Worst movie death scene ever? More like BEST movie death scene ever. (video)

[Video Link] Apparently, a clip from the Turkish movie "Kareteci Kız 1973." HT: Joe Sabia.

• [Teresa Nielsen Hayden]

  He has wonderful breath control for someone who’s been shot through the diaphragm.

  • [Florian Bösch]

    Exercise to master, gotten shot trough the diaphragm every morning at a zen cloister for 10 years.

• [Ariel Martín Pérez]

  Finally, I think I will die on the bed…

• [BDiamond]

  Surely the best death scene is that of Basil Rathbone’s prolonged Shakespeare-declaiming death in The Comedy of Terrors. Surely.

  • [Antinous / Moderator]

    The worst death scene is Dina Meyer in Starship Troopers.

    DIZZY
    I bought the farm, didn’t I, Johnny ?

    JOHNNY
    No, you’re gonna be alright, Diz !

    DIZZY
    It’s alright ’cause I got to have you, Johnny…

    • [niktemadur]

      But that’s on purpose, Starship Troopers is like a Beverly Hills 90210 gore splatterfest in the outer space!  With a very strong fascistic subtext, to boot.  All in all, popcorn entertainment of a high caliber.

• [eclecticbrotha]

  Oh shit, is that the actual soundtrack? They stole that from Marvin Gaye’s soundtrack for the movie “Trouble Man.”

  • [Petzl]

    Do you actually recognize the music?  (Personally, it sounded very Lalo Schifrin to me.)

    • [David Davion]

      The best part of the music is, you could put this scene in Austin Powers and everything fits in perfectly.

• [dioptase]

  Don’t mess with Christina Applegate unless you want to die the same way.

• [Alex]

  I freaking love Turkish cinema. I thought the death of the Wizard at the end of Turkish Star Wars was pretty intense, but it’s nothing compared to this.

• [GawainLavers]

  Was that “Wilhelm” slowed down to half speed?

  • [ldobe]

    “Wilhelm” has a distinct downward fall.  At half speed I think it would still be recognizable.

    Original Wilhelm: Here

    Stretched to double length with 1970s style Tech: Here

    Stretched to double length with the best tool I could get my hands on in ten minutes: Here

    Stretched to quadruple length with the same modern tool I used as the last clip: Here

    They’re all soundcloud links.  I’m pretty sure it’s fair use.  As this is commentary.  And a small sample.

    I didn’t use the ’70s tech to do a quarterspeed sample, since it’s unrecognizable as anything: GGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSHHHH.

  • [niktemadur]

    I’m thinking Shatner studied this for The Wrath Of Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan…!

• [Jeff Ritzmann]

  I didn’t know Lita Ford did films.

• [franko]

  whoa, that was so AUTHENTIC. it had the ring of truth!

• [Brainspore]

  “I know what you’re thinking: ‘Did she shoot me six times, or only five?’ Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself.”

• [inkfumes]

  Best death evaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh……

  • [Brainspore]

    I’m not convinced that he actually died at the end of that scene. I think he was just pausing to catch his breath while she reloaded for round 2.

  • [Mark Gowan]

    My thought exactly.

• [cstatman]

  best MO ever!

• [Stefan Jones]

  Poor bastard. Dying without his shirt tucked in, totally undignified.

• [Mark_Frauenfelder]

  I like the part where he gets shot and screams for a long time.

  • [Donald Petersen]

    The death so nice he did it twice.  Then twice more.  And then again.

• [Aaron Gilliland]

  Why is Rowan Atkinson wearing an unconvincing mustache in a Turkish movie?

  • [CJR]

    Thought exactly the same thing – almost a dead-ringer!

• [Editz]

  Kind of reminds me of this:

• [Geoduck]

  Eh. Paul Reubens in the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie is still the champion. 

  • [morcheeba]

    a classic! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCOzKufIIzs

• [BarBarSeven]

  Prologue: “One day I will make a movie with a very, very long death scene with a guy getting shot in the gut!”

  Pre-Production: “This death scene with a guy getting shot in the gut!… I want it to be very long!”

  Production: “When you die in this scene after getting shot in the gut, I want you to die for a very long time!”

  Post-Production: “Actors! Idiots! This death scene where the guy was shot in the guy was not long enough! Please, slow it down so it can last longer!”

  Premiere: “At last, my long death scene where a guy is shot in the gut will be seen by all!”

  Epilogue: “Finally! Despite the film’s initial failure, my long death scene where a guy is shot in the gut is appreciated the world over! Thank you Internet!”

• [snagglepuss]

  Needs more Rob Schneider.

• [Acoustic Ross]

  Seth McFarlane wrote and directed Turkish movies in the 70s?

• [Boundegar]

  See, this is what shows like Breaking Bad are lacking – intense drama.

• [koncher]

  He finally falls on a single bed. That’s so resonant.

• [niktemadur]

  The B/W cliché, the guy gets a bloodless bullet in the stomach, goes “Aaah, ya got me!” and drops dead instantly.
  Which reminds me of “crime news” magazine headlines in Mexico:  “Stabbed 36 times, died instantly”.

  • [Tim Drage]

    A bloodless bullet in the stomach from a gun pointed at the floor near his feet somewhere.

• [Bodhipaksa Dharmacari]

  In Scotland we used to play a game called “Dead Man’s Fall.” We’d find a steep grassy slope, at the top of which everyone would stand, except for the killer, who would be down below. You’d get to choose how you were going to be killed, and the killer would dutifully mime the act of throwing a dagger, or shooting a machine gun, or firing an arrow, or whatever. The point of the game was to die spectacularly, with much screaming, clutching of the body, and tumbling. I realize now that we were all complete amateurs.

• [knoxblox]

  This guy should do children’s birthday parties. Give all the kids pop guns and he’ll die over the course of the afternoon.

• [SomeGuyNamedMark]

  He should’ve said “I am dead, Horatio!” at the end

• [TwilightNewsSite]

  I’m not sure, but I think she got him.

• [Barış Korkut]

  Probably obvious but, it says “the end” at the end of the scene, which makes it more hilarious. The movie just ends like this.

• [Kimmo]

  I’m not so sure this is a good death scene at all…

  It’s like, too bad to be so bad it’s good.

  I think that’s a first, IME.

• [Jose]

  I think he’s mainly upset because he shot himself in the foot.

• [Robert Baruch]

  I Locust! Fsck to you!

• [Ramon Lopez]

  WRONG! I don’t think he’s dead at all! In fact it’s more like he’s about to attack back… it’s the BEST OPENED END ever!

• [DewiMorgan]

  The blood pack was the best bit, for me. They coulda cut to it just before his hand squeezed it. Or not used slow-mo. But no: slow-mo shot with the blood pack beautifully visible. Just, perfect.

• [heligo]

  Why doesn’t he just DIE dammit???

• [jdo]

• [kiptw]

  “UNH! My kidney! OWWW! My spleen! UGH! My appendix! CRAP! Latissima dorsae! SHIT! Shot my own foot! Et mi? Then die, Mustafa!”

• [Tracy Adams]

  To be shot over and over whilst screaming and thrashing about, yet, somehow managing to hang on to one’s gun is simply amazing in itself.
