It is EXTREMELY rare to see a horror movie protagonist beat the ever-living FUCK out of the villain like this and WIN, no less. Arkin was past caring if he lived or died at that point. Full on adrenaline and rage, man handled business and still survived thanks to the girl here. Absolutely one of my favorite final fights in any movie

Arkin is one of the most badass characters in any horror movie ever.

Arkin O'brien - best horror movie protagonist in a long, long while. I was quite satisfied to see him come out of his ordeal alive.

I love that he was past the point of pain. A knife to the check didn’t mean anything to him. Adrenaline fight or flight he was in full fight mode

Possibly the most underrated horror movie of all time

The fact that he said "don't die yet" just shows how long he's been waiting to beat his ass

To this day, I can't think of a more badass and well written line than "Don't Die Yet"

Arkin was so bad ass!! He went through so much shook it off and kept moving.

The part where he dropped to his knees and was ready to give up tears me up a little.. he was ready to give up believing his fate was gonna end up him burning to death there and then to see how the girl helped him, the look on his face at 3:38 when he saw that she wasn’t giving up on him as he was watching her break the glass put “hope” back on his face 😍

I'm not going to lie, this is one of the most satisfying endings to a horror movie I think I've ever seen. Combined with the scene where Arkin shows up at the house, you rarely ever see the killer/villian "get it" the way The Collector got his comeuppance. Refreshing haha

this movie rocked so fucking hard

I like how Elena watches in complete Awe as Arkin totally starts whooping on the Collector's ass in this scene! Those ground and pound crosses to his face were extremely brutal and that knife through the cheek as Arkin just takes it and counters with a headbutt, extremely badass!!

There are movies that have the ability to jerk a tear or more, not from sadness or hilarity, but from raw overwhelming epicness. This is one such movie.

Most badass scene in movie history. Arkin takes a knife to the cheek and barely notices. What a badass...

I can't believe this movie got such a bad review And did poorly in theaters....I loved it and I loved Arken I'm in love with him now..lol

This was such a wonderfully-written climax to the movie. After all the events of the last movie, Arkin finally and satisfyingly lays a beatdown on the Collector. You can feel the indignation in each strike. And then, once he’s beaten him, resigns himself to being burned alive. But then, in a brilliant inversion of the turning point of the first film, where Arkin heroically turns back to save the little girl, a grown woman courageously rescues him. It gives me chills to think about it. There’s something archetypal here. Something true to life. If you make the heroic decision, things don’t always work out for you, but sometimes, if you do what is meaningful and courageous, Being rewards you by revealing itself as good to you. That’s what I get from this scene. Wonderfully done.

This scene and endfight definitely stuck out of the movie the most because of the great use of soundtrack, Arkins badassery and overall setup. I even thought Arkin would just stay there and die after getting rid of the Collector but the girl saves him that was kinda touching, not bad for a horror flick like this, that scene showed character :)

Song is "Out of the fire" by Charlie Clouser, love this ending

that girl is super lucky that those tanks contained water and not an actual embalming fluid like (the highly flammable) formaldehyde.

1:57 when the Collector looks genuinely afraid of Arkin and Arkin's face just says "oh well" is soooooooooo good.

There needs to be more horror franchises like this, where the protagonist is more than just the person who runs from the killer and escapes in the end just because they just so happened to be the last one to be chased. Where the actual killer himself isnt just a really strong and durable guy and instead is extremely smart and skilled and that why he is dangerous. Where most kills or scares actually have meaning instead of just being there. The 2 collector movies are extremely underrated and are easily the 2 best slasher horror movies of all time.

not only did he tank that knife to the face, but arkin was hammering this dude with his BROKEN arm

I can't believe they're making a sequel to this. This had such a perfect pay off and ending that was unexpected. I feel a third film will just completely undo this.

We’ve had so many villains who refuse to die. Makes sense to finally have a hero who does.

Randall Archer should have received an Oscar Award for his acting as one of the best horror movie villains ever.

