If you could pick a death from any horror movie for your own death, which would it be and what movie?

Off the top of my head, CJ's (Michael Kelly) death in the 2004 Dawn of the Dead remake, I'd want to sacrifice myself for others...or or or wait! Or Dillon (Charles S Dutton) from Alien 3, again a sacrifice, I love the way he goads the alien into a fight...really dig that character anyway!

Yikes, how terribly morbid...

Fun!

I think something nice and dramatic, and while having sex. Maybe getting impaled by a spear like in a few of the Friday the 13th flicks... or maybe have my head explode like Scanners.

I agree that I wouldn't want it to be a hollow death, I would prefer it to be FOR something or someone. Dying in vain really sucks!

Hmm...I would want it to be quick, wouldn't want to have to deliberate or suffer for very long.  Maybe in a terrific explosion or blow to the head or a high speed threshing maching...something like that.

bitten by a vampire and allowed to come back.   You didn't say I couldn't come back and I would be technically dead.   Preferably by Bela or Chris Lee, not one who wants to rip my whole throat out.

i would rather die knowing its for someone i love. and it would have to be quick and painless. a chop off of my head would be good.

I would rather die not knowing it's coming.  Because I don't want to mess my drawers!  Nothing like those in the Saw movies or even the Hostel things.  I would rather get dead by a beheading whilst making love or some other quite messy way.

Bitten and ravaged by Gary Oldman's portrayal of Dracula...

God, I'm a weirdo...

a weirdo?  on these forums?  are you kidding? 

between Creepyfreaky's finger poking

and Molly's quest for nudity

and my monkey fetish -- er I mean concern for nature

and don't tell him, but I wonder what necrophilia really means to Zombie Lover

and do you really think Attrage, Lestat, and Cryp are anywhere close to what we would call sane

and don't you think the Czar and Zombiemaster are just a little too ready to move into the woods.  Hell -- one bogus news report and they're around the campfire having a tug-o-war with zombies over who eats you first.

Shit!  and you're weird?

What secrets are you hiding?

Insane?  Me?  i'm insulted sir.  :P

I'm just a single guy who loves horror movies and happens to be looking for a girl who can get the same level of perverse joy out of watching someone get their head and spine ripped out as I do......what?.....stop looking at me like that.......

And, given the choice of ANY subject I wanted for my senior thesis in college in 07, I was the guy who spent 40+ pages talking about women in horror movies since 1960.

I'm not insane.  You understate....I'm delightfully unhinged and spectacularly twisted.  lol.  A friend once told me I was possibly one of the smartest people he knew...and that that was one of the scariest things that ever crossed his mind.  THAT'S me in a nutshell.

OH, and personally, I've always been a fan of Abby's sudden death near the end of Planet Terror.  That or Michael J. Fox's choking. self-sacrificial "death" in The Frighteners.  Either something self-sacrificing or SPECTACULARLY messy.

I'd love to read that thesis -- do you make it available.

I'm considering doing installments.  It's 44 pages.  lol.  double spaced.  Plus, I know I need to reexamine/edit some of it.  I'll find away though.

that would be great.  I read a lengthy article once that sorta traced the history of women in horror -- from screaming victims to scrappin' Weavers.

Mine's similar. *pulls up to remind self*.  I went:  (I went VERY general.  I know theres anomalies, etc. in each decade)

1960s:  Weak Female Protagonists

1970s:  Independent Female Protagonists

1980s:  The "Final Girl" Thrives

1990s:  The Masculine-Feminine

2000s:  Conclusion:  Influences of the Past on Current Films.

(It's actually 43.5 pages, as well as a 4 page works cited and a title page I did with full color movie screenshots of the major movies I focused on.)

blog it in chapters

Well like everyone says being sacrificed for another would be the noble thing to do, I'd have to go with when Price gets absorbed I guess you would call it by the evil of the house after pushing the survivors in house on haunted hill remake. I wonder what that would feel like? But anyways seeing as i'm a guy it'd be after having sex like in stay alive. That guy wearing the pig mask getting absolutely ripped apart and sprayed on the walls, gotta go out with a bang, literally. :)

oh my pig men are scary. I did a search for them on youtube to see what I would come up with and I was disappointed. umm I'll take decapitation....indeed it's a headless horseman's death for me

Dare I ask what disappointed you?  lol

I suppose I'd like to just pass on after killing the guy who killed me (or originated the idea that got me killed) like Brandon Lee's character in The Crow.

If have to go out violently, I'd want to do it doing something like strangling the guy who disemboweled me with my own intestines.  The most analogous scenes from a horror movies (that I've actually seen) that I can think of for this would be the scene in Dog Soldiers where the soldier in the kitchen tries to box the werewolf and, as I believe somebody has already mentioned, the guy who actually tried to fight the alien hand-to-claw in Aliens 3 so Ripley could dump molten metal on them.  I guess I've always wanted a vaguely heroic seeming death like the final battle between Arthur and his son Mordred in Excalibur.

I can bloody well guarantee you that I would have at least tried to put up more of a fight to the hoodlums in House of a Thousand Corpses and The Devil's Rejects (as entertaining as they were, they were nothing but a bunch of thugs) than the average idiot they savaged and murdered.  "Run rabbit run" my ass.

I'm "just a touch" bipolar, so I alternate between wanting to lay down and die and very much NOT going gentle into that good night.  In either scenario, I would relish taking some murderous ass (or even a half dozen if I could manage it) along with me.

It's not exactly a horror movie, but the death scene that has always stayed with me (haunted me even) is Roy Baty's (Rutger Hauer's character) death in Blade Runner in which he saves Harrison Ford's character from falling to his death after chasing him all over the decrepit apartment complex with the intention of ripping his head off (or something equally horrible) for hunting down and killing all of his friends.  The acting and dialogue are pretty hokey throughout that movie, but there was something profound about that final scene (the scenes leading up to it are well worth watching for any horror fan).

Not enough pigmen

Works for me.

Definately the flesh eating bug from Cabin fever. Coz I'd go to my inlaws for dinner and cough blood all over everything and have gooey bits dropping off and shit. Ha Ha. Either that or exploding in the sun like a vampire. I just wanna make a mess!
