Funniest Death in a movie

[Guest EQ]

I don't know if someone already said this... but in Rush Hour... when the main heel falls from the roof and dies... Chris Tucker just goes... "Woo... you know he dead."

 

That cracks me up every time.

[Guest dreamer420]

my friends hate me because i've been known to quote that line after seeing a nasty death in a movie or on tv.

[Guest EQ]

I do that sometimes too... also in the bloopers for Rush Hour 2... when the the girl dies..

 

"You know she ain't gonna be in Rush Hour 3"

 

lmao

[Guest Jerome Drake]

I dunno if this counts.

 

But when Dante's girl fucked a dead guy in the bathroom in Clerks.

[Guest Prototype450]

Ice T's death in 3k miles to Graceland was hilarious. He was like a unstoppable killling machine wiping out cop after cop. So when he does his tornado gun trick (where he hangs upside down and is spinning in a circle) Kevin Pollack and his partner shoot him and kill him.

Watch it on HBO and you'll see what i mean.

lmao

Actually, he said that after the guy falls out of the window. Still a funny line, just switch "she" for "he".

[Guest Jerome Drake]

Heres a funny one.

 

I watch Oz on Showcase on Friday.

 

And Robson and Keller were gonna kill Zabitz.

 

Anyway in the copyroom, Zabitz is in there alone. And incomes Keller, and incomes Robson from the other side. Zabitz thinks Robsons on his side, and tells him to attack Keller. But Robson says Schillinger wants him dead. Robson and Keller agure on whos gonna kill Zabitz, while Zabitz begs for his dear life. Just than Zabitz has a heart attack. Robson: Later

Keller: See ya

 

and Zabitz is left there dead.

 

Funny shit.

[Guest HBK16]

Once again I do not know the name of the movie but it was an old 80's movie. A guy fucked a girl to death. It was funny to me because of her face right before she died. It was great.

Yeah, you're right... but you get the idea

[Guest CoreyLazarus416]

Typical jock type guy is benching something like 400 pounds, when suddenly the killer shows up. He doesn't notice him, and continues lifting...so the killer procedes to slam a dumb bell ONTO HIS GROIN CAUSING HIM TO DROP THE OTHER WEIGHTS HE'S BENCH PRESSING AND DECAPITATE HIMSELF IN THE PROCESSS. People...it don't get no better than THAT.

 

That sounds like a COMPLETE rip-off of the headcrushing scene in The Toxic Avenger...

[Guest fairtoflair7]

In Child's play 3, when Chucky puts real bullets in the paint-ball guns. It's just so funny when he is doing it with his laugh. It's also funny when they are in the woods and one of the team leaders gets shot. Then someone says "I think he's dead".

[Guest Intimacy Goblin]

What about both deaths of the main demon in Army of Darkness? That was pretty damn funny.

Leathal Weapon 2: Bad guy in car crash decapitated by surfboard.

Broken Arrow: Bad Navy seal finishes telling girl he can kill her with his thumb, and she tomahawk throws a hammer into his head.

Death Hunt: Bad guy bursts into Charles Brosnon's cabin, sees Brosnon on floor. Broson (his reaction is priceless) looks up, says "Welcome", and shoots him with a sawed-off double barrel shotgun.

Hard Target: Lance Henriksen blows up after dismantiling a grenade, which went off anyway since he kept the fuse too close to the explosive.

I always thought in Childs Play 3 where near the end the dorky kid jumps on the grenade to save everyone and gets blown to pieces was funny

 

Also in high school when we were watching the Malkovich version of "Of Mice And Men", I freaking burst out laughing when Lenny got shot at the end. Everyone looked at me, and I was like "What? That was great!"

WHOO!! POST #499

[Guest Steve J. Rogers]

Don't know if it counts for funny but Jimmy Cagney's "MADE IT MA! TOP OF THE WORLD" in "White Heat" going out in a blaze of glory has to rank up there as an all time death scene

 

I also got a few chuckles out of "Public Enemy #1" when Cagney is dropped off at his mom's house

How was that scene funny? I always thought it was a shocking and chilling scene which sticks in the mind because it was so randomly evil. The vivid 'bloom' of red on the girls chest contrasted with her lighter dress and emphasized in a striking visual touch the incomprehensible act which had just been commited.

For one thing, having characters dressed in light-colored clothing who are then drenched in blood is an old cliche, I've seen it in a hundred movies.

 

For another, the "gang members" in AOP13 were some of the most laughably unrealistic "delinquints" this side of West Side Story. One gets the feeling that John Carpenter definitely never lived in a real slum. When was the last time you heard about a group of racially and sexually diverse thirtysomethings wreaking havoc for no good reason with military assault rifles, while pausing to murder ice cream men and their customers along the way? It was too much, and me and my room,ate laughed for a good thirty minutes straight after seeing that scene.

[Guest Steve J. Rogers]

Some good funny ones are when they take license liberally with a real persons death. Some great ones:

 

Airplane with Patsy Cline in "Sweet Dreams" Basically they run out of cloud cover and think they've dodged a bullet but next thing they see is a mountain and its "OH SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!"

