(* Summer Movie Body Count includes all movies opening on 1,000 or more screens from May 5 through Sept. 8, 2006. Only confirmed on-screen deaths are scored, and any bloodshed en masse is tallied through logical — though admittedly unscientific — estimation.)
(** Though a city bus hits and kills the character, s/he ultimately survives through well-timed snail mail correspondence from the future. Therefore, s/he is not included in the grand total.)
