Braveheart


BAD GUY: English Noble
TASTY DEATH RATING: 9
REASONS: The old English Noble kills an innocent woman. That innocent woman happened to be Wallace's wife. He comes back into the town, dispatches the English guards with some help from his friends and then slices the throat of the Noble . . . .just how he did his wife.

Rising Sun


BAD GUY: Bob Richmond
TASTY DEATH RATING: 9
REASONS: Bob is an opportunist. He wants to ride high up the corporate ladder; so much he kills a woman and frames it on the son of a Japanese business man. When the friends of the Japanese guy find out, they attack Bob, and throw him into a vat of wet concrete. The fall knocks him out and he slowly sinks to his death.

Dogville






BAD GUY: The Entire Town of Dogville
TASTY DEATH RATING: 10
REASONS: Can you believe this vile story was a play? I suppose that was the point; the exploration of the darkness of the human soul. Poor Grace comes to this town to flee the mob but finds out the towns folk are much worse. Keeping her safe from the mob comes with a price in the form of abuse, rape, forced labor and they even make her wear a collar like a dog. In the end, the mob comes looking for her and the mobster in question is her own father. She decides to emprace her father's offer of power and allows the mobsters to kill every person in Dogville. Grace's betrayed lover, Tom Hoover, recieves a bullet from her. Everybody abused her but it was his betrayal that made her believe only she should kill him.

The Prestige


BAD GUY: Robert Angier
TASTY DEATH RATING: 8
REASONS: Angier hated his rival after he accidentally killed his wife. Ever since then he wanted to best his magic acts. He did it to the point where he framed him for murder and even tried to take his daughter away. Borden shot Angier and gave the big reveal: he actually had a twin brother. Angier couldn't have believed it was that easy but his arrogance lead to his downfall, not to mention thanks to Tesla's device; he caused his own tasty deaths with each magic act.

The Living Daylights




BAD GUY: Necros
TASTY DEATH RATING: 9
REASONS: Necros fights Bond over a bundle of opium. Due to a mishap from the damsel in distress, she sends them out the plane; tangling over this stuff. Necros fights Bond over this cord and Bond proceeds to cut the ropes. Necros hangs on and even grab the spy's boot. NO PROBLEM, thinks Bond as he stars cutting his boot lace. Necros screams and then plummets the 80 thousand or so feet to the canyons below. BONUS: Poor Necros, it looks like he's holding up the boot in some vain attempt to slow his descent.

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring


BAD GUY: Chief Uruk-Hai
TASTY DEATH RATING: 9
REASONS: The big evil warrior kills the noble Boromir. Aragon comes to his aide, stabbing the Uruk-Hai in the leg. The evil creature pulls the blade out and licks it, growling the whole time. Aragon and him sword fight. Aragon chops off the guy's arm and stabbs him in the gut. The Uruk-Hai still does his "dominace" growl by grabbing the blade and pulling his enemy closer. Aragon is NOT impressed and promptly cuts his head off.

Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers


BAD GUY: Goblin who was in the wrong spot
TASTY DEATH RATING: 6
REASONS: Uruks and Goblins are marching on Helms Deep. They are chanting their war cries to the frightened humans. One poor old man couldn't hold his arrow string long enough and fired accidentally. As you can see from the above photo . . . . .at least he didn't miss. :)
