Film Deaths[]

  • My Boyfriend's Back (1993) [Chuck Bronski]: Accidentally kills himself by stabbing himself in the brain with the pick end of a fire axe he was trying to kill Andrew Lowery with. Andrew then reluctantly eats part of him (played for dark comedy).
  • The Getaway (1994) [Frank Hansen]: Shot in the side by Michael Madsen while riding in a car with him, then pushed out of the moving car.
  • The Fifteen Minute Hamlet (1995) [Bernardo/Horatio/Laertes]: As Laertes, he is presumably slashed with a poisoned sword in a swordfight with Austin Pendleton. (I haven't seen this short film, but it's a condensed parody of the Shakespeare play.)
  • The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) [Freddie Miles]: Bludgeoned to death with a marble bust by Matt Damon in Matt's hotel room, after Philip discovers Matt impersonating Jude Law. Matt then carries his body out to the car and drives it into the sea.
  • Red Dragon (2002) [Freddy Lounds]: Burned to death when Ralph Fiennes sets him on fire after a long period of torture; we see his flaming body rolling down the street in a wheelchair afterwards.
  • Cold Mountain (2003) [Reverend Veasey]: Shot to death during a battle between the home guard and a group of Union soldiers, while Philip is shackled to Jude Law on the chain gang.
  • Mission Impossible III (2006) [Owen Davian]: Run over by a truck when Tom Cruise places him in its path at the end of a struggle.
  • Before the Devil Knows Your Dead (2007) [Andy Hanson]: Smothered with a pillow by his father Albert Finney, at the end of a struggle in his hospital bed.
  • Synecdoche, New York (2008) [Caden Cotard]: Possibly dies off-screen from old age. The movie ends with his sentence getting cut off by Dianne Wiest saying "die" in a voice over.
  • Mary and Max (2009; animated) [Max Jerry Horowitz]: Dies of unspecified causes (possibly a heart attack due to his morbid obesity). His body is later seen when Mary (voiced by Toni Collette) enters his apartment and finds him dead on his couch.

Television Deaths[]

  • Empire Falls (2005 mini-series) [C.B. Whiting/Charley Mayne]: Commits suicide by shooting himself in the head by his gazebo, several years in the past; he appears as a ghost to Ed Harris throughout the series.
