i told you tyler when i came here to any
goodness
i ever had in me had been wrong out
there by my old man
welcome to watch mojo and today we're
counting down our picks for the top 10
darkest moments in the suicide squad
this is your last chance turn back
around what's that
crazy one oh yeah and years ago the
rumors began of a beast
this dark room was helped the herrera
family maintain power
for this list we're looking at the most
grim scenes in this zany dc movie
we'll also consider moments of really
dark comedy
since we're diving into the movie's
events a violent spoiler warning is in
effect
what do you think was the darkest part
of the movie let us know in the comments
below
number 10 betting on who lives and who
doesn't
shortly after the first group of
villains are sent on their mission to
corto maltese
we see amanda waller's workers
exchanging money
it turns out they're betting on whether
each villain will live or bite the dust
brian durlin he's an expert in weapons
and hand-to-hand combat
well i'm putting 20 on him but he's
going to bite it me too and uh
weasel boomer and is mongol an
alien
the idea that they started a twisted
office deadpool
is pretty dark i put all my money on you
and now
i just realized i'm never gonna win the
uh deadpool although
most of the members of this edition of
the suicide squad are pretty bad
at the end of the day they're still
human beings if you don't count the
alien mongal
or whatever weasel is in any case the
idea that your tech support team at work
would bet on your life
is pretty grim fortunately amanda's
workers eventually grow a conscience
and learn to help villains task force x
the creature is headed to cayey
principal avoid avenida medrano there's
a swarm of infected
number nine waller threatens
bloodsport's family
although the imprisoned bloodsport has a
very strained relationship with his
daughter tyla
he still cares about what happens to her
amanda chooses to exploit this weakness
in order to complete her squad
we learn early on that tyla stole a
fancy kind of watch
you said you got in trouble i stole
you still won a style lodge
a stone arch a style watch
you can watch tv on it waller later says
that if bloodsport
doesn't join her squad she'll make sure
his daughter ends up in belle reeve
prison
i wouldn't take such extreme measure or
stream oh yeah a little extreme
if this mission went more important than
you could possibly imagine
since this jail has a few of the world's
worst criminals
and a high mortality rate there's a
seriously
dark implication behind this threat and
waller was not bluffing
she later confirms she was fully ready
to deal out a harsh punishment for a
minor crime
just to get what she wanted hey uh all
that stuff about his daughter
you wouldn't really do that right you
don't know half of what i would do
john number eight task force x
eliminates freedom fighters
as far as x you have an additional
mission directive we've
located colonel rick's flag he's been
taken by the enemy during the quarto
maltese mission
waller orders blood sports squad to
rescue rick flagg while
taking down anybody they see i've
uploaded the location on your mts
terminate his captors with extreme
prejudice
the villainous team is okay with this
because they're told that the people
they're attacking are huge threats
this leads to an extended bit of black
comedy where the squad finds
creative ways to dispatch their enemies
that we definitely cannot show here
after the team takes out every person in
sight
they discover that rick was never in
danger and
to make matters worse all the people the
squad took down were trying to
save corto maltese why did my people not
alert me of your arrival
knowing that they eliminated freedom
fighters made us feel really bad for
laughing during the squad's hilarious
and brutal spree of violence
guns wazing i know this is messed up
number seven rat catcher 2 and
bloodsport talk about their dads
why are you so afraid of rats
why are you so in love with him rat
catcher too
you know what i think i think you have a
serious case of daddy issues
the reason why clio's nicknamed
ratcatcher 2 is
extremely tragic she originally grew up
on the streets with her father
in order to survive cleo's dad the
original rat catcher
learned how to command rodents to steal
small items for them
the father and daughter's relatively
happy life together ended
when the original rat catcher passed
away due to issues with illegal
substances
when cleo tried to start over in america
she was jailed for relying on rodents
like her father used to
i took his machinery and came to america
it is a dream right
but i was arrested for armed bank
robbery do you believe it
ratcatcher 2's sad backstory also
encourages bloodsport to drop a
depressing tale about his dad
by the end of this scene we wanted to
give both the villains hugs because of
what they went through with their
fathers
it's imperfect my father was
he loved me
i wish i could give that to you number
six amanda sacrifices her b
team amanda waller came up with a
despicable plan to get bloodsport's
squad onto corto maltese
first she sent a team of nine people
that included villains like savant
and her loyal colonel rick flagg to the
island then
waller ordered the team to fight a large
number of cordo maltese soldiers
negative flag the mission is too
important this is a tough group
you can make it okay while the local
army was busy taking out squad members
left and right on one part of the island
