Every death in 'Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,' ranked from least horrifying to most disturbing

It wasn't super shocking that the giant alien who attacked New York City at the film's start perished less than 20 minutes into the movie, but it was one of the grossest moments of "Multiverse of Madness."

We definitely weren't expecting to see an eye ripped out of the socket of a demon. Compared to the other deaths, this one became the tamest of the bunch to stomach.

Since it wasn't a character we were attached to, this one makes the bottom of our list.

Sinister Strange was a bit of a creeper obsessed with getting with whatever version of Christine Palmer who would have him. He also was killing off other alternate versions of himself as he saw fit.

It was pretty clear this guy had to go so his death wasn't super shocking in order for the story to move forward, but it was still a bit grisly. In addition to tossing him out a window, he ended up impaled.

We barely knew Sara, the brave Master of the Mystic Arts who stepped up during the Scarlet Witch's attack on Kamar-Taj to save Wong, the Sorcerer Supreme. She gave her life to destroy the Darkhold.

Despite not knowing much about the character, it was pretty rattling to witness the woman disintegrate into dust before our very eyes. How do you resist getting drawn in by the little tear that ran down Sara's face as she sacrificed her life?

At the time, we thought that was one of Marvel's darker deaths for a character until meeting the Illuminati.

We may not have known many of these warriors who joined the fight to defend America Chavez and Kamar-Taj, but it was undeniably difficult to watch as Wanda ruthlessly murdered a group of benevolent peacekeepers in order to get her hands on a teenager.

After the events of "WandaVision," it was shocking to watch Wanda take a darker turn and walk through the destruction she caused without so much as batting an eye. This display of violence foreshadowed the more brutal deaths to come that audiences weren't expecting.

This is ranked higher because it showed the ruthless potential of Wanda's character toward a group of innocents.

No one was expecting to see the Spanish-speaking ponytail Strange variant get impaled minutes into "Multiverse of Madness."

That shocking death really set the tone for what was to come for the rest of the sequel.

Initially, we thought it wasn't believable for one of the most powerful superheroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to die by way of a statue falling on her. But fans pointed out something you may have missed that makes the moment more traumatic.

Wanda took Captain Marvel's power just before she was crushed, so she was effectively powerless.

Captain Marvel isn't higher on this list because her death was less gruesome than the ones that follow. By the time her death came around, audiences were almost expecting it as Wanda carried on with her murder spree on Earth-838.

After years of waiting to see John Krasinski as the leader of the Fantastic Four, Marvel Studios shockingly killed the character off in mere seconds.

When he failed to connect with the Scarlet Witch over their children, audiences witnessed the spaghettification of Mister Fantastic. Killing the character before we even got to witness his superpowers felt cruel.

Wanda viciously whips Captain Carter's shield back at her so hard that it splits her in two. We don't see the graphic moment, but you feel the death as we watch Peggy Carter drop to the ground.

We ranked this death as more traumatic because, unlike Krasinski's character, Atwell's Peggy Carter has been a part of the MCU for years and fans have been hoping to see a version of her superhero alter-ego on the big screen.

To see her taken away in mere minutes was a devastating blow to the fandom.

The Scarlet Witch nonchalantly turned Black Bolt's dangerous hypersonic voice against him by removing his mouth.

As a result, when Black Bolt went to use his superpower, which is powerful enough to destroy another being, it echoed inside his own head causing it to implode, killing him.

This isn't just one of the most unsettling deaths of "Multiverse of Madness," it's also one of the most unsettling deaths we've seen in a superhero movie, period.

In perhaps the film's most shocking moment, Wanda kills off the iconic X-Men leader minutes after Sir Patrick Stewart reprises the character for the first time since 2017's "Logan."

Upon a first watch, it looks like Wanda quickly snaps the neck of the elderly superhero. That would've been horrifying enough to witness on-screen, but it's not actually how the X-Men character is killed off in "Multiverse of Madness."

Upon closer examination of the scene, fans have pointed out online that Xavier's death is even more brutal. While traveling in Wanda's mind, the Scarlet Witch creeps up behind Xavier and actually rips his head in half in opposite directions instead of twisting his neck.

It's a deeply unsettling moment to rewatch, especially when you focus on Wanda's face and notice it gets scarily demonic.
