Deal of the Century (1983) [Harold DeVoto]: Commits suicide by shooting himself off-screen shortly after talking to Chevy Chase. The gunshot is heard when Chevy is in his hotel room and when he checks on him, he finds his corpse.

The Hotel New Hampshire (1984) [Freud]: Intentionally sets off a car bomb by striking the hood of the car with his cane, killing both himself and a group of terrorists who were about to blow up a theater in the process.

The Princess Bride (1987) [Vizzini]: Drinks from a poisoned cup during a "battle of wits" with Cary Elwes; he suddenly dies and collapses while laughing over his "victory".

The Double 0 Kid (1992) [Cashpot]: Killed in a helicopter crash, along with Brigitte Nielsen, after Corey Haim redirects Wallace's computer virus into the helicopter controls.

My Favorite Martian (1999) [Coleye]: Is possibly killed (off-screen) after turning into a Martian by being dissected by the scientists who wanted to use his body to study the anatomy of the alien species. (Played for Comic Effect)

The Haunted Mansion (2003) [Ezra]: Appears as a ghost, having died many years before the story begins.

Southland Tales (2007) [Baron von Westphalen]: Killed in an explosion, along with everyone else on the Mega Zeppelin, when Lou Taylor Pucci fires a missile at it.

A Master Builder (2013) [Halvard Solness]: Though not explicitly stated, it is presumed he falls to his death (off-screen) - as is the case in the play on which the film is based - after trying to climb a tall ladder in the attempt to lay a wreath on a spire; he dies from his wounds later on in a hospital bed as his wife (Julie Hagerty) enters the room.
