Film Deaths[]

  • White Woman (1933) [Connors]: Killed by the natives; his severed head is then thrown through the window.
  • "G" Men (1935) [Gangster Killed at Lodge]: I haven't seen this movie myself, but the IMDB's identification of his character gives away his fate.
  • Hold That Ghost (Oh, Charlie) (1941) [Charlie Smith]: Strangled by a rival gangster in the basement; his body is shown again afterwards when Bud Abbott and Lou Costello discover him. (Thanks to Constantine)
  • The Monster and the Girl (1941) [Sleeper]: Mauled to death by the gorilla (Charles Gemora). Joseph Calleia later shoots Marc's body, not realizing he's already dead.
  • The Shepard of the Hills (1941) [Pete]: Accidentally shot in the chest, when the gun goes off in a struggle with his mother Beulah Bondi; he dies shortly afterwards with Beulah by his bedside.
  • Sundown (1941) [Abdi Hammud]: Shot by George Sanders, Bruce Cabot and Reginald Gardiner who all fire at him as he tries to get away during the natives attack on the British soldiers. (Thanks to Brian)
  • This Gun for Hire (1942) [Tommy, Gates' Chauffeur]: Presumably killed (off-screen) by Alan Ladd; we only see Marc walking into a room, followed shortly afterwards by Alan walking out of the room in Marc's uniform, so his fate is strongly implied.
  • King of Kong Island (1968) [Albert Muller]: Strangled by the Gorilla (Miles Mason).
  • Kill Her Gently (1957) [Connors]: Run down by Griffith Jones who drives at him and leaves him dying: Marc's last act is to fire 2 shots at the departing vehicle, killing Griffith. (Thanks to Brian)
  • The Man with the Golden Gun (1974) [Rodney]: Shot in the head by Christopher Lee at the end of a cat-and-mouse chase through Christopher's 'funhouse' hideout.
  • Marathon Man (1976) [Erhard]: Shot to death, along with Richard Bright, by William Devane, trying to trick Dustin Hoffman he's actually good. (ironically, his death, is also faked earlier in the film by William).
  • Foul Play (1978) [Rupert Stiltskin]: Crushed to death when Chevy Chase pushes a shelf over on him while Marc is chasing Chevy and Goldie Hawn. (Thanks to Robert)
