James Franco stars as Aron Ralston, a climber who is forced to amputate his own arm after it is crushed under a rock. In honor of Ralston&#38;rsquo;s remarkable tale of survival, we here at Screen Junkies came up with a list of other memorable films that feature scenes of amputation. Some of them are disturbing, others are lighthearted, but all of them contain badly mutilated limbs, and that&#38;rsquo;s the important part. Enjoy!]]></description>

<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movienews/interview-danny-boyle">Danny Boyle&rsquo;s</a> new film<em>, 127 Hours</em>, premieres tomorrow. James Franco stars as Aron Ralston, a climber who is forced to <a target="_blank" href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movienews/why-127-hours-amputation-happy-ending">amputate his own arm</a> after it is crushed under a rock. In honor of Ralston&rsquo;s remarkable tale of survival, we here at Screen Junkies came up with a list of other memorable films that feature scenes of amputation. Some of them are disturbing, others are lighthearted, but all of them contain badly mutilated limbs, and that&rsquo;s the important part. Enjoy!</p>
<p><em><strong>The Star Wars Trilogy</strong></em><strong> &#8211; Various Characters</strong><br />
<object height="331" width="545"><param value="http://www.youtube.com/v/h6sj89xgnl4?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" name="movie" /><param value="true" name="allowFullScreen" /><param value="always" name="allowscriptaccess" /><embed height="331" width="545" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/h6sj89xgnl4?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0"></embed></object><br />
Before I started writing this article, I never realized how many arms go missing in the <em>Star Wars</em> trilogy. Sure, everyone remembers Luke losing his hand toward the end of <em>The Empire Strikes Back</em>, but the list goes on. In fact, Luke&rsquo;s not even the only one to lose a limb in <em>Empire</em>, provided you count the snow monster on Hoth. In <em>A New Hope</em>, Ponda Baba loses his arm to Obi Wan, and in <em>Jedi</em>, Vader loses his hand (again). This doesn&rsquo;t even count all the limbs that are lost in the prequels, but honestly, who gives a damn about the prequels? However, one thing is for certain: George Lucas has a severed-limb fetish. What a sicko.</p>
<p><em><strong>Evil Dead 2</strong></em><strong> &#8211; Ash</strong><br />
<object height="331" width="545"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/PzXk3nfEdMY?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed height="331" width="545" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/PzXk3nfEdMY?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object><br />
In <em>Evil Dead 2</em>, Ash&rsquo;s hand becomes possessed and attacks him in a <em>Stangelove</em>-esque fashion. But as the clip above clearly demonstrates, it&rsquo;s Ash who has the last laugh&hellip;sort of.</p>
<p><em><strong>Blade</strong></em><strong> &#8211; Crease</strong><br />
<img height="409" width="545" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2010b/43888-24082.gif" /><br />
If you somehow manage to disarm a vampire hunter, it&rsquo;s not a good idea to play around with his weapons. Just ask Crease from the original <em>Blade</em> movie. After disarming Blade, he ends up getting &ldquo;disarmed&rdquo; himself by a booby-trapped sword. Well, it was more of a hand than an arm, but still. That&rsquo;s no picnic. Although I think limbs grow back for vampires, so in the greater scheme of things, it&rsquo;s not that big of a deal.</p>
