Death and sleaze by notes
| Indexed | Time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| ~01:00 |
Death by zombie. The first death fails one of the initial ground rules for the Film Death and Sleaze Index: all deaths must be final. If the deceased is seen later in the film reanimated as zombie, as this victim is, their death wasn't permanent and, thus, isn't indexable. | |
| ~04:30 |
Death by zombie, scalpel, throat cut. This is a scene from the film within a film and again violates the "Deaths are final" ruling. Yes, even if a character plays a character who meets their demise in a film's film, you're still not really dead. We're aiming to index "real" deaths, not impermanent simulations. | |
| ~05:50 |
Sleaze by man, man thong. Unlike deaths, it's hard to "fake" sleaze. Even though we're still in the film within a film, a near-naked man with a bulge in his thong is a valid reference. The fact that we're indexing male sleaze is telling: sleaze doesn't have to arouse the watcher, it merely has to have perceivable intent. David DeCoteau films (THE BROTHERHOOD and 1313 series) do nothing for me, but they're clearly beefcaking and, thus, indexable. | |
| ~06:00 |
Sleaze by sex (unfulfilled). Not necrophilia as they're only pretending they're dead. | |
| ~45:00 |
Death by zombie. Victim is later seen reanimated as a zombie. Violates "Deaths are final." | |
| ~49:00 |
Death by zombie, decapitation, axe (insurance). The headless victim is used as a shield against an axe thrown by another zombie. | |
| ~53:30 |
Death by zombie, decapitation. | |
| ~59:00 |
Death by zombie (offscreen). Victim is later seen reanimated as a zombie. Violates "Deaths are final." | |
| ~1:05:00 |
Death by zombie, hand through chest. Victim is later seen reanimated as a zombie. Violates "Deaths are final." | |
| ~1:22:00 |
Death by zombie, throat ripped out. The victim is seen again, still dying, at 1:23:30. |
