Trying to pick the best threat in movie history is a seemingly impossible task. From the original 'Cape Fear' to 'Scarface' to 'Inglorious Basterds,' they have been a part of our movie lexicon for decades. (Plus, how do you even begin to narrow down the thousands of Clint Eastwood one-liners?) Luckily, Harry Hanrahan, the man behind The 100 Greatest Movie Insults and The 100 Greatest Movie Quotes, just posted The 100 Greatest Movie Threats -- and everything from 'The Shining' to 'Mulan' (seriously) makes an appearance.

Hit the jump to check out this extremely entertaining montage.

I can't believe they didn't include Westley's threat in "The Princess Bride." I know it's a bit long but it IS quite a threat.
Prince Humperdinck: First things first, to the death.
Westley: No. To the pain.
Prince Humperdinck: I don't think I'm quite familiar with that phrase.
Westley: I'll explain and I'll use small words so that you'll be sure to understand, you warthog faced buffoon.
Prince Humperdinck: That may be the first time in my life a man has dared insult me.
Westley: It won't be the last. To the pain means the first thing you will lose will be your feet below the ankles. Then your hands at the wrists. Next your nose.
Prince Humperdinck: And then my tongue I suppose, I killed you too quickly the last time. A mistake I don't mean to duplicate tonight.
Westley: I wasn't finished. The next thing you will lose will be your left eye followed by your right.
Prince Humperdinck: And then my ears, I understand let's get on with it.
Westley: WRONG. Your ears you keep and I'll tell you why. So that every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish. Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out, "Dear God! What is that thing," will echo in your perfect ears. That is what to the pain means. It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery forever.
Prince Humperdinck: I think you're bluffing.
Westley: It's possible, Pig, I might be bluffing. It's conceivable, you miserable, vomitous mass, that I'm only lying here because I lack the strength to stand. But, then again... perhaps I have the strength after all.
[slowly rises and points sword directly at the prince]
Westley: DROP... YOUR... SWORD!
