best movie archery scenes
gstoneberg:
O my, I'd rather have 10 fire ant stings than 1 red ant. And, it usually works about that way too. I hate ants down here.

I like the scene in Apocalipto where they turn the guys loose, then start taking shots at 'em, Bub
Justin Snyder:
Definitely King Arthur with Clive Owen and Keira Knightley. When the Saxons are chasing them and they get to the frozen lake and stop. The Saxon archer tries to hit the knights but his arrow falls way short. The knights pull out their bows and start dropping people. Nothing like a half dozen guys with bows holding off a couple hundred with swords.
Dane:
I can think of a few, Noel.
Hero - fantastic, beautiful movie. Some impressive mass archery scenes.
Diary of the Dead - the professor zaps a zombie kid and pins him to the wall. Always satisfying.
Predator - Arnold builds a panda bow.
Daybreakers - tons of archery, mostly crossbows to kill vampires and for vampires to capture humans to use as food.
The Lost Boys - I think there was some archery in the original movie. You see bows occassionally in some of the direct to video sequels.
The second installment of Underworld (can't recall the name, but Kate Beckinridge is in them, and that alone is worth watching for. :) )
Van Hellsing (sp?). A kind of fantasy repeating crossbow. Dumb but fun, and Kate Beckinridge is in this movie too.
Lord of the Rings - varous archery throughout the three films.
Rambo II - Rambo zaps this evil NV officer with an exploding arrow. Boom.
Road Warrior - lots of punk mauraders and punk good guys with bows of various designs.
The Hunt - a small budget horror movie. Compounds, but the hungry, deadly aliens are fun.
Archery in the Resident Evil set in the desert around Las Vegas. Alice zaps a zombie nicely with a small crossbow.
mullet:
And don't forget 300, when the sky turns dark with arrows and the Spartans hide under their shields.