I'm pissed this movie got bad ratings. I don't get what made it so bad. This scene right here had, in my opinion, award winning potential. After the first movie Arkin get revenge on him, took a knife to the face but had the adrenaline of revenge. Then after he got trapped by the fire I would have betted all the cash I have that he was going to die. If the collector dies then so does Arkin. But the girl saved him, which in most movies you don't see so this made an interesting new twist you don't see much movies have. To be honest I did like the first one better but mainly cause Arkin was in stealth action and I like stealth but this movie deserved better props in my opinion.

best horror movie ever we wait for the COLLECTION 3 !!!!!!

My favorite thing about the collector is that he is human, not some superhuman killing machine who can't die.

boy arkin was not playing with the collector

One of the most epic fight/music I've ever seen. This was fucking epic, it saved the movie.

Amazing. Absolutely amazing. Hands down one of my favorite movies.

When Elena is looking at Arkin and Arkin looks down in defeat it is one of those rare highly emotional scenes you see in a horror film. The movie did so poorly in theaters but is loved by many just goes to show you that mainstreamknows nothing about actual horror. I don't trust anything critics or regular moviegoers say as they usually aren't into anything extreme.

Arkin is our final boy.

When that music came on, when I saw this for the first time in theaters, I was fist pumping into the air. It was GREAT!

"Dont die yet, your mine" Most cold line in the whole film

The real ending is still more satisfying than this. Knowing arkin gets to torture the collector for what he did just seems so right.

Best climax ever. You can feel all type of emotion in this scene. Gosh. Untouchable

Man was the definition of a bad ass survivor. Took everything the Collector through at him and more and still managed to beat him to a pulp and come out alive. Definitely a rare thing in movies like this.

Arkin was just nails in both these films. The collector definitely met his match with him!!

Arkin is such a great character and the fact he gets to actually live and beat the shit out of the collector is super satisfying….him, doug from the hills have eyes and sherriff wydell from devils rejects

FUCK YEA BADASS SCENE!!!ITS JUST SO AMAZING!!!!

The collector deserves more praise than ghost face

Arkin is showing you what you should do in a horror situation

Never had so many different emotions during one horros scene. From tears to mad laugh.

When the music begins it gives me goosebumps Arkin is a real badass and this is the moment he have had enough of the collectors BS and it's on for real this time.

This the Greatest Horror movie ending I’ve ever seen in my life

This movie is so badass.

When the boss music plays and it isn't the villains, but the protagonist's.

First time I saw this I theaters, I was headbanging to the music. Fucking awesome.

Beste Szene und dieser Track dazu, einfach nur genial, ich liebe es 🥰

Even though it’s underrated but that firemen that heard Elena knocking on the meteal doors is a chad

One of THE most powerful scenes in movie history, in my opinion. A great vision of good (as far as humans can be good) vs. evil in the context of humanity. And JUSTICE after all the twisted, fucked-up shit the Collector has put people through. edit: I came back 8 years later to this comment. I certainly went overboard writing "one of THE most powerful scenes in movie history" :P, but I do still think it's powerful.

best movie in the world. I hope theirs a third one!!!

The sequel was so much better then the original . The first was pretty much a cat and mouse chase throughout the whole movie , this movie was brilliant and the soundtrack rocked too.

I remember seeing this scene and being in awe of how badass it was.

We all need to work together to bring back the third collector movie

I was so close to losing it when I thought Arkin wasn't going to make it.

God dang this movie was badass in theaters and now this tuesday it comes home giggity giggity goo

You know what would have sucked though...if that liquid was flammable

The Collector films: God has a plan for everyone. Arkin may have just started out as a bit of a loser (a burglar and a blue collar), but at the end of the day he was part of the Plan. It was his destiny to bring down the Collector... and to have this epic face off.

1:50 that scene will forever send me chills

And the song is Out of the Fire by Charlie Clouser. The same guy who did hello zepp, the theme for saw!

