Quantum Of Solace (2008) boasts one of the most brutal deaths at the hand of James Bond (Daniel Craig).

After tracking would-be assassin Edmund Slate (Neil Jackson) to Haiti, Bond visits Slate’s hotel room only to instantly jump into a fight to the death. Slate meets his end when Bond mercilessly stabs him in the neck (likely in the jugular vein) and his leg (likely in the femoral artery) only to let him bleed out on the floor.

In the wincing end to the fight, Slate’s life slowly exits his body and his eyes stare off into nothing. Bond ensures it happens with a firm grip, but does look away – perhaps to avoid the cruelty or perhaps to check for witnesses. Regardless, the manner of death and pool of blood makes it a gruesome kill by and Bond movie standard.

Bond eventually recovers from the fight and checks Slate’s messages at the front desk and leaves, but not before we see a famous cameo. Sitting and stoically reading the newspaper at the end of the scene is Bond movie producer Michael G. Wilson. 🙂

James Bond (Daniel Craig) can barely watch as he brutally and slowly kills Edmund Slate (Neil Jackson) in Quantum Of Solace (2008)
