Terry O'Quinn (1952 - )
Film Deaths[]
- Silver Bullet (1985) [Sheriff Joe Haller]: Bludgeoned to death by Everett McGill with a baseball bat after Everett turns into a werewolf while Terry tries to arrest him.
- The Stepfather (1987) [Jerry Blake]: Shot in the back/chest/shoulder by Shelley Hack, then stabbed in the chest with a knife by Jill Schoelen. (NOTE: although the sequel states he managed to survive his wounds, it's clear they intended this to be an actual death scene)
- Young Guns (1988) [Alexander McSween]: Killed during a shootout in the Battle of Lincoln.
- Pin (1989) [Dr. Frank Linden]: Killed in a car crash along with his wife (Bronwen Mantel) due to either his recklessness or in fault by his life-size anatomically correct medical dummy Pin (it's left to interpretation if Pin somehow caused this accident) (my memory is vague but it’s confirmed/clarified he dies).
- Stepfather II (Stepfather 2: Make Room for Daddy) (1989) [Jerry Blake/Gene F. Clifford]: Stabbed with a hammer claw in the chest by Jonathan Brandis. (NOTE: The 1992 sequel Stepfather 3 revealed that the character, now played by Robert Wightman, had survived his wounds, but it's obvious that this was intended to be a death scene.)
- Stepfather III (1992) [The Stepfather]: Falls into a woodchipper and cut to bits. (His character is revealed to have gotten plastic surgery after Stepfather II so in this movie he’s played by Robert Wightman and I’ll credit the death for both actors.)
- The X-Files: Fight the Future (1998) [Darius Michaud]: Killed in an explosion after he lets a bomb detonate rather than disarm it.
- American Outlaws (2001) [Rollin H. Parker]: Shot by Colin Farrell as he draws a gun whilst standing behind Timothy Dalton whom Colin is holding at gunpoint.
Television Deaths[]
- Millennium: Goodbye to All That (1999) [Peter Watts]: Shot in the head by unknown Millennium Group member.
- Murder in a Small Town (1999; TV movie) [Sidney Lassiter]: Shot in the head (off-camera) by his illegitimate son (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) who was hiding in the backseat of Terry's car; we only see the gun firing.
- The X-Files: Trust No 1 (2002) [Shadow Man]: Killed by exposure to magnetite.
- Lost: The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham (2009) [John Locke]: Strangled to death by Michael Emerson, while Terry is talking to him; Michael then arranges it so that it looks like a suicide by hanging. (Terry's corpse has appeared in numerous flashforward sequences prior to this episode, but this episode shows his actual death.)
- Lost: The End (2010) [John Locke/Man in Black]: The "Man in Black" (in the form of "John Locke") falls to his death after being pushed off a cliff at the end of a struggle with Matthew Fox, after first being shot in the back by Evangeline Lilly. (The "Man in Black's" original form was played by Titus Welliver, so this will be listed on both pages.)
- Falling Skies: On Thin Ice (2013) [Arthur Manchester]: Shot in the chest with a volm weapon by Seychelle Gabriel.
- Castle Rock: Severance (2018) [Dale Lacy]: Commits suicide by tying a rope around a tree then tying the other end around his neck, then speeds his car off of a bluff into the lake hanging himself in the process.
- Hawaii Five-0: Pio ke kukui, po'ele ka hale (2018) [Joe White]: Dies from his injuries after being shot by attackers under Rochelle Aytes’ orders.
- Pieces of Her: Episode 1.2 (2022) [Martin Queller]: Shot to death during a televised debate by Catherine McClements, who commits suicide immediately after.
- The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live: The Last Time (2024) [Johnathan Beale]: Stabbed through the hand and then in the heart by Andrew Lincoln with his own sword, at the conclusion of their fight. When Terry has reanimated as a zombie, he explodes after Andrew and Danai Gurira attach him to a row of grenades.
