Scanners - explosive-head-tastic!

Also the ending of A Nightmare On Elm Street when they pull the blow-up doll throw the window, laugh I nearly bought my partner an engagement ring.

Dennis Price after being shot in "The Earth Dies Screaming". As he gently lowers himself to the floor you can almost hear him thinking " If they think that I'm going to throw myself about for the money that they're paying...." [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]

I thought the wrist watch myth refered to the Roman legion extras in Spartacus, they wore moden training shoes as well apparently. And isn't there a scene in Ben Hur where Heston's charriot passes a parked up volkswagon van!!! and so on and on, hey we should start a thread about these filmic urban myths, I personnaly don't believ any of them but they are great fun!!!

How about the opening scene in "The Party" (Peter Sellers, 1968)

His hammy dying scene in the first 3 minutes is a classic!!

The most amusing death scene ever is had in 'Star Wars: A New Hope' when the planet Alderan is blown to pieces by the Death Star.

'Amusing???' I hear you ask.

Well it is if you imagine Jar Jar Binks was on it at the time.

Has anybody mentioned Peter Sellars' death scene in 'Lolita'?
