They were smug, evil, or maybe just plain stupid.
Heres our list of the top ten They had it coming movie deaths…
They had it coming.
They had it coming.
They had it coming all along.
So sang the hosiery-clad vixens of smash hit musicalChicago.
Undoubtedly some of the 10 deserved their deaths more than the others.
And for a man with a face like a soggy bollock hes pretty full of himself.
At ease, Sgt Hartman.
So, step forward Dr Frederick Chilton of the Baltimore Hospital for the Criminally Insane.
Unfortunately, we dont actually see Chilton die on screen.
(Dogs, I ask you!)
But, hey, thats okay.
As movie fans weve put up posters of bigger sadists on our bedroom walls.
But crucially, still quite a cool villain.
And then he blows it.
Which, rather obligingly, she does.
Bernie Bernbaum (John Turturro) Millers Crossing
Look in your heart Tommy.
Im praying to you, look in your heart.
You feel for Bernie and want him to embrace the second chance hes been given.
Bernie once more pleads that Tom look in his heart.
Tom retorts with a bullet between the eyes and the line What heart?
Dont worry that youre out of bullets.
Just bludgeon his head to spaghetti sauce with the rifle butt.
What are you doing?!
Dont give him two ineffectual taps on the back.Smash his skull in!!
Im sure thatll work outjustfine.
Ah, there now you see?
Okay, okay, get another car if you must, butdo it quickly!
What are you doing?
Dont dilly-dally looking at videos of all the other people hes murdered.
Just get out of there now!
And before you get into that car to make your escape,check the back seat!
The killer is always in the back seat!
Erm, Liz, you havent checked the back seat.
Oh, I give up.
Carlo, you recall, had just given Sonnys sister another beating, making Sonny very angry indeed.
Badda, as they say, bing!
Carter Burke (Paul Reiser) Aliens
Oh, Carter Burke, you spineless corporate gimp.
There are a number of things that irk about Burke.
Theres the way he sits astride a chair and wears those suits with the stupid turned up collar.
(Yes, I know its supposed to be futuristic, but he still looks like a tit).
First he sends the colonists on LV-426 to their doom with orders to investigate the abandoned alien spacecraft.
All to make a dollar, whatever the cost in human life.
He probably likes Dire Straits and drinks white wine spritzers as well.
Namely, the crime of bad acting.
However,Lethal Weapon 2shes just bloody annoying.
Everything about her grates.
Well, either that or theyd just watched her inAbsolute Beginners.
