Best death scene in a movie

[Dante]

I go for Die hard "Yippe Kye Aye Motherfucker" (sp?)

treefrog called in her vote for Roy Batty's death scene in Blade Runner

will dirtyfruit stand by the electric laser mesh thingumy from resident evil?

Tune in to find out...

 

[Orang Utan]

Michael Ironside in Total Recall is one that immediately springs to mind

 

[Dante]

was he the one who died of oxygen starvation?

 

[Orang Utan]

was he the one who died of oxygen starvation?

No, he loses his arms and falls to his death

 

[Dante]

oooh yeah, that is good

 

[Madusa]

I like all the deaths in Kill Bill... A cop out i know, but cant really think of anymore right now...

 

[Spion]

Mulholland Drive. The whole film is based on a death and hinges on the few seconds around the actual event.

As for death scenes, well, I wouldn't big up Saving Private Ryan in any other way but the scene where the yank is killed with a knife by the big German is pretty chilling.

 

[Madusa]

ooh ooh... I like the baddy's death from Who Framed Roger Rabbit when he gets run over by a huge steamroller and dropped in the boiling pot of green goo. Yikes!

 

[Orang Utan]

Major TJ King Kong in Dr Strangelove
Burt Lancaster in Zulu Dawn
The girl who gets run over in Final Destination
All the baddies in Raiders

 

[dylanredefined]

The end of butch cassidy and the sundance kid is cool .

 

[Madusa]

ooh ooh and there's a scene in 'Coffy' where this pimp double crosses some mob guys...but he's really innocent and has been framed but he's an arsehole anyway so we dont shed a tear, but he 'takes a lil ride' with these mob dudes. At some backwoods, told to get out with a noose around his neck... which is still attched to the car...

He gets dragged around the road. ... but it's great when all you see is a dicapitated dummy flying around like a balloon. Pure jokes.

[Fez909]

That one from Scanners.

 

[DJ Squelch]

 

[DUMBO.66]

the first death In Cube Zero

 

[tendril]

Not strictly a movie but I did like alf roberts scene in coronation street. Just dies quietly in a chair surrounded by the party go-ers.

 

[GarfieldLeChat]

scarface of course ... say hello to my liddle fwend...

 

[Vash]

I'd probably go for Ben Kingsley death in House of sand and fog.

 

[DUMBO.66]

or what about when Bond pushes Goldfinger out of the plane?

 

[zoooo]

I'm still quite partial to the hail of bullets deaths of Bonnie and Clyde.

 

[Dante]

sundance and butch is a good one.

i've been wracking (or gentle taping my brains ) to come up with a decent death scene in Star Wars or the Matrix.

Boromirs death in LOTR is quite cool, but not as good as the fight scene after.

 

[gabi]

Rutger Hauer in Bladerunner... lotta cool death scenes in that actually... but rutger's topped em...

 

[BadlyDrawnGirl]

Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) in 'Die Hard' for one. No blood, no nowt. Just an inspired portrayal of the sudden demise of a cunt.

 

[Dante]

Rutger Hauer in Bladerunner... lotta cool death scenes in that actually... but rutger's topped em...

thats two votes for rutgeur hauer, treefrog and gabi....

I still stick with die hard...

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

I think the Pris[Darryl Hanna] death scene is the best one in Bladerunner. Over the top android gyrations.

The Joe Pesci and brother Dominic death scene in Casino: baseball bats in a cornfield.

Col. Kurtz in Apcalypse Now, where his death is edited together with the sacrifice of a bull.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

thats two votes for rutgeur hauer, treefrog and gabi....

I still stick with die hard...

Best death in Die Hard is the body that flies out the window, and lands on the windscreen of the limo.

 

[dylanredefined]

Blade runner is cool .No one mentions leon "for matildha " .

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Also, the Terminator death scenes. Arnie's in the first, and that mercury guy in the second. They go on forever.

 

[MikeMcc]

How can everybody have forgotten the stomach burster in Alien!?

 

[red rose]

Blade runner is cool .No one mentions leon "for matildha " .

Ooooh I hadn't thought of that. I was going to say the really gory ones in Final Destination 2 (crap film, very cool deaths) but now I think I'm going to have to vote for Leon
