Today, we're going to talk about the, "Oh shit!" death. What is that, you ask? The "Oh shit!" death is a death usually characterized by when someone's last words are the name of the death. Oh shit. And, just for fun, why don't we count how many times we say, "oh shit!" at the end of the article? The prize can be whatever you want it to be with your group of friends. I don't care. I'm not physically there to dictate what your little prize is.
Anyway, before I continue with the shit discussion, I must warn you, there are going to be spoiler alerts in this post, so if you hate spoilers, you may want to stop leaving now. Otherwise, the next "Oh shit!" death may be yours. Now let's have some fun and read about this very distinct death scene.
As you've probably already figured, the gallant, "Oh Shit!" death is something that's pretty much only seen in the movie's I've yet to really read it in a book. Though if any of you have seen it in a book, please comment. These moments are usually characterized when a villain thinks he's won and goes crazy, not noticing that the good guy's done something the turn the tables, ultimately killing him. The last words the villain says are, "Oh shit!" and the villain dies.
SPOILER ALERT!!!!
My two favorite ones come from the movies Little Shop of Horrors and The Rundown.
In Little Shop of Horrors, the Audrey II has gotten so huge and so out of control, he doesn't care if he gets caught eating people anymore, and Seymor walks in on him eating his girlfriend. Audrey II reveals himself to be an alien that's quickly reproducing, quickly breaking into song, singing to Seymor that he'll never win because his plant babies will eat all of humanity. Suddenly, Seymor sees power currents and plugs them into Audrey II. The electricity surges through Audrey II, forcing the plant to scream, "OH SHIT!" before exploding into a million pieces.
The Rundown wasn't as explosive. Chrisopher Walken was the villain. He had a couple victory words and walked a couple victory steps before he whispered, "Oh shit!" and fell over, dead. Both entertaining. Both great "oh shit!" deaths.
If you have any more of these deaths, please comment.
As for the "Oh shit" count? If you counted twelve, you win!
Awkward picture of the day!
