10 Most Brutal Deaths In James Bond Films

There's one thing that you can guarantee when you watch a James Bond film: there are going to be fewer people still enjoying life than there were at the start. You also know that beyond Bond himself, nobody is guaranteed to make it through to the end, a fact that was proved in Skyfall.

Sometimes your death in a Bond film can be nice and simple, a quick bullet to the brain or a nice explosion, meaning that you'll probably never feel a thing. However some deaths are less pleasant, usually a result of the eccentricities of the killer. Some Bond villains have been psychotic and enjoy killing, some are just creative and even Bond himself has been known to display a spark of creativity while dispatching a villain.

So here are ten less-than-pleasant deaths from the Bond franchise. Naturally there are spoilers here but some of them date back to 1964, so I think you'll be safe.