The point is he could be anyone. Though in the first movie it had been suggested he was an exterminator who had been working on a house while he was casing the place. (Arkin Was able to get his mask off and see his face, though we never do.)

The killer is still unknown to us. However, we kind of know what he is in the ending when Arkin traps him in the box. When he goes upstairs, he turned the radio on and it is believed that he was related to what the radio news said, a child who was the only member of his family that survived his grandfather/father's massacre. The when Arkin holds him at gunpoint, he says hid daddy "fucked him up good." So he must have turned him into an artist, a bug liker, and a psycho killer.

So this is what Pilgrim was doing before he retired. No wonder he could take on the Punisher!

Josh Stewart is such a badass

God his expression as in this is it for me. And the oh what are you doing? Love that actor

What an amazing scene, she wouldn't let him give up and the music is so good.

this and the collector my top 10 best horror flims Josh Stewart is an underrated actor. Deserves more. Glad to see him in The punisher 2nd season and The Shooter series. "Look at me" his adrielian and madness took over to defeat evil.

One of the best horror movies i ever seen.... he was crazy as hell

wonderful sound track!

Quality and lighting isn't as good in this one as it was in the first one, which threw me off. Also, the collector made some really derpy expressions, lol But seriously though, it was pretty badass when it came to raw action and brutality.

I love this part too an the music in the background.

this scene and music rly gives goosebumbs

I'm here from the punisher 2 josh was so bad ass

My favourite part of the movie is when Arkin hunt the collector into his house and lock him up in his red box. Not simply killing him and let him feel what Arkin feel is perfect. 😍

If those were cubes were filled with formaldehyde they would have died so easily

I love when sequels always bring back the original characters especially the protagonist. In this one the collector was a different character.

I love Josh Stewart he is such a good actor

Haber encerrado a arkin en la primera pelicula fue el peor error del coleccionista. Jamás pensó que tiempo después, este seria el gran personaje que le daría su merecido. Bravos por Arkin y el coleccionista. Dos personajes con los que me encariñe mucho. Gracias patrick melton y Marcus dunstan por esta joya. De haber sido la primera pelicula el guion de saw 4, no hubiesemos podido disfrutar de estas dos entregas.

I loved how she was like fuc it im going to get him because he helped me so we help eachother 💯

One of the rare scenes in dark movies in which the hero fights back a monster killer and even finish him that makes this movie so satisfying and happy wow

I don't care what rotten tomatoes says this is underrated as f*** this scene alone is just you could just f****** analyze this down to a key and granted you could make nitpicks but at the same time it is just f****** a powerhouse of a scene arcan is the definition of a final boy which is probably the first time I couldn't even think of a final boy on film usually it's fine or girl but all this man did was Rob a house and he got put through hell and he's just not taking it he's f****** giving his all even with the fact of a knife to the cheek he doesn't give a s*** he'll f****** keep punching because he's sick of being pushed around by the sadistic f*** that is the collectorthis film is just amazing and I hope with the third installment it doesn't do anything to f****** this franchise cuz the way I see it this is a closed cut ending for a perfect good story I don't know how you would even improve upon it

One of my favorites all time

And we'll never get a third one. Screw the producers.

This movieeeeeeee is great!!!i love the ending & thank god elena is strong & smart too well both arkin and elena are strong & smart characters hehe 😬😂👌🏻

I love the music that starts playing once the good guys gain the upper hand.

THIS IS SO AMAZING! ARKIN😱😵😭

Makes me so proud to know "The Collector" is a Dominican Actor. Great work!

Loved watching him being the bad guy in Shooter and the Punisher

0:40 - [ Badass Mode: *ON* ]

This music!! ❤️

Ugh I just love this scene. And I just love josh Stewart so much!!

The collection is an urban legend

The first and the sequel are so good !!!

Wow this scene is so awsome so intense and the music gets u pumped the slow motion this is one of the best endings ive seen :) makes you wanna have ur own ending with this song lolol

Underrated film the ending to this sequel is good what a film please make a 3rd film .
