Film Deaths[]

  • Black Sunday (La Maschera del demonio; The Mask of Satan) (1960) [Dr. Thomas Kruvajan]: Life-force drained when Barbara Steele kisses him in her crypt; he later returns as a vampire, and is finally destroyed when Antonio Pierfederici stabs him in the eye with a wooden stake while Andrea is lying in the grave. (A special-effects dummy was used for the staking scene.)
  • Erik the Conqueror (Gli invasori) (1961) [Sir Rutford]: Shot in the chest and back with multiple arrows by Viking archers just as Andrea is about to throw a spear at George Ardisson; he then falls from the castle wall, and his body is shown lying on the ground afterwards.
  • A Bullet For The General (Quién sabe?(1967) [Don Felipe]: Possibly killed off-screen by Gian Maria Volonte.  Gian says he's going to kill him when they are in Andrea's car, but his death is never shown or confirmed.
