Revolver


BAD GUY: Slim Biggins
TASTY DEATH RATING: 7
REASONS: Billed as a four time national bodybuilding champion and "six guys rolled into one", Slim chases after Jake and when he climbs over a damaged wall, he makes the the mistake of trying to get his gun ready to shoot on the way down. It did SHOOT, all right. Straight into Slim's face. Even bad ass mob guys get careless every now and then.

Street Kings


BAD GUY: Captain Jack Wander
TASTY DEATH RATING: 7
REASONS: Tom Ludlow only wanted to punish the guilty. His best friend and captain, Wander wanted to do the same but only on his terms. Using criminals to hunt other criminals and racking up a ton of money in the process. Ludlow doesn't feel there should be any exceptions to punishing the wicked and saving the innocent. He handcups his captain to the stairway rail, then when he hears his confession; he shoots him.

Big Trouble in Little China (1)


BAD GUY: Rain
TASTY DEATH RATING: 8
REASONS: The sword play was awesome as well as the flying around. But in his one last despearte attempt to defeat his enemy, he gets stabbed by a flying sword and then explodes when he hits the nearest wall. Sorry, Rain. Clearly Wang-Chi stayed on Wudan Mountain longer than you did.

Big Trouble in Little China (2)


BAD GUY: Thunder
TASTY DEATH RATING: 9
REASONS: Thunder failed to protect his Master Lopan. So he decides to go out with a bang; literally. His version of Sepukku causes his guts to fly into the hallway like trash and then bring the whole roof down.

Big Trouble in Little China (3)


BAD GUY: Lightning
TASTY DEATH RATING: 8
REASONS: It's a shame in that day and age when a man who can command lightning cannot avoid being smashed by a giant concrete Buddha.

Big Trouble in Little China (4)


BAD GUY: Lopan
TASTY DEATH RATING: 8
REASONS: He goes through all that trouble to become flesh again, and all he did was set himself up for Good ol' Jack Burton to throw a knife in his forehead. WHOOPS!

Hidalgo



BAD GUY: Katib

TASTY DEATH RATING: 8

REASONS: Katib had been trying to kill Frank Hopkins and Hidalgo and even hurt the poor horse in a dead fall trap. Katib gets his just deserts, when in a fight with Hopkins, the cowboy shoves him onto one and as Katib thinks he's going to be spared, Hopkins ropes the release mechanism and sends the bad guy down to greet several spikes.
