The gory result of properly-aimed More Dakka. When someone or something needs to be killed Deader than Dead, and their death needs to be particularly brutal (or in some cases, well-deserved), sometimes this problem will be solved by a handful of attackers emptying their guns into the target — in some cases involving larger guns, they may even be shot to pieces. This trope is usually about quantity, not quality, so in the event that only one person is around to do the job, expect to see them wielding handguns or a machine gun. However, shotguns and the like are often used for dramatic effect. Expect the victim to flail and twitch dramatically (or hilariously) with each new wound. The amount of blood shown is directly dependent on the work's rating or amount of Narm needed. Sometimes, the shooter would continue firing at the corpse to Make Sure He's Dead. Sister Trope to Double Tap and No-Holds-Barred Beatdown, and a Sub-Trope of There Is No Kill Like Overkill. Compare and contrast with Human Pincushion, which involves arrows and other stabbing weapons, Rasputinian Death, which often involves multiple fatal factors, Double Tap, when a more measured (and well-aimed) version of this is performed (or recommended), Shooting Superman, when this is a No-Sell, and Five Rounds Rapid, which is when Superman does require something a bit bigger than bullets to injure, but the shooters never use anything more powerful than concetrated small arms fire. A character Made of Iron who ends up dying has high odds of it being a particularly prolonged case of this, and probably earning a Dying Moment of Awesome as they keep fighting with a growing number of holes. Can be the result of a Gangland Drive-By. Alpha Strike is when a military unit does this to a single target as opposed to a person. This is a Death Trope, so expect unmarked spoilers! |

Miles Dyson of Terminator 2: Judgment Day is absolutely riddled with police fire while he is accompanying the Connors and the T-800 to Cyberdyne with the intent to blow it up. He holds on just long enough to buy them time to escape and force the cops to pull back by holding a weight over the explosives' detonator. | |

In Dillinger (1973), another movie about the Dillinger gang, this is how Homer Van Meter is killed; he gets into a shootout with locals of a small town, then asks for a doctor after being hit. The locals approach, then back up one step, before unloading on him with so much fire that his body becomes obscured by the gunsmoke and dust being kicked up by bullet impacts. | |

True to its comic strip origins (see above), the 1990 Warren Beatty adaptation of Dick Tracy featured plenty of scenes with copious firepower, culminating in the finale when Big Boy's crew of mobsters attempt to break out of being cornered in a nightclub only to be exterminated by withering police Thompson gun fire. We see Tracy alone fire 97 rounds from a 50-round drum magazine. |

The Simpsons: "Saturdays Of Thunder": At a video store, Homer –- wanting to rent a video to watch with the kids, in an effort to become a better father -– watches the movie McBain on the overhead video monitors. The scene playing at the time is the title character enjoying a drink with his one-time mentor, Special Agent Dexter Skoey. In an attempt to ambush McBain, Skoey happens to be in the line of gunfire and is shot more than a dozen times by one of Senator Mendoza's mooks. As Skoey lies bleeding to death and gasping last words, the mook makes a clean getaway and McBain swears revenge. "You Only Move Twice": Homer, an employee at a nuclear plant that is actually the front for a worldwide terrorist organization named Globex, run by a man named Hank Scorpio, is asked to tackle a "loafer" at the plant, which Homer does. Homer does not know that the man he took down was James Bont, who was trying to infiltrate and stop Scorpio from a plot to take over the United States by extreme force. Homer walks back to his work station, not seeing Globex guards surround Bont and unload their submachine guns point blank. It can be implied that Bont was blown to bits. "All's Fair In Oven War": The toll booth scene from The Godfather, complete with James Caan reprising his role, is parodied. This time, Cletus and a bunch of Cletus variants gun down Caan ... upset because he was dating Brandine. "That's it! Next time, I fly!" moans Caan as he gasps for his last breath. |

Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans: Orga ends up killed by a half-dozen assault rifle rounds to his chest, courtesy of Nobliss Gordon's henchmen. Before he dies, he's still able to return fire to scare his assailants off, walk a short distance, and give a defiant Final Speech encouraging his subordinates. Nobliss Gordon himself is killed in the epilogue by four handgun rounds fired through a bathroom stall. |

A particularly ridiculous example in Spiral (2021): Near the end of the movie, Marcus Banks is held in a trap with a single shotgun affixed to his arm.

