==Film Deaths==
*The Weight of Water (2000) [Anethe Christenson]: Hit on the head with an axe by Sarah Polley outside the farmhouse; Sarah then drags her body into the house. Her body is shown afterwards (along with Katrin Cartlidge's) when Anders W. Berthelsen discovers them at the beginning of the movie; the murder itself is finally shown in a flashback towards the end. (There is also a black & white sequence during Sarah's testimony, depicting the murders as being committed by Ciaran Hinds.)
*The Hills Have Eyes (2006) [Lynn]: Shot in the head (off-camera) by Robert Joy after she stabs him in the leg with a screwdriver; she dies shortly after Aaron Standord rushes into the trailer.
*Stag Night (2008) [Brita]: Mortally wound with a spear by one of the "Tunnel rats". She dies in Kip Pardue´s arms.

==Television Deaths==
*Fallen Angels: The Quiet Room (1993) [Jeannie Streeter]: Neck accidentally snapped (off-screen) during a struggle with Bonnie Bedelia in the interrogation room.

*Ray Donovan: The Captain (2014) [Kate McPherson]: Shot in the chest first, then in the head off-camera (to ensure she's dead,even though she looked instantly dead after the chest shot) by Steven Bauer in her living room.
