For instance, the pool cue beating-murder in the movie, "Deep Cover" exceeded in brutality any killing I can recall in a horror movie. If "brutal killing" is to be taken literally, then I'd assume the Award would go to, say, any of the several dozen scenes where people are fed slowly into Cuisinart-like devices. But if instead it's supposed to reflect a successful brutalizing of the *audience*, then, of course, those scenes are always far more silly than "brutal". So, I'd nominate perhaps the murder scene in STRANGE DAYS, where (iirc) relatively little happens on-screen. Or, if the victim need not gratify us by actually expiring, there's always the aptly named MISERY.
