Most Emotionally Gripping Movie Death Scenes

[Jive Ass]

I'll start with the most terrific of them all:



EDIT: My contribution was a joke. Had no clue this would take off!

Likely my true favorite:

Bruce Willis killing Jack Black in The Jackal. It's my favorite scene in any movie because I hate Jack Black more than Scott *****.

Heath Ledger's death in The Patriot was pretty emotionally gripping, especially since he died too soon.

This one also quite compelling...

Man it's fun to be on an Internet message board with actual old people who remember shit like that. I watched Prophecy and Legacy after school on Channel Z - Independence cable, pre-HBO days. Remember Phantasm?

I totally remember channel Z, saw Halloween for the first time as a young lad on that station.

They used to play softcore pornos like Valentino, Jokes My Folks Never Told Me, and 2069 a Sex Odyssey in the afternoon. I was exposed to way too much way too early from that station.

Check out the review on IMDB:

I will always have a soft spot in my heart for this movie......And a hard spot somewhere else. I haven't seen this movie since i was quite young, maybe 12 or 13, who knows. But what i do know is this is the movie that taught me how to masturbate. I kid you not. I have no idea if it is any good by any real standards of today, but for me, back then, it was everything.

The only reason i feel comfortable writing this is because i'm sure no one will ever get around to reading it. I mean, really, who is going to look up this movie these days?

I just discovered that i have not yet used up the ten line minimum for the amount of length i most take up in a review. i had no idea there was such a minimum length, but there i go, like a student trying to fill up a page in a journal, my ten lines. thank you very much

I remember all those movies, but I doubt any of them hold up as well in real life as they do in my memories of them. I still remember having the issue of Fangoria with the big mutant Prophecy bear. Phantasm was awesome - I know Reggie Bannister and he claims they're working on a big budget remake, but he's been saying that for years.

For me, of course, the deaths of Dillon, Apollo Creed, and Chubbs Peterson rate high on the lachrymose scale.

I actually posted this in the "TV Death" thread on accident. Great scene.

I was going to go with Happy Gilmore's dad, but Chubbs works.
