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 valid. The fact that we're indexing male sleaze is telling: sleaze doesn't have to arouse the watcher, it merely needs perceivable intent. David DeCoteau films (THE BROTHERHOOD, 1313) do nothing for me, but they're clearly beefcaking and, thus, indexable. | |
| ~06:00 |
Sleaze by sex (unfulfilled). "Unfulfilled" is generally used when a piece of sleaze doesn't "pay out". Sex with an ill-timed interruption or cut, or a shower or striptease without nudity are some common examples. Even though we're seeing two zombies getting frisky, they're still acting in the film within a film, so "sleaze by necrophilia" doesn't apply. | |
| ~45:00 |
Death by zombie. Victim is later seen reanimated as a zombie. Violates "Deaths must be final." | |
| ~49:00 |
Death by zombie, decapitation, axe (insurance). "Insurance" details "after death" inflictions; here, the body 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 must be final." | |
| ~1:05:00 |
Death by zombie, hand through chest. Victim is later seen reanimated as a zombie. Violates "Deaths must be final." | |
| ~1:22:00 |
Death by zombie, throat ripped out. The victim is seen again, still dying, at 1:23:30. |
