One of the perks of watching a lot of movies is that you see screenwriters getting more and more creative as time goes on. Writers always try to come up with something that hasn’t been attempted/done before. And nowhere has this been more apparent than in the morbid niche of movie storytelling that is: the death scene.
I must have seen thousands of people meet their maker on the silver screen during my short life on this earth. Explosions, gunshots, you name it. But there are far more creative ways to kill a human –as movies tell us.
So here I wish to have
a little (morbid) quiz. I state ten causes of death and in the spoiler tag
below it is the movie it came from. See how many you get.
Theme: items around the house.
Anything in your house
can kill you. You can trip over toys, stabbed by a fountain pen, put something
metal in your microwave. But there are more creative ways to meet the reaper as
movies tell us.
1. Death by basketball.
2. Death by stair-lift
3. Death by bed.
4. Death by television-set.
5. Death by curling iron.
6. Death by fireplace.
7. Death by mounted dear horns.
8. Death by water pistol.
9. Death by walking rack.
10. Death by meat thermometer .
I think, by now,
you’ll have figured out that there’s a reasonable chance that there's going to
be a Final Destination-death in each and every one of these quizzes. I can't
help myself – those movies are so deliciously silly.
