In A Violent Nature is now in theaters, and one much-discussed - and shockingly gruesome - sequence from writer/director Chris Nash's critically-acclaimed horror flick has now been leaked online in all its gory glory.
Be warned: This really is one of the most twisted (no pun) things we've seen in a horror movie in quite some time.
The scene begins with undead killer Johnny stalking an unfortunate victim named Aurora (Charlotte Creaghan), who he finds doing some yoga close to the edge of a cliff. Upon seeing the brutish monster approach, Aurora attempts to flee, but finds herself caught between a steep drop and a rusty hook.
At this point, Johnny puts his entire arm through Aurora's stomach, and when she turns around to face him, he sticks the hook in her head and pulls the chain until her head is sticking through the hole!
It's gross, and, if we're being honest, a little bit silly, but the scene is sure to go down as one of the most creative kills of all time.

According to the official synopsis:
"When a locket is removed from a collapsed fire tower in the woods that entombs the rotting corpse of Johnny, a vengeful spirit spurred on by a horrific 60-year-old crime. His body is resurrected, and he becomes hellbent on retrieving it. The undead golem hones in on the group of vacationing teens responsible for the theft and proceeds to methodically slaughter them one by one in his mission to get it back – along with anyone in his way."
“One of the biggest challenges was trying to figure out how much information is necessary to tell the story,” Nash explained to EW in a recent interview“Fortunately, the slasher genre has a lot of recognizable tropes that I could rely on filling in the blanks that we couldn’t touch on without straying too far from our stylistic conceit. I owe an unfathomable debt to all the Friday the 13ths, The Burning, My Bloody Valentine — really the entire slasher genre; they laid the foundation for our film.”
The film stars Ry Barrett, Andrea Pavlovic, Cameron Love, Reece Presley, Liam Leone, Charlotte Creaghan, Lea Rose Sebastianis, Sam Roulston, Alexander Oliver, and Lauren Taylor.
IFC Films released In A Violent Nature exclusively in theaters on May 31. Do you plan on catching this one on the big screen? Be sure to let us know in the comments section.
