^ What? That sounds awesome!
Tough one. For something a little different I'll offer wedding toast scenes. A good recent one was in Rachel Getting Married. It was excruciating to sit though.
In the physical category, how about several scenes in Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance? There is the ankle tendon slice then subsequent drowing. The electrocution scene, which is one of the more effective I've seen filmed. And of course, the classic knife to the neck sequence. "Don't pull it out." You know he will.
