''As much as I love action movies, they're annoying to index for death and sleaze. There's usually very little sleaze and the deaths are bullet after bullet after bullet, often with innumerable foes, extras coming back to die a second and third time (or simply to repeat the same scene), and the only indication of a mortal wound is the jerk of an "I've been hit!". The Wrecking Crew is no different and the pre-credit massacre perfectly establishes the expectations for the rest of the film. This sequence lasts from 03:35 to about 6:25, with these specific fatalities recorded: gun (x2/03:45), gun (x2/03:47), gun (03:48), gun (03:49), gun (x2/03:57), gun (03:59), gun (x2/04:00), gun, headshot (04:00),  gun (x3/04:17), gun (04:26), shotgun (x2/04:47), shotgun, headshot (06:21).''

Death by head trauma.

If the details of a death are revealed throughout the film, we note the timestamp of the earliest appearance but index the entire death as we know it. Even though Emily's death starts out as an apparent offscreen beating (based on the background medical chatter), the final cause is revealed much later as simply a hit on the head during a struggle. Generically, we label that as head trauma.

The Wrecking Crew-2000-Still-00439.png ~10:05 Death by blunt force trauma, beating, bookend.

We had no real idea what was used as a weapon (we noted "wooden block") but it's clarified as a bookend at 1:01:40.
