Notes

• Near the middle of the film, Yuri mentioned that André Baptiste Sr. had a reputation of hacking off the limbs of those who opposed him, but since it is unknown if any of these mentioned people had died from their injuries after having their limbs hacked off, none will be counted.
• Shortly after Yuri's meeting with André Baptiste Sr., he mentions how André Baptiste Jr. was a cannibal and would eat the hearts of his victims, but since it is unknown exactly how many he'd killed and cannibalized, only one will be counted for the minimum.
• Later in the film, Yuri mentions that after the first massacre that he helped General Solomon and his men carry out, a dozen other massacres were carried out the same week, but since it is unknown exactly how many were killed during these massacres, none will be counted.
