2	----
3	!!The film:
4	* The final blow to Marlow, when it looks like he and self-infected Eben are evenly matched, Eben punches a hole straight through Marlow's head in a brilliant shower of blood, which makes the other vampires back off and run away.
5	* When Eben injects himself with Billy's (vampire-infected) blood so he can become a vampire and fight Marlow in order to allow Stella and the girl to safely escape.
6	* Beau absolutely curb-stomping the vampires (both running them down and shooting them) until he runs out of ammo and tries to blow himself up along with them... [[NegatedMomentOfAwesome which he fails to do.]] This leads to Marlow crushing his head underfoot.

8	!!The comics:
9	* The introduction of Vicente is particularly noteworthy. After much of Barrow had been decimated, Marlow attempts to impress him with the massacre ... to which Vicente furiously responds by slapping Marlow in the face and giving a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to the vampires who partook in the slaughter and kills the haughty Marlow after he attacks him, grabbing him out of the air as he leaps for him and tearing his head from his neck one-handed. Though it becomes not so awesome for the people of Barrow when he reveals his plan to MakeItLookLikeAnAccident.
10	* Eben's showdown with Vicente. He's getting his ass whooped while the crowd of undead laugh at him, until he starts killing them all with ease and punches a hole through the Elder's mouth. After which the remaining vampires stare at him in terror as he drives them out with five words.
11	--->'''Eben:''' Get ... out ... of ... my ... town.
12	* John Ikos is practically ''made'' of awesome. Unlike Eben, who had to become a vampire to take down Vicente, he remains a normal human that hunts vampires for sport and, in ''Return to Barrow'', rallies almost the entire town so that everyone is ready to shoot or burn scores of charging vampires [[MenOfSherwood and have a decent chance of surviving the experience]]. He even takes down the vampire leading the second attack on Barrow by throwing a knife through his head. Later, in the climax of the ''Beyond Barrow'' sequel series, he seemingly makes a HoldTheLine HeroicSacrifice, only for Marcus to correctly predict that John will come out of it unscathed and even beat the others back to town (where they find him calmly cleaning his gun).
