Some of the most memorable scenes come from Alfred Hitchcock.  There
is a scene where Paul Newman and a woman playing his wife (Joanne
Woodward ?) have to kill a spy in their house.  Moreover, they must
be quiet about it since the spy has henchpersons outside.  After
unsuccessfully stabbing him in the shoulder with a carving knife,
they finally manage to cram his head into a gas oven and suffocate
him.  Another was a Hitchcock film about a sexual psychopath who can
only get satisfaction from killing.  We see him taking a woman into
his room, then the camera pulls back from the door, down the stairs,
out the front door, and across the street.  

How about the scene in 2001 when HAL kills the three men who are in
suspended animation, and the only thing that we see are their faces
and the computer readouts on their conditions, ending with "Life
functions terminated".

Or the scene in Bridge On The River Kwai, when Alec Guinness is
hauled out of the "sweat box" and is told by Sessue Hayakawa that
his demands regarding the prisoners' conditions are going to be met.
Guinness pulls himself up, adjusts his jacket, and straightens his
tie, then goes out to see his men, who realize what has happened ahd
start cheering and running.

And why hasn't anyone mentioned the Marx Brothers yet?
