  • Thinker is ripped apart by Starro after the creature breaks free. He begs for his life, but is slammed against a window with enough force to splatter him across it, with tons and tons of blood and gore splashing everywhere.
  • A woman goes on a prolonged killing spree through a palace's corridors. She uses a javelin to slice, impale, and stab many men, and the victim's blood start to turn into flowers in a highly fantastical sequence.
  • A giant starfish creature is shot at by soldiers and other people, the creature sprouts many smaller versions of itself and they float toward people and attach themselves to the people's faces; the giant starfish steps on people and vehicles crushing them.
  • Peacemaker and Colonel Rick Flag have an extremely brutal fight during the climax of the movie. They each get whacked in the face a few times with metal rods. Eventually Peacemaker impales Colonel Rick Flag in the heart with a piece of sharp tile. The camera cuts to a shot of his heart getting pierced and blood gushes out.
  • Starro The Conqueror (who is a giant Starfish monster) is shown killing lots of innocent people during the climax of the movie. There is lots of destruction and carnage as he destroys multiple buildings while crushing the people inside them.
