Film Deaths[]

  • Battle for the Planet of the Apes (1973) [Virgil]: Dies (off screen) years before the film begins, as most of the film is told in flashback form as John Huston is telling children of the past. (Paul was in heavy ape make up for the role.)
  • Phantom of the Paradise (1974) [Swan]: Stabbed in the chest by William Finley on the Paradise stage, after William destroys Paul's Satanic contract (ending Paul's immortality and horribly disfiguring him in the process). (Thanks to Michael)
  • Baby Driver (2017) [The Butcher]: Shot in the chest by Jamie Foxx during a shootout.
