Movies that feature the "delayed body slice" effect
I'm not exactly what the term for this effect is, but I'm sure you've seen it. A person is cut with an ultra sharp object, looks normal for a few moments, and then falls apart into 2 or more pieces. 99% of the time the effect comes off as looking very cheesy.
Here are the movies I can remember off the top of my head (MILD SPOILERS): Equilibrium (face sliced off with sword) Final Destination 2 (barbed wire) Resident Evil (laser grid) Johnny Mnemonic (laser whip) No Escape ("Now that's funny!") Interview with the Vampire (I think I remember a scythe?) Cube (I think, it's been a while) Any others? |

Originally posted by Shonn Ghost Ship had a great opening scene that did this. I've always liked this effect, and it's been around for quite a while. It seems like after Ghost Ship it's being done more and more though. |

Second for thinking the Ghost Ship scene as disturbing but very well done.
I think the Resident Evil scene was also very effective. |
Blade II -
Spoiler:
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust - Meyer Link is sliced down the middle. He falls to the floor and one part slides a bit. Then he pulls himself back together! Happens a lot with vampires, I see. Garlic, Stakes, daylight, delayed body slice effects. |
I think Lone Wolf & Cub had one.

Princess Bride?

Shogun Assasin
