Poll: Deadly Movies, Deathless Climaxes
These movies feature at least two acts of killing or brutal murders (on or off-screen and no natural death, you got the point) which would make any first-time viewer expect a spectacular, violent and (naturally) deadly collision between the two conflicting forces during the climax.
However, all these classic climaxes, as violent and spectacular as they were, didn't need any new death to be emotionally effective, nor to reach cinematic posterity.
Which of these surprisingly deathless climax from a deadly movie is your favorite?
