He was actually skewered through the mouth and the blade came out the back of his head...cool shit.

The Wild Bunch. I'll never forget that one. Must have taken ten minutes.

Poker coffee cup. He had a full house.

[GEEK MODE ON]
No, sigokat's right. The T1000 stabbed the foster father through the mouth as he was drinking a carton of milk, and the carton is stuck on the blade. The scene you're talking about was later in the movie, when a security guard gets stabbed in the eye.

I'll second Kenji's vote for Rutger Hauer in Blade Runner. That may be my favorite death scene in any movie.
More nominations for memorable deaths:
Alec Guinness in the original Star Wars. Kinda freaky when he just disappeared, wasn't it?
Spock in Star Trek II. Okay, they brought him back in the next movie, but I thought it was a great death with a lot of emotion to the scene.
John Hurt in Alien. (I can't believe no one has posted that one yet.)
Quint in Jaws.
Scorpio at the end of Dirty Harry.
Gabriel Byrne in The Usual Suspects.
That's all I can think of for now.

and damnit I shouldnt have read this thread because I havent seen Blade Runner or Sweeny Todd yet ...
I agree...I haven't seen Sweeny Todd yet either so that was ruined a little for me.
Maybe the Queens can edit the original post to include a possible spoilers warning...

If dogs count (which they should) Ken's victims in A Fish Called Wanda. Those scenes were so wrong and funny at the same time. I feel guilty laughing but couldn't help it. And no I'm not anti-dog I'm a dog owner, or is my dog my owner it's confusing sometimes.

He can't be. That would make me wrong. Never happens.

Good choices thus far. I'll add Rutger Hauer pulling the pin on Gene Simmons in Wanted Dead or Alive, the exploding head in Scanners, Norris' chest becoming a mouth in The Thing, and Bruce Dern killing The Duke in a brutal fight in The Cowboys.

I was going to add some deaths from films still in the theater but I decided not to because folks may not have seen them yet. Seems I'm right.
Be careful in reading this thread. You may find out endings to films you haven't yet seen, both old and new.
