20 Most Messed Up Deaths From The Star Trek Movies

2. Lab Rats

In the beginning, mankind created genetically engineered uber-criminals, and saw that it was bad. Genesis was creation, even if it didn't quite work. Khan was destruction and the Fall. In the lab, the bodies came tumbling down.

All creatures great and small, there was an actual rat wandering the corridors of space station Regula I when Kirk, McCoy, and Saavik beamed over. It was the lucky one. After the rodent, the real jump scare. McCoy turned round to come face-to-dangling-bloodied-hands with one of the Regula I personnel, strung up to the ceiling, throat slit. That was the galley chief/cook, according to the script.

Four of his colleagues were then laid out in a row next to him, each having suffered the same diabolical death at the hands of Khan who "went wild" on a murderous rampage for information. Of the named victims in the macabre line were scientists Madison and March (given as such in the end credits). Already cast out of Eden, just outside the Genesis cave below, Jedda was the name of the scientist, now a cloud, mentioned and murdered in the previous entry.
