The most disturbing movie death that comes to mind

Definitely Mellish from Saving Private Ryan. I love how it's silent for a few moments then the Germans shoot back through the wall, hitting the other GI in the neck.

One sticks his head out and Mellish drops him but the rifle goes empty so he rushes the last German. It's a scrappy, dirty fight which seems to last FOREVER, while the GI is still laying there bleeding to death. It breaks my heart hearing Mellish calling out for Rieben, who had been busy taking out the 20mm cannon. They're fighting for so long that the GI bleeds out.

Mellish did have the upper hand - he was on top with the knife but the German reversed and disarmed him. Then it was over for Mellish. I like that they showed humanity and that the German didn't take pleasure in stabbing Mellish.

It's actually a very accurate portrayal as well - The Fallschirmjager, German paratroopers actually held the most hand-to-hand combat victories in all of WW2. You can tell by his camouflage he's not regular German infantry.
