Top Seven Supermarket Slaughters
Army of Darkness (1992)
“That’s right…Shop Smart: Shop S-Mart. You got that?!” Who could forget that our favorite slayer of Deadites, Ashley J. “Ash” Williams, had quite the showdown with an evil baddie in his place of employment, the S-Mart, in the culmination of Army of Darkness? The S-Mart provides a great background for Ash to go wild one last time. Decked out in his snappy S-Mart uniform, Ash is seen describing how he could have been king to a co-worker (played by Ted Raimi) when suddenly a Deadite appears with bad intentions and Ash is forced to go all medieval on her ass. A great finish to a legendary horror series.
Universal Soldier (1992)
Okay, so maybe Universal Solider isn’t known as a horror film, but you can’t deny the brutality of this scene. Sgt. Andrew Scott (Dolph Lundgren) has gone off the deep end. He drags two dead bodies into the market cooler while wearing a necklace made out of ears. He’s also accompanied by a guy eating raw meat from the supermarket butcher’s counter. In between trying to make dead guys stand at attention and shooting police officers in the head, Sgt. Scott goes on an impressive paranoid rant about traitors and how we need to fear and destroy them. This supermarket scene really injects a horrific element into this memorable movie.
