While I forget the actor's name, I always found some cheer in the death-by-flaregun end of the psycho villian in the Australian "Dead Calm".  A truly awful villian deserves a truly epically awful end . . .

Wasn't that Billy Zane?
He's in the cast.  Hope so. :wink: :thumbup:

I personally never found it funny, but a lot of other people tend to laugh at Tom Conti's death at the end of Reuben, Reuben (1983)

Yes, it is him. Sam Neill and Nicole Kidman also star in it. When the film was released, people unfairly compared it to the Orson Welles film which had not been completed. :question:

Trinity in Matrix Revolutions-3 hour movie and 65% of it was her death scene.  Actually  when Neo died was pretty good, because that meant there would be no more sequels.



Well, that quote aged poorly.
At least, that's what Gary Busey told me...

I think that quote is spot-on... unless there were more sequels...  :bluesad:

ROAD HOUSE (1989)

BEN GAZZARA as villain Brad Wesley, 4 or 5 shots in, sits down hard on a glass coffee table... and goes thru it arse first.  :smile:

In the book Die Hard is based on, Nothing Lasts Forever, the villain falls like that but he has the cop's daughter with him and they both fall to their deaths  :buggedout:

Gabriel Knight

When the Marlon Wayans's character finally goes away in DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, what an annoying guy. Boy that was a really, really bad movie. Thank God for LORD OF THE RINGS, or the fantasy genre would've died a while ago.
Check my crappy and unpopular reviews and ratings:

ER

The way they killed Chef off on South Park was so personal and absurdly gratuitous I had to smile. (Not from a movie, I know....)
What does not kill me makes me stranger.

Dr. Whom

Samuel L Jackson's character getting chomped in Deep Blue Sea, right after his 'we're going to make it together' speech.
