From Mel Gibson's Payback:
Bronson (Kris Kristofferson): "Tell me where John is and I'll finish you quick. I promise you won't have to find out what your left ball tastes like. But if there's even a bruise on him, I'll make this last three weeks. I'll give you a blood transfusion to keep you alive if I have to."
Damn. It's that blood transfusion part that really makes it good. There's lots of good movie threats out there, especially in old Clint Eastwood movies, and other actors as well. But some of them go over the top saying shit like "I'll rip off your skull and piss in your brain." Honestly..... it's all a bit unrealistic when you think about it. However..... being threatened with torture that lasts 3 weeks, with the torturer keeping you alive with blood transfusions..... now that's some scary shit.
What are some other personal favorite movie threats that stand out?
