This 2011 indie slasher killed the most victims.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT One low-budget 2011 indie project isn't particularly well-known compared to other horror movies, but it holds the record for the highest body count in a slasher film. Although not every horror movie is a non-stop gore fest, many of the genre’s offerings do pride themselves on their sizable body counts. In particular, the slasher sub-genre is famous for killing countless characters in endlessly inventive fashions.
Of course, a body count isn't the only reason to check out a horror movie, even if some seem to exist solely for the purpose of murdering more characters than their competitors. One largely forgotten indie horror set the record for the highest number of victims in a slasher movie, but this didn’t necessarily make the film good.
The Summer of Massacre Holds The Record For The Highest Body Count In A Slasher Movie Director Joe Castro’s The Summer of Massacre holds the Guinness World Record for the highest body count for a slasher movie. In total, the 2011 film kills 155 characters in its 98-minute runtime. Among the movie’s more memorable deaths are a meat thermometer stabbing, death by face-eating, and a gruesome pair of frying pan beatings.
The Summer of Massacre’s anthology story features a lot of taboo subjects, but the movie struggles to make an impact despite this. Perhaps because its action is split into brief vignettes, The Summer of Massacre doesn't offer much reason to become invested in the fate of its characters. While Troma’s recently remade The Toxic Avenger is able to merge black comedy, shock value, and gory violence, The Summer of Massacre can't recreate the same tonal balancing act.
How The Summer Of Massacre's Number Of Kills Is Actually Much Higher To its credit, The Summer of Massacre truly delivers on all the death and destruction, even if its story is just subpar. And The Summer of Massacre’s body count is technically higher than its Guinness World Record suggests, as the movie’s climax involves a nuclear bomb that wipes out millions of citizens in Los Angeles, California.
