"exploding head movie" is a useful google search.

The upside is that there are exploding heads in "A History of Violence," and since the studio has asked that the movie's secrets not be revealed, I'm not going to say if Hurt's is one of them.

I can reveal, though, that "Violence" is easily David Cronenberg's best exploding-head movie since "Scanners" which as anyone knows, is the best exploding head movie of all time.

In Raiders, I think the creepy torture guy with the glasses melted, and Belloq exploded.

It didn't seem weird that I knew that until I wrote it out.

That's what I remember, too. One head melts, another pops.

Yeah, after all the Nazis get electrocuted or scared into melting by the spectral figures, Belloq takes a slow-moving fireball from the Ark itself right in the kisser.

Aha.

when the movie was originally submitted for an MPAA rating, it was given a rating of "R" because of the sight of an exploding head. In order to lower the rating, flames were superimposed over this image. The result was the appearance of a head exploding behind a dense curtain of flames.

I don't know if I've ever really registered that. Huh. I think it's all about the melty head for me.

Top five God-vs-Devil films

Wouldn't The Prophecy count in that category?

Scary Walken, Scarier Viggo.

Actually, God's not in the conflict we see onscreen, so it's Angel vs. Devil.

"He doesn't talk to me anymore."

One of the saddest lines in the movie.

Scary Walken, Scarier Viggo.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - that's quite an accomplishment for Viggo, especially given the screen time each has.
