Best death scenes in movies

Dar Robinson also jumped off the CN Tower for some TV show (might have been That's Incredible).

 

Wait -- eight pages and nobody's mentioned Janet Leigh in Psycho?

 

Vincent Ludwig (Ricardo Montalban) in Naked Gun. Can't beat the USC marching band adding the finishing touches.

 

Yes, the sleeping bag kill is repeated in Jason X, an enjoyable enough movie.

Also going to throw in most of the Freddy kills in NOES 3: Dream Warriors

The puppet strings death is really good.

 

Is that the one where they had to delete one of the murders because it was so gruesome, it would have earned the movie an NC-17? I know it was one of the Freddy movies.

 

In Friday VII they had to replace a head-smashing scene that was quite gruesome. That can be found on the Camp Crystal Lake box set extras though.

Not sure if they had to delete a Freddy kill.

 

The guy in the Green Mile who really did the murder Michael Clarke Duncan was on death row for.

 

The college professor in Scanners.

 

I'm absolutely positive they had to delete a Freddy kill. Something to do with a guy on a motorcycle. I just can't remember which of the films it was in.

 

Well, in Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child, the main heroine's boyfriend suffered a pretty gruesome motorcycle death. If that's what you're referring to, I wonder how much worse they could have made it.

 

The Samuel L. Jackson death in Deep Blue Sea was pretty sad and funny at the same time. If you haven't seen it, it's probably on TNT as we speak...

 

I think that's it. I remember hearing about it at the time, that they had to edit the scene to keep the R rating.