she had bloodsport's team arrive safely
on an entirely different part of corto
maltese team two is clear to go on the
north beach
congratulations bloodsport this
incredibly bleak reveal makes the fact
that waller personally took savant's
life because he tried to retreat from
the soldiers even
worse if we had gotten to know this
doomed b team better
amanda's cruel sacrifice play would have
hit harder
how'd you do it wala there's no soldiers
out here on patrol at all
let's just say they were distracted
number five
harley quinn ends a bad relationship
before it starts
after harley quinn is captured she's
forced to meet the new president of
corto maltese
to her surprise she has insane chemistry
with the villainous figurehead
the president even offers to marry her
you want me to what
to marry me you're joshing but
as soon as he starts talking about his
sinister plans
harley quickly gives him a fatal wound
she explains that she took him out
because evil boyfriends she broke up
with in the past had a tendency to come
after her later
when you're tasting men is as bad as
mine
they don't just go away quietly although
harley
doesn't name anyone we think one of the
men she's talking about is the joker
her violent act against the president
showed how much trauma she's carrying
from her relationship with the clown
and others underneath harley's quirky
personality
she's still in pain all the cruelty
tears you apart after a while number
four why polka dot man
resents his mom throughout the movie
there's a running gag where polka dot
man
constantly imagines that all his enemies
are different versions of his mother
but we stopped laughing for a moment
when he told us why
it turns out that polka dot man's mother
gave him a rare virus
and experimented on his siblings so they
would develop superpowers
my mother was a scientist at star labs
and she was obsessed with turning me and
my brothers and sisters
into superheroes
she infected me unfortunately his
abilities could cost him his life if he
doesn't constantly get rid of the dots
that fill his body
and if all that wasn't dark enough polka
dot man lets us know that he was one of
the lucky ones among his siblings
what happened to your brothers and
sisters
[Music]
some lived some
died it's a shame that he suffered his
entire life just because his mom wanted
a superhero in the family
and your mom where is she now
everywhere
number three uncovering who supported
the starro experiments
what the hell is this i thought you were
looking for project starfish
your brothers visitors
[Music]
was a star-shaped alien who made
extensions of itself
by releasing smaller starfish from its
body that latch onto people's faces
while the extraterrestrial gains a new
body each human the starfish latches
onto
loses their life the villainous thinker
spent
decades conducting cruel experiments on
these extensions of starro
initially rick flagg believed corto
maltese officials were responsible for
this starfish project
but in a shocking scene he learns that
people in the u.s government supported
the thinker's twisted experiments
your government didn't send you here to
protect the world
from alien technology your government
sent you here
to cover up their part in it a large
number of staro's victims were innocent
people
and the creature itself later reveals
that it just wanted to be left alone
i was happy floating
staring at the stars the reveal that
officials from rick's government
supported such cruel experimentation
shook him and the audience to their
cores number two
amanda tries to terminate the surviving
squad members
this city is mine
when staro the conqueror breaks out of
prison it starts
possessing people and destroying corto
maltese
although the squad prepares to fight the
alien to save the locals
waller doesn't want them to help not our
problem
if you've destroyed the openheim and the
records within you've achieved the
objective
quarto maltese is no longer a u.s ally
but the villains cannot stand the
thought of letting innocent people
perish
when the remaining squad go back to
fight staro waller tries to remotely end
their lives open it miss over there
[Music]
what are you doing we already knew she
didn't care about the lives of task
force x members
but seeing her attempt to assassinate
people who were just trying to help
made her one of the most evil people on
screen luckily
waller's co-workers stop her from
committing what could have been the
movie's darkest act

number one the tragic demise of rick
flagg
one of the reasons waller sent two
squads to corto maltese
was so they could destroy any records
that proved americans supported the
starfish project
but flag wanted to expose the truth what
are you doing
who are you going to show that to press
goddamn people jerk no tired of covering
up their dirty little secrets when he
tries to take an evidence-filled hard
drive
peacemaker stops him from exposing the
u.s the two men get into a brutal fight
over the truth
but in the end peacemaker gives rick a
fatal blow
peacemaker
what a joke it was already painful to
see one of the most morally upstanding
characters meet a vicious end
but after it's revealed that the hard
drive was used as a bargaining chip
instead of a piece of damning evidence
rick's demise became the grimmest moment
in the suicide squad
look i know flag wanted to give the
drive to the press but we just saved the
whole bloody scene
we can't have it all
black was my friend mine too do you
