Jonas chose an iconic moment from Sam Raimi’s darkly comedic 1987 horror classic Evil Dead 2.
Battling off an onslaught of Deadites, Ash (Bruce Campbell) finds himself locked in conflict with his own hand. Spotting a nearby chainsaw, Ash is forced to take drastic and incredibly violent measures in order to survive.
Jonas elaborated on why he chose that particular gory movie moment:
The way that wide-angle lens travels in on his grinning, blood-spattered face; there’s something extremely satisfying about it. It never fails to make me grin right back.