 

Of course in reality Cline's plane went down due to real crappy weather, it landed hard in a dense area with lots of trees, no explosion, Patsy's body was in darn near perfect condition (aside from her being dead of course)

 

Another good one is "Hoffa"'s assumption that Hoffa was gunned down in a diner parking lot before being moved to God knows where

 

I am NOT touching the Babe Ruth Story's ending of Babe's life

 

I don't know the title but the story of the Alamo with Wayne as Davey Crockett kind of fucked up the real history (Gee I didn't know women AND children were kept at the Alamo and were SAVED)

 

There are no doubt tons more

The blood gushing in Dracula: Dead and loving it

the "They've Killed Fritz!" scene from Wizards

When the LF's brother gets hit by a truck in TCM1

The black night in Monty Python and the Holy Grail

[Guest Intimacy Goblin]

One of those priceless Dirty Harry movies (can't remember which one)

Dirty Harry: We're gonna stop you.

Bank Robber: Who's we?

Dirty Harry: My friends Smith, Wesson, and me.

(DH pulls out 357 and blows everyone away.

 

The scene in Angela's Ashes where the father is in the pub with his dead kid using the coffin as a beer coaster.

[Guest CED Ordonez]

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon where I think Tsai gets nailed in the head with the disc-like blade. The expression on his face with the blade lodged in his forehead made me laugh.

Assault was just a straight out suspense thriller, a B-movie which deliberately had the barest of plots or characterisation. The characterisation wasn't the key to the films effectiveness (never really is for Carpenter) because Assault was only concerned with racking up the tension, you don't honestly think Carpenter was concerned with painting a seriously detailed and accurate picture of urban gang crime do you? Its one thing to mock an overwrought or self worthy film of being laughably unrealistic when it tries to portray something in a dramatically serious tone but in low budget exploitation pictures like Assualt realism was often treated as an afterthought anyway.

[Guest Intimacy Goblin]

AP13 was just a remake of the John Wayne movie Rio Bravo (or whatever one of those 'Rio' movies he made, anyway, the one where he holds the cattle baron's bro in jail) and the recent Ghosts of Mars was a remake of both of those. I mean look at the plots for AP13 and Rio, they're the same goddamn thing.

[Guest Intimacy Goblin]

Bloody computer.

[Guest Steve J. Rogers]

Not nessecarilly funny due to how he died, though seeing him get attacked by a swarm of bees was chuckle inducing, but funny because of the uproar it caused with Macaulay Culkin in "My Girl" Basically parent groups were all up in arms because they didn't want their kids traumatized by seeing Kevin from "Home Alone" dead.

 

Geez, I wonder how bad it would have been had he'd done "The Good Son" right after Home Alone (BTW both were very good movies and great roles by Culkin, its a shame the kid's life went straight to hell and he became extremely well known for playing the annoying brat Kevin in Home Alone, he did have talent)

I looked at it this way: throughout my moviegoing career, I've been tormented by dozens, nay, hundreds of young girl "actors" with no talent other than making grown people think they're precious who all looked exactly like that girl. She was starting to get on my nerves too, and then... "This isn't vanilla!" (silenced gunshot) Not to mention that the bullet squib and bloodpack were ridiculously large, especially for a child, and probably left bruises on her for days. I'm sorry, but we had to stop the movie, we were laughing so hard for so long.

[Guest y2jailbait]

TERROR FIRMER!!!!!! The funniest death's ever caught on film. One was when this fat cop was "seduced" by this chick in a black dress. He follows her up this escalator, and gets an axe to the head. That isnt it though, he is then smushed into the top thing where the escalator's stop and hit the top of the stairwell. From my fear on what would happen if a foot ever got caught when going up an escalator, this was prrtty eye-opening, but laugh out loud funny how low production and chessy it really was. But then again, thats Terror Firmer for you.

[Guest thefrenchargel]

the end of Bride of Chucky, aka Bride of Sucky, when what's his name gets nailed by the semi. The classic Sleeping bag death ranks up there too.

[Guest areacode212]

This isn't a movie, but the scene from that episode of Buffy where the Judge gets killed in the mall was pretty funny. "What's that do?"

[Guest DrEvil]

1.) Mustafa's very slow death in the original Austin Powers.

I don't think Mustafa actually died, he was just hurt really, really badly.

 

 

A couple that I found funny just because of a huge buildup to a quick death (can't remember character names).

 

The Shining (the black guy) - gets a psychic message from across the country, runs to the airport, hops on a plane, gets a car, heads up to the mansion, gets killed practically coming through the door. A cross country trip to come and save a family and he's killed right away, it just amused me.

 

 

Blade (comic relief vampire who had his hand cut off) - gets his ass kicked throughout the entire movie, but just won't die. Then in the finale says "Alright Blade this is it, I'm gonna get you now" and proceeds to run straight into a line to get his head cut off. I just figured that a guy that was so hard to kill throughout the movie should have had a better death.

[Guest Gendo]

Some of my favorites come from Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

 

When Hatchet Harry and Barry the Baptist get killed at the end by Gary and Lenny.

 

Also when Plank, Dog, and John face off against Rory and his group.
