10 Most Messed Up Deaths In Star Trek: Voyager

10. Don't Love What You've Done With The Face — Lieutenant Durst

Just a quick note for all the Vidiians out there: if you do want to impress a Klingon, bring blood wine and gagh, not a skin transplant from the guy you've just murdered, for Pete's sake! Even Michael Myers had the decency to wear a Captain Kirk mask, not William Shatner's actual face! Having only appeared (briefly) in one episode (Cathexis) prior to the grim graft, Lieutenant Durst's time on Voyager was both short and stomach-churning.

Gruesomely fun fact about Faces: the actor who played Durst, Brian Markinson, also played his butcher, Sulan, so no one had to be killed for their flesh in real life! Joking aside, that knowledge does add an extra layer of horror to Markinson's portrayal of the Vidiian chief surgeon. Having to pretend that your own face is now a mask that one of your characters has torn off to wear from another one of your characters is probably not something they teach you at drama school. Well, maybe at RADA.

We also know from the very first appearance of the species in Phage, and then later in Deadlock, that the Vidiians don't seem to care if you're dead or even unconscious before they start their organ extraction process. I'll leave you to consider the grisly implications of that little thought for Lieutenant Durst. From Sulan, we then learnt that Durst's other organs wound up in more than a dozen other Vidiians, which is a spin-off series just waiting to be made!
