The Devils! No doubt in my mind. I can still see the close-up (spoiler alert) of Oliver Reed burning on the stake!

I've got lots of suggestions, feel free to pick and choose if you feel they aren't violent enough- Deliverance, The Exorcist, Death Wish, Rollerball, The Omen, Suspiria, The Deer Hunter, Dawn of the Dead, Midnight Express, Apocalypse Now, Alien, The Warriors, Zombie Flesh Eaters, The Brood

The Exorcist and Rollerball are not violent movies.

Hmm with The Exorcist even if you don't consider it violent in that there's a lot of people who get killed with lots of blood and gore, it has some truly shocking sequences of people turning into demons and people in pain which to me is a kind of violence. With Rollerball it's a sport focussed on people killing each other, that's pretty violent if you ask me even though the blood and gore is minimal. I'm not suggesting these are the most violent movies, they're just some that I've seen that I thought you might like to add.

Another movie I forgot to put in my list- Wes Craven's The Hills Have Eyes

There is not much gore in the Exorcist. And Rollerball, it can only be violent if people get hurt in a brutal way.

If memory serves me well Rollerball features some brutal deaths including someone burning alive and people getting hit in the head with those spike gloves. It was essentially The Hunger Games well before it was written.

This is probably the goriest film I've ever seen. I cringed and had my eyes closed during much of the film. It was shown in 3D and had gallons of blood on screen.

Holy Grail is more so violent it's funny and believe it or not it's only rated PG. It would be an interesting addition to the list though. If that's included I would also suggest Terry Gilliam's Jabberwocky.

Please remove the BS bomb from the text of the list. I'm pretty sure that IMDb would not appreciate this expletive on their family friendly poll pages (though the irony being the exact topic of this suggestion isn't lost on me).FYC:Night of the Lepus (1972)Mitchell (1975)Day of the Animals (1977)Planet of Dinosaurs (1977)The Bermuda Triangle (1978)Karate Killer (1976)

In addition to what Stephen wrote, which I agree with, I find the first sentence of the OP too argumentative. "You all say Clockwork Orange is the most"? Not me personally. There are many violent movies of the 1970s that I haven't seen, so I haven't expressed an opinion on which one is most violent.
