10 Awesome Deaths Of Annoying Movie Characters

8. Tatum Riley - Scream

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vXqWgaCIJk Here's one example of an actress playing up to her reputation outside of cinema so well that it transpires right through to her screen character. Rose McGowan courted tabloid headlines throughout the late 90s thanks to her relationship with Marilyn Manson - who can forget that dress? - and of course her stint as essentially replacing Shannen Doherty on Charmed though never really managing to fit in. Her character in Scream, Tatum, is an obnoxiously film-savvy young woman who thinks she's being messed with when Ghostface shows up, assuming him to be one of her friends playing a prank, but oh how wrong she was. When Tatum gets her arm slashed by Ghostface, she realises it's the real deal, and in her desperation, tries to escape through a catflap in the garage door, but Ghostface is a step ahead of her, raising the electric-powered door up, squashing Tatum's head at the top in grotesque fashion. She squirms around as she violently dies, much to the delight of both the killer and the audience.
