8 Movie Deaths So Gruesome They Had To Happen Off-Screen

5. Death By Oil - Quantum Of Solace

There's not much to recommend about Marc Forster's jumped-up, Bourne-lookalike entry into the Bond franchise, Quantum of Solace - for current Bond Daniel Craig, it's easily the worst. But Quantum of Solace does at the very least have Gemma Arterton's terrifically-monikered love interest (Strawberry Fields, ha ha ha) and her iconic, Goldfinger-homaging death scene. While investigating shadowy criminal organisation Quantum, James Bond is lent assistance by fellow MI6 officer Agent Fields. While together in La Paz, Bond seduces Fields (obviously), only to later discover her blackened body laid lifelessly on their hotel room bed. M's diagnosis? Death by drowning in crude oil. "You might like to tell her your theory about there being no oil - her lungs are full of it", M tells Bond, probably only exacerbating the complex he has as a result of indirectly killing all those Bond girls over the years.
