It’s probably not a big surprise that the death toll is high in the typical Western movie. After all, pretty much all of the main characters are packing heat and eager to send their foes to an early grave. Although violence has always been a key element to Quentin Tarantino films, he really takes things up a notch in 2015’s The Hateful Eight, a story about eight strangers who are trying to survive a huge winter storm together. Spoiler Alert: none of them do.
Who Dies: The whole lot of them!
Who Makes It Out Alive: Not a single one!
Reservoir Dogs
Although Reservoir Dogs didn’t bring out huge audiences to the theaters the way Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill did, it was nonetheless the movie that truly defined him and as a result, tends to be the absolute favorite among his fans. The focus on lengthy dialogue, pop-culture references, and of course lots of dead bodies would ultimately become the trademark of most of his films.
Who Dies: Almost every “Dog” meets his demise, except…
Who Makes It Out Alive: Mr. Pink (Steve Buschemi) survives, but he does end up in a pair of handcuffs.
