Suggestions welcome

Life is slowly back to normal-ish after a terrible October. So I have a bit of spare time right now (hopefully for a while).

And mulling over my options (since it seems to be a saturation point for purely movie-based tourneys)...I looked over one of BR's recent suggestions.

And that was for a tournament of the best deaths in a horror movie.

Now, I have been researching into it for awhile. And I have ALMOST enough to start it either - A) Right after the Revenge one, or B) Right now, in parallel to the other one.

Also, other than youtube, are there any other good sites which offer movie clips for the purpose? I d like to put links for all of those listed (like Sam did in his tourney) so that anyone who cant recall the death scene, can refresh their memory.

I know a lot of you will be very excited about this...and just in case I dont miss out on any good ones (classic, modern or recent)...suggestions are welcome.:)

Am into it as we type. 24 clips so far...;)

(Although I can't find the helicopter scene from 28 Weeks Later yet, the "climax"-tic first death from Basic Instinct, and the head punch to the mutant mother of The Hills Have Eyes 2)

I ll find em sooner or later.


So...any good death-suggestions?

Megavideo sometimes has ones you can't find on youtube... but over all it is not as good when it comes to the amount of content.

I'm glad things are looking up to an extent for you and your family..

I'd be happy if you started it now, for sure...

Especially with Gores tournament coming up later on..

Are you setting a limit to how many Friday the 13ths?

I like the toilet scene from pt 5 and the sleeping bag death from pt 7...

Nope, no limits. As long as the death is good, gory and awesome.

There are several good ones in F13 and NOES series. Final Destinations, Saws, Hellraisers...all are loaded with em.

Of course there are really good ones in others too. I am looking down my list (upto 141 now)...and wondering if I didnt miss out on any really good/popular one.


Edit - all 5 mentioned above, are in.;)

Keep em coming though, helps me revise my list too.

The sleeping bag death is my favorite from the Friday the 13th films.
Another is the kid getting squashed by the plate of glass in Final Destination 2. Also there's The Omen when the guy is decapitated. The beginning of Suicide Club when the school girls jump in front of the subway train.

Oh really looking forward to this one by the way. Excellent idea.
