Film Deaths[]

  • Dracula (1979) [Mina Van Helsing]: Bitten on the throat by Frank Langella (off-screen) she dies some time later as a delayed reaction, gasping for breath as Donald Pleasence tries to revive her. She later returns as a vampire and is impaled through the torso when she runs into Laurence Olivier's wooden stake during a struggle (with Laurence and Donald) in a cave. Her body is shown again when Laurence prepares to destroy her once and for all by cutting out her heart. (Note: This version reverses the usual roles of "Lucy" and "Mina" as it's usually "Mina" who survives and "Lucy" who dies).
