The Violent Kind is a 2010 American horror film directed by The Butcher Brothers (Mitchell Altieri and Phil Flores), who co-wrote it with Adam Weis.

It stars Cory Knauf, Taylor Cole, Bret Roberts, Christina Prousalis, Tiffany Shepis, Joseph McKelheer, Samuel Child, and Joe Egender.

As the others attempt to figure out a plan, Elroy sexually assaults Michelle, but she surprises him by suddenly waking up and responding positively to him.

Meanwhile, Cody and Megan discover that their closest neighbor is dead, and his wall is littered with missing persons reports that date back to the 1950s.

As Q walks down the road, he meets Michelle's dead husband, who is now alive again and talking about hearing strange, beautiful music.

Vernon sadistically toys with Cody, demanding to know where Michelle is and hinting that she is critically important to plans that involve a cataclysmic end to humanity.

Murderball kills Q, and Vernon reveals that he knew Michelle's location the whole time; he just wanted to torture them for the fun of it.

As Cody and Megan flee to a nearby town, they see the people around them dropping dead, and the sky darkens ominously.
