Film Deaths[]

  • Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) [The Gill Man (on land)]: Shot repeatedly in the back by Antonio Moreno and Nestor Paiva just as It's about to kill Richard Carlson, it then goes back into to water, badly wounded. (Note: the filmmakers did intend this to be the monster's actual death, before the film was popular and then they decided to bring it back for two more films, with Tom Hennesy and Don Megowan, respectively taking over the role of the "gill man on land".) (other note: Ben played the Gill Man while it was on land, while Ricou Browning did it while it was in the water, It'll be counted for both actors).
