Dick Warlock (1940 - )
As a professional stunt performer Dick probably 'died' in place of several other actors, though I don't have any specific examples
Film Deaths[]
- Halloween II (1981) [Michael Myers]: Engulfed in flames when Donald Pleasence lights a lighter in the gas-filed operating room, causing an explosion. He stumbles out of the room before collapsing and dying. (Note: The 1988 sequel, Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, revealed that he survived the explosion, but the filmmakers did originally intend this be an actual death before they decided to bring him back in a sequel, so I'll only list it as an intended death.)
- Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982) [Silver Shamrock Henchman]: Playing a robot, he is destroyed when Tom Atkins impales him through the torso with his fist.
- Firestarter (1984) [Knowles]: Burned to death while running away from Drew Barrymore, along with two other men.
