Actor John Hurt, Who Died Dozens of Times in the Movies, Dies
Actor John Hurt passed away last week at the age of 77. During his long and illustrious career Hurt died over 40 times on screen. Some of his deaths include dying in his sleep as the Elephant Man, being shot in the head in V for Vendetta and, memorably, as the first victim of a chest-burster in the original Alien. When it comes to dying on screen, John Hurt easily out-Sean-Beans Sean Bean. For comparison Sean Bean's characters have died more than 20 times in movies and on television. He's almost halfway to John Hurt's final death score.
In this video, we see all of John Hurt's on-screen deaths UP TO THE YEAR 2012. So it doesn't include when he died on Doctor Who or in Snowpiercer. Also, I have no earthly idea why it's set to "What is Love" by Haddaway.
