100 Things I Learned from DEATH SENTENCE


1) If you have your throat slashed open with a machete, you will able to talk and will not bleed to death for at least an hour.

2) If your son has had his throat cut, and you are the only person around, by all means stand there and scream for help instead of calling an ambulance.

3) If you are apprehended by the police after being struck by a car while fleeing the scene of a double homicide, you will put in a police line up because they can't be sure you were involved.

4) You can follow the gang that killed your son from the courthouse all they way back to their apartment, and they will never notice you are directly behind them.

5) No one will suspect a man in a suit, waiting in a luxury car for hours in the bad side of town.

6) The police will not investigate the murder of a street criminal just released the day before for murder. They will certainly not suspect the father.

7) If you want to teach your criminal son a lesson, sell a *beep* load of guns to the man who's trying to kill him -- but don't tell him where to find him, because you love him.

8) When storming a criminal hideout, it is best to do so through the front door carrying a shotgun with two rounds in it.

9) When you escape from the hospital, the police will be unable to track down a man who is on foot and wearing a hospital gown.

10) They will also not be looking for your car, so feel free to drive it during your quest for revenge.

11) Finally, they won't even show up at your house until after you've safely stumbled home.

12) Female cops are unusually sympathetic.

13) If you get shot in the leg, you can stand on it long enough to kill empty a full clip on two men, walk over to a bench, and sit down.

14) If you are shot in the neck, you will not bleed to death until you stumble home and watch some home movies.

18. Cops believe that getting involved with multiple murder cases will probably just make it worse, so they prefer to let them sort themselves out.

22. Police hold vigilantes as a much higher priority than cop killers.

23. Vigilantes can track down cop killers a lot faster than police detectives can.

reply

25. Kevin Bacon is impossible to hit with a sawn-off shotgun even when you're in the same room as him.

26. Kevin Bacon also posesses the kind of superhuman strength that allows him to pull a rug out from under a grown man with enough force to upend him, using only one arm. He will, however, have trouble winning a fist-fight.

27. Beating beaten with a length of wood and having your head smashed against a car park floor won't affect your ability to bounce back up and fight on three seconds later.

28. Middle-aged actors can out-run much younger men, as long as the younger men appear further down the credits and/or get paid less.

This might be true in movie-land, but it's actually true in real life if you replace the word "Bacon" with "Federline."

32.) Some one having their throat slashed with a machete will live about an hour while someone stabbed in the side will die within seconds.

33.) Cops that are trying to protect your family from a gang of murderers will sit right outside your house in a marked police car with their windows down.

34.) An entire gang trying to kill you, who broke into your house, killed two police officers, and the rest of your family will make sure to shoot you only once in a non vital area.

36.) When figuring out that the man you have just sold guns to is out to kill your son, the best solution is to load a desert eagle and then do nothing with it.

35.) If your wife and one of your sons has been killed and another is lying critically injured in hospital, the best course of action is to embark on a revenge mission that will likely get you killed and leave him orphaned.

49.) After giving a emotional speech to your son who's in a coma about how much you love him and that he just as good as your dead son, shave your head, put on your dead sons jacket en start killing in his name.

50> that camera footage (from the opening montage of happy family times) taken what would probably 6 years apart (judging from the ages of the Hume's kids as they appear in the different clips) will have the same appearance, even though the earlier clips where probably taken with a VHS camcorder (before digital cams were available) and the later ones with a digital camera.

51> Mr Hume's son's hockey game only last 15 seconds and commences with the players already in action - no face-off or national anthem.

After reading them all, 44 is STILL the best. LMAO!

44.a The guard rail on the top level of a concrete parking garage will be made out of one inch pipe with four foot spans between posts that are also made out of one inch pipe and would hold back any moving object coasting at 5 mph.

44.b When you saw the perp kill your son, AND the murdered store employee's family is encouraging you to testify that you saw him kill your son who died feet away from their son, but your lawyer tells you he won't get jail time on your measily eye witnessing in the dark, you must plea bargain as your only option.

44.c Following 44.b; you should believe said lawyer and not find another lawyer even though you have enough money to get the best lawyer on the east coast.

reply

Yep, MGraversen, you are right. 44 is best so far.

This young man was a seriously indecisive, uncertain individual.

