Since we're being technical here, let's see....I was a deputy coroner and crime scene investigator. When does death occur? No one really knows. I have been on cases where people died from electrical disturbances in the heart muscle that killed them so quickly they appeared to be wide awake and staring. I had one old fellow who died standing up shaving, slumped against the sink, knees locked, and didnt fall down. I had another guy die on a treadmill, fall and his face came to rest on the still-running mat and not bleed (meaning his heart had stopped and was producing no blood flow). In the movie the man was shot in the torso twice. Generally, a person dies of a gunshot due to loss of blood, which can take 4-5 minutes, depending on the hole. One shot can kill instantly if it's to the head. A shot to the heart could do the same if it disrupts the electrical rhythm of the heart muscle. Even if someone has their head blown off, or decapitated, electrical impulses still run through the body, causing twitching and movement, even though the person is considered "dead" in general terms. Therefore, a person can be "dead", but still show signs of movement.
Enjoy the movie and dont sweat the small stuff.
