6* Buddy's descent into just overall visceral revenge. He's basically a hybrid of the worst supervillain ever and a horror movie slasher who uses guns instead of knives or machetes, taking out whoever is in his way to get vengeance on Baby.
7* The RasputinianDeath of Doc is quite brutal. He was already shot several times by the dirty cops a few minutes earlier, so when Buddy mows him over with the police cruiser, you'd think that would be the end of it....only for Buddy to then ''[[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill back up the cruiser over Doc's head before continuing his pursuit for Baby]]''. Even though Doc was a BadBoss, you can't help but wince at that, especially so since [[HeroicSacrifice he did go out trying to protect Baby and Debora from Buddy and the aforementioned cops]].
8* Bats in general. A stone-cold, trigger happy psychopath and basically a serial killer. [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice His death]] can also be pretty unsettling; while he deserves it for being a huge JerkAss, him getting suddenly impaled through the chest and then the [[SoundtrackDissonance unfittingly calm]] piano music of Music/{{Blur}}'s "Intermission" slowly dying out while blood is oozing out of his mouth can be seen as rather disturbing.
9* Darling's description of Buddy killing people who piss her off is meant to be unnerving, and fulfills that purpose extremely well.
10* Buddy falling onto his car before it explodes is somewhat gruesome, but also a fitting end.
11* For those who value their hearing, Buddy deliberately firing two shots ''directly next to Baby's ears'' is horrifying.
