If I had to describe an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie (save for a handful of family flicks) I'd say they were a deluge of destruction and musclebound mayhem. Whether he's playing Hercules, Conan, or the T-800 Terminator, Arnie has made counting kills a true cinephile's pastime, and for all of you Arnold fans, Auralnauts has just uploaded a video that counts every single one of his movie kills! It's a celebration of all the things that makes him so fun to watch -- the utter carnage that follows him wherever he goes. (For all of you non-fans -- seriously, what is wrong with you!?)
I won't ruin the video for you by giving away too many details, but let's just say that Arnold has killed many, many, many dumb henchmen and evil masterminds -- even animals. (Don't worry, they were deadly.)
The video counts every kill from his first film Hercules in New York (1969) to The Last Stand (2013), which means that his latest film Escape Plan (which hasn't been released on DVD/Blu-ray/VOD yet) isn't even factored into the massive number. Though the Auralnauts team wasn't going to factor in any kills made in his TV appearances, they do include a few.
For the creators of the video, the utter determination it must've taken to painstakingly count and tally each one must've required some Herculean strength. So sit back, relax, and enjoy 28 minutes of film history violent awesomeness from The Arnold. (An annotation in the bottom left corner of the video gives a link to the commentary version.)
