I've got one!

Remember that Game Over screen from Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped? You know, the blue swirling background has instead been turned to red, Uka Uka appears, and says to you in a deep, bursting demonic voice: "GAME OVER." Boy, that game over screen was awesome. Even if was terrifingly scary.

Video for Game Over screen below:

Dark Souls had the best one :D When your character falls, the screen fades and in the middle the notorious 2 words come out.

Miracle of Sound also made a music video with the title, which is about the first game.

I liked GTA V screen of Game over, when mission failed in any way.

In GTA IV I liked not exactly the screen of it, but I liked the phone calls after failed mission, that Niko made, when game resumed.

I liked Jak and Daxter Game over screen, but I did not play it, just have seen on Youtube, I just found it funny, what daxter said.

I also liked game over screen from Age of Empires III, when I lost the mission, even though it maybe was not something special.

I liked also Harry Potter I,II, III PS2, when I was caught at night by prefects, or Snape, and even more Harry Potter I by Filch, even though it was scary for me back then.

Some of Ace Combat 7's game overs are morbidly amusing. 
In the mission "444", allowing the enemy bombers to destroy the base will result in all the inmates cheering while Bandog repeatedly yells for everyone to shut up.

Also in "444", crashing while landing will result in Bandog gloating abut winning the bet he made that you were gonna die.

During "Transfer Orders", shooting down McKinsey's plane at the start of the mission will award you 1000 points, despite resulting in an instant game over.  Additionally, Bandog will say that the mission is a failure, but that the cargo wasn't worth protecting anyway.  It's like the developers knew people were gonna shoot him down.
