10 Brutally Violent Movie Deaths That Came Out Of Nowhere
5. Death By Falling Window - Final Destination 2 (2003)
For those seeking ingeniously vicious movie deaths by the load, The Final Destination series is an invaluable source to tap into. It might be a stretch to say that any death in the franchise truly comes out of nowhere, seeing as how each and every film is about the characters getting bumped off one by one, but Tim's (James Kirk) death in Final Destination 2 is still a) completely unpredictable (the randomness of it is something special, even for a Final Destination movie), and b) extraordinarily violent. Having avoided the grim cold touch of Death in what initially seems like a doomed visit to the dentist's, it might appear that teenager Tim has lived to see another day. In reality, he only gets a few more minutes, before he exits the dentist's offices, spies some devious pigeons arrogantly congregating in front of the building and runs after them like a nutcase - it's then when a team of nearby construction workers craning a plate glass window up into the sky accidentally drop the thing onto Tim's regrettably brittle self. Putting it plainly, Tim is destroyed under the weight of this falling object.
Lover of film, writer of words, pretentious beyond belief. Thinks Scorsese and Kubrick are the kings of cinema, but PT Anderson and David Fincher are the dashing young princes. Follow Brogan on twitter if you can take shameless self-promotion: @BroganMorris1
