I would say that the death of Captain Rhodes in 1985's Day of the Dead is the goriest thing I have ever seen on film. Rhodes falls into a bunch of zombies and is literally ripped in half while still screaming. Zombies eat his body as he yells 'CHOKE ON 'EM!' Wicked gory, wicked badass and wicked sick.
Any other deaths worth noting?

One of the best horror deaths was the entire class in the 2000 movie 'Final Destination.' It features the most realistic and horrifying airplane crash I have ever seen.
People get blown apart, suck out of windows and fire peels a kids face back.
I had to ride a plane a few months after, I drugged myself to hell to make sure I wasn't able to think.
Definitely the best death scene.

My favorite is old school and really not all that gory.....Quint's death in Jaws. Just seeing the shark come up on the boat and watching Quint slipping down the sinking boat's deck into the shark's mouth puts me on the edge of my seat. The blood spewing from his mouth was pretty gory for the time. For me, the anticipation of what you knew was coming and then actually seeing it was the most memorable death I can think of in a horror movie. Others may be gorier or whatever, but so what? Getting eaten by a shark is more original than getting sliced and diced by another knife-wielding run-of-the-mill psycho serial killer slasher. The thought of having a giant great white shark clamp down on my abdomen with its jaws is a lot more disturbing to me than some guy with a knife.
It's when murder is justice that martyrs are made.
The stars are going out and the stripes are getting bent.
