How many people did The Terminator kill in the first movie? There's the first Sarah, and the second (implied), there's Sarah's roommate and her awesome boyfriend. There's the gun store owner. There's 10-15 LA Cops Who am I missing?

The lady standing between Sarah and the Terminator when he shoots his Uzi. Sarah's mom offscreen. A truck driver he punches in the heart, believed dead. Maybe the co-driver who he makes jump from a moving semi (debatable) Kyle Reese.

redshirt posted:Yeah how many did he kill in Tech Noir? At least three I can see on screen: a guy in front of Reese near the bar that eats the Terminator's burst full-on, then two ladies that are running out the door with Sarah that take the shots when he tries to mow her down. Sarah has to crawl out from under one of their bodies. I am pretty sure the cop that arrives at the scene has his ribs crushed into paste by the car door and skull bashed in when Terminator commandeers his squad car.

Looking at a list on IMDB: 1? Punk (This must only count the guy who gets his torso punched in. Paxton is merely thrown back and roughed up, memes about him having the EGOT of 80s sci fi deaths notwithstanding) 1 Gun Store Owner 2 Phonebook Sarahs. 2 Matt and Ginger (Pugsley is spared) 3 Tech Noir Patrons 17 Cops (this count is given in T2, onscreen deaths may be a bit shy of this) 1 Sarah's Mother 1? Truck Driver (may have only been incapacitated) Amusingly the list I'm working from explains that he should NOT be credited with Kyle Reese since the mortal injuries that kill him are from Reese's own bomb.

It's easy to forget now, but back in the day, The Terminator was very much a movie cut from the same cloth as Friday the 13th and Halloween. Relentless murder monster mows through everyone until "The Last Girl", like all horror movies. It was T2, and its huge smash summer time box office, that changed the discussion on the series.

yeah absolutely. it had a lot more going on under the hood but at its heart it was just a higher-concept, higher-budget video nasty and you gotta love it for that. the harryhausen chrome skeleton stop motion has so much loving sinister 80's slasher charm

Why do you keep writing ‘gun store owner’ instead of ‘Dick loving Miller’?

Imagine if they had gone a similar route and instead of action movies it was just one Terminator every time and normal humans trying to stop it; trying to bury it in a cave-in, flatten it with a steamroller, rip it apart with magnets, etc.

redshirt posted:Cave Men Versus The Terminator Reminds me of Demolition Man when they call John Spartan a caveman. New direction for the Terminator franchise: in the utopian future a forgotten Terminator wakes up and they bring Sarah forward in time because nobody has any idea how to fight it.

They send a Terminator all the way back to try and reason with God to get him to not make man in the first place. It's 90 minutes of a t-800 sitting in the lotus position asking "why" over and again in response to God's answers.
