Film Deaths[]
- Land of the Pharaohs (1955) [Princess Nellifer]: Suffocated or starved to death (off-screen) after being entombed alive inside the pyramid; the movie ends with her trapped inside.
- Quest for Love (1971) [Ottilie/Tracy Fletcher]: Playing a dual role as two parallel-universe counterparts, "Ottilie" dies of heart failure in Tom Bell's arms. ("Tracy" survives the movie.)

- Tales from the Crypt (1972) [Joanne Clayton]: Murdered (off-screen) by Oliver MacGreevy (with Oliver wearing a Santa Claus suit). The scene ends as the attack begins, then immediately cuts to Joan standing with the other "tourists" in Ralph Richardson's crypt. (It's revealed at the end that they are all ghosts, and that their stories weren't warnings of the future but accounts of what had already happened to them.)
- Tales that Witness Madness (1973) [Bella Thompson]: Killed (off-screen) by an intelligent, mobile plant.

- Magnum Cop (Poliziotto senza paura; Fatal Charm, Fearless) (1978) [Brigitte]: Shot twice in the lower chest by Alexander Trojan after he knocks out Maurizio Merli; we only see the flash of the gunshot reflected in a picture frame as Maurizio loses consciousness. Her body is shown afterwards when Maurizio wakes up and discovers her lying on the couch. (Nudity alert: Topless)
- The Wild Women of Chastity Gulch (1982) [Annie McCulloch]: Dies of natural causes. (Thanks to Robert)
