20 Last Words from Tarantino Movies
17 January 2013

As his newest offering Django Unchained proves, there's no doubt that Quentin Tarantino is not afraid to have the odd smattering of violence and death in his movies. Actually, let's be honest, he really does like doing it - and, to be fair, he is very good at it.

So much so, that we have collated 20, ahem, killer final lines from characters who are imminently to meet their maker in a variety of gruesome manners.

Have we missed any good ones? Let us know in the comments below.
