Best death scene: Vader striking down Obi-Wan in ANH.
Most grusome death scene: Just about any of the deaths in the movie Dreamcatcher. God, that movie sucked. They royally butchered King's story. Even with getting to watch Final Flight of the Osiris before the movie, it wasn't nearly worth it.

Grewsome goes to a good portion of the Halloween Movies. Have your head crushed by a guy who wears a william shatner Mask with his bear hands is pretty grewsome

I think any film made by the good people at Troma is likely to qualify.Symmetry wrote:Ever heard of Toxic Crusader?
The penis-eating condom from Killer Condom is just classic!
another memorably gruesome scene that i recently saw was from Anthropophagous 2000 (directed by Andreas Schnaas of the Violent Shit trilogy fame)--a man attacks a pregnant woman, tears her stomache open, reaches in and ripps out the fetus and then eats it. I think this scene was in the original film as well. God bless low-budget splatter films.
I'll swallow your soul!
Not only did he direct that movie, he also played the part of said chainsaw weilding nutcase (named Derek). I guess that must've helped.Spyder wrote:Probably the scene in Bad Taste where the main guy jumps at the alien with a chainsaw, bores is his through the alien's chest and somehow manages to come out the alien's rear end while saying "I'm born again!" This was a humanoid alien BTW.
PS: Bad Taste was directed by everyone's favorite New Zealand director Peter Jackson. How the hell he convinced new line to give him money to make LotR I have no idea...
"May we see your portfolio?"
"Certainly." Peter Jackson gets up and puts the tape in the machine.

Thing of the MuppetShow .. and then add sex, STDs, drugs, and murder. It's 2 hours of my life I can never get back... and memories I wish I never got!
Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.

Dude the best death scenese in Cienma....
1. James Cagney "White Heat" Top of the world MA!, gave birth to Tony Montana's "Say Hello to my little Friend"
2. Slim Pickens "Dr. Stangelove" (I have a 1 megaton bomb between my legs Yeeehaaa)
3. Al Pachino "Scarface" sure it was done before, but to most of the audiance here "Say Hello to my little Friend" was the ultimate death scene
4. Peter Lorre "M", got to be the best killing of a serial killer in early talky movies, good use of theme and music, and best of all, that cry "I can't help myself!"
5. William Holden "The Wild Bunch" ok, it's just great
6. James Coburn "Cross of Iron" shit, Sgt. Stiner, getting hozed by his own command.....
7. Chow Yun-Fat: Any movie made with John Woo....
8. Steven Seagal "Executive Desision" five minutes into the movie Segal looses his head!
9. Sean Connery "Robin and Marion" (Now this is the way Robin Hood should end)
10. Trigun, Nicholas D. Wolfwood, *sniff*, all because he refused to kill anymore....

I do know that the novel describes him as being pinned to a (rock? Stump? Broken Pillar?) with the corpses of all the orcs he'd killed surrounding him, several feet deep.

In the book there was archers lining the hill crest peppering him with arrows and he killed a lot more orcs.....but he was dead by the time the others got to him so they didnt know about Frodo and Sam going over the river and Merry and Pippin being captured.
