalypse “with the power of love”, but, surprisingly, it didn’t happen, leaving viewers’ jaws on the floor and eyes wet with tears.

6. Sunshine (2007)

The rules of space sci-fi movies always imply that at least one of the astronauts should stay alive at the end, while others die on their way to fulfill the mission. However, this movie features the whole crew dying while reviving the fading Sun.

7. Final Destination 5 (2011)

Nailing the concept of the inevitability of death, the Final Destination franchise is notorious for killing most part of its characters. The fifth chapter of these slasher horrors goes further, killing the rest of its survivors in the plane explosion.
