'House of Wax' (2005)

A group of friends get stranded in a small town, where they visit a waxworks museum, and pretty much everyone dies. A famous scene includes one of the characters having his Achilles tendon cut, being coated in wax, and having part of his face pulled off. Ouch!

An ape detonates a nuclear bomb, wiping out all life on Earth. A bit sad and nihilistic, but there you have it.
