"Death by BLANK"
List some deaths that come to mind from watching TV and movies.
IE: Death by Stereo from The Lost Boys
(The board that gave me the idea for this post).
Death by pencil from The Dark Knight and John Wick 2.
shareDeath by carrot from Shoot 'Em Up.
shareYou are my kind of woman, Mina Vladimir. I have that movie in my library. "Smith, I think you are the world's angriest man!" And she, too, is my kind of woman.
shareI should rewatch it, because I wasn't that fond of it the first time I saw it. I just wasn't expecting it to be that ridiculous. I might enjoy it more, now that I know what I'm in for. But you never forget a man killing people with a carrot lol

Death by carrot? How did that work?

Three ways, in the movie my friend Mina cites:
Ram it into his mouth and out the back of his head.
Ram it through his eye and into his cerebral cortex.
When he has crushed all of your fingers and is standing right in front of you, and you are one of the world's foremost gunsmiths, and he is laughing because he knows how much you want to kill him and that none of your fingers can pull the hair trigger of your handgun, as a LEVER to pull the trigger.
This movie defined "over the top," or, as that great philosopher of the Twentieth Century. Mae West, put it, "Too much of a good thing can be wonderful!"
Yuck! That's horrible!

shareBoth of these are from the same scene, with two different corpses, in The Chronicles of Riddick:
Death by anchovy-can opener key.
Death by soup cup.
This next one is from a treatment for a movie that was never made. Years ago, on the Entertainment Weekly message boards on the Pathfinder system, we regulars all collaborated on a movie titled Pathfinder: Connections and Crashes, and which of course starred all of us. (I saved the posts in a Word file that's some 300 pages long!) The plot was a melding of the TV miniseries version of Stephen King's The Stand and the book version of The Lord of the Rings. In one scene that I wrote, the Antagonist, Satan (did you have any doubt?) has intercourse with one of the female character/posters (I had a firm rule that only posters over the age of 18 could be in sex scenes; I am sick, but not evil.) Satan's climax was so powerful that it launched his partner across the room and into a wall, breaking her neck. I called it death by sploogie.

Being killed by a kid seems more ignoble than being killed by an adult.