And not true to character either, because proper tough guys throw their shot down and nearly break their own neck with the effort, thump their chest and yell "Grrrraaaghhh!" and chuck the glass at their woman.

reply

What about

You can kill kill someone by shooting them behind their head so that the bullet goes through the head, eye and glasses, but somehow not hit the person that the individual is directly talking to

reply

Haha- 42 and 44 are great.

101. If you're browsing through threads of movies you know are highly illogical, especially movies that deal with crime, find some person's post written as if they believe are themselves a gangster, you found a douche bag.

102. If you need time on spell check to make sure your post doesn't look idiotic, you already spackled your stupidity somewhere else in the post.

103. If you're average time posting on movie threads exceeds 5 minutes, you don't have a job. But, in the rare instance you do have a job, you're job is especially terrible.

104. Finally, this movie should teach you to do something with your life, wear a condom and don't get in the predicament of watching your son die.

I'm too exhausted from laughing at this hilarious post to go on with 31. But I swear there are 70 more out there for anyone who has the patience. Good work, posters. Maybe the funniest post I have ever read. So much for the "best movie of all time" sentiment of some other posters. I wonder if Kevin Bacon was method-acting his recent humiliation at being revealed as one of Bernie Madoff's gullible victims. In this case, however, he has only himself to blame.

reply

52) Nowdays, modern criminal gangs are multicultural with white, black and hispanic members.


53) If two cars who looks suspicious are running back and forth in the street you are driving in and you are running low on gass, it's (not) smart to stop at the nearest and most shabbyest gas station.


54) The best restitution drink after playing a hockey match is cold slush from a shabby gas station.



55) be carefull going out in the middle of the street after killing a person in a gas station; a random car which doesn't make a sound and running well over the speed limit could hit you...


56) If you run a long distance with a gang in your heels, and randomly end up in a parking house, you are most likely to find your own car at the top level.

reply

57) Kevin Bacon isn't really dead as I presumed he was.

58) John Goodman isn't dead yet either...who woulda thought?

59) This "Saw" guy should probably be psychologically evaluated.

K-Fed...Who said anything about K-Fed?

reply

60) Smashing a bartenders face into his bar earns his immediate respect. Then it's good to pay him for information.

61) Aisha Tyler, who's usually good and hot, is somehow not hot and gives a quality suck monotone performance.

62) Amazingly, this movie has a decent rating from a decent amount of votes.

63) This movie sucks.

reply

"it's (not) smart to stop at the nearest and most shabbyest gas station."

Exactly! The "Low Fuel" light had just gone off. I can get another 30+ miles out of my Impala after that happens!

reply

Well, some people don't know. Like last December I ran out of money, wasn't going to be paid for a couple of weeks and I was really low on fuel. Then one day the light came on indicating I was running out of fuel and I didn't know how far I could get. Tried looking it up online to no avail, and I live 12 miles from the nearest gas station so I stayed at home. Then my Aunt, as a Christmas gift gave me a few things one being a gas gift card. The bad thing was it was to a Shell gas station and the nearest one was almost 20 miles away. I didn't know if I was going to make it. I did but barely. So, I figured my vehicle has 18-20 miles from when the light comes on.

It's plausible that Bacon's character didn't know especially being in a large city area. Gas stations are everywhere so who would really think of that especially if they mainly stay in the city. I live in the middle of nowhere, there's only one single town in my County, and it's relatively small (the County is huge) though there are about 20 gas stations in town (mainly Sunoco and independent gas stations) so knowing such information would be important.

Just a note: I lived in a city with over a million people for 30 years, and while convenience is a luxury I miss, I have not lived in the middle of nowhere for a long period of time. Two years in the late 1990s and going on 4 years now.

I was going to mention this. I'm watching it right now and I thought, "When did white skinhead gangs start having token black guys in them?"

Looked to see if anyone else posted something similar.

64. When you are 100% fit you can't knock the skin off of a rice pudding, but get shot and shave your head and you will become RAMBO baby.

70) If you and your family are being stalked by a violent, gun-toting gang of thugs, go back to your home rather than a "safehouse", relative's house, hotel, etc.

reply

Totally with you #70(joolzwolf) in this one, when you and your family is threatened by a large group of gang members, the best thing you do is arm yourself with a baseball bat; it does not matter if you have the money to get out of the country asap.