In The Soulmate Timeline this is how Mami handles a Serial Killer magical girl: binding her in ribbons and blasting her with a hundred of her magical guns until she is dead. If that seems a bit extreme, it should be noted it was partially righteous fury (said Serial Killer was trying to kill her and Homura's Soulmate Madoka to kill all three of them which was only stopped by Sayaka and Soulmates are a rule are very concerned when their loved ones' wellbeings are in danger) and sheer pragmatism (she had to absolutely make sure she wouldn't miss since her equilibrium was otherwise shot from blowing out her own eardrums to keep from hearing the Awful Truth about Witches, so she couldn't rely on her usual aim). | |

Late in Plumbers Don't Wear Ties, the male narrator shows up to reclaim his position as narrator from his female replacement (don't ask), and wields a toy gun. He then guns her down, with gunshots appearing all over the screen (often nowhere near the woman's body), taking her down with a burst of gunfire, then continuing to fire at her as she lays on the ground. | |

One parody of this trope can be found in an early fifth-season episode of The Big Bang Theory, when Sheldon "sacrifices" himself for his friends in a game of paintball, with the result being a ludicrously slowed-down shot of multiple paintballs striking him in the chest, each impact echoing. | |

"All's Fair In Oven War": The toll booth scene from The Godfather, complete with James Caan reprising his role, is parodied. This time, Cletus and a bunch of Cletus variants gun down Caan ... upset because he was dating Brandine. "That's it! Next time, I fly!" moans Caan as he gasps for his last breath. | |

On Collateral, we see the beginning of Vincent's Villainous Breakdown during the club attack scene, where he empties about half a pistol magazine into his target before reloading and giving him a Coup de Grâce with the Mozambique Drill (which he had been using with efficiency throughout the film so far). | |

MAD: The head of a firing squad tells one particularly despicable criminal that he's so hated, that he'll be buried where he falls. He then explains that since the family of everyone the criminal wronged will be shooting him (the panel shows out to see an entire crowd of people training their guns on him), that he'll be too full of lead to be buried anywhere else. | |

Public Enemies: The deaths of many of the gangsters, more true to the textbook definition of this Trope being the one of Pretty Boy Floyd (who is shot by Purvis until he falls and stops shooting-most tellingly, in Real Life he was shot repeatedly by two agents and he managed to injure them fatally with his own dying gunfire) and in a slightly more subdued example, the death of Dillinger himself. | |

Played for laughs in the Bounty Hunter class chain in Star Wars: The Old Republic. On Tattooine, the hunter's target is a conman named Tyresius Lokai who, at the end of the chain, reveals that he has an Expendable Clone body so he can fake his own dead. The hunter can "execute" the clone body with a single shot to the head, or, if they're feeling particularly cheesed off at the long chase Tyresius put them through, they can just empty their blaster(s) into the clone at point-blank range. If nothing, it shows Tyresius that you are not putting up with his crap any longer. | |

The "Den" segment of the animated film Heavy Metal has the muscular hero overpower Aard's bodyguards and seize an automatic rifle. Den then demands Aard return Katherine to him: "Bring me the girl, or die." Aard blithely chooses death, so Den fires a burst of six shots into him. Aard merely giggles, and completely heals the bullet holes in his chest in seconds. | |

Boromir's death in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring is the medieval equivalent; he's shot three times by a gigantic Uruk-Hai captain with gigantic arrows from a gigantic bow, even though one would have easily killed him. The differences are played realistically since bullets and arrows mess up their targets differently; the trauma settles in slowly and the arrows don't go clean through him, but the wounds still put Boromir beyond medical help. The captain was planning on topping things off with a headshot, but Aragorn stepped in. | |

After ushering his family to safety, he slowly opens the doors of the barn he's hiding in to face no less than twenty U.S. Marshals. John, fully aware of his fate, has the option of dragging a few of them to hell with him. Regardless, John is riddled with bullets, and it's about as pretty as you'd expect. | |

Death Note: Matt's death: several of Takada's bodyguards unload unto him right after he tells them that it's in their best interest to keep him alive. One bodyguard says later that he was clearly stalling for time. This is how Light would have died if Ryuk hadn't written his name in his notebook to bring the whole tragic affair to a close. Matsuda snaps after Light finally reveals himself as Kira, and when Matsuda shoots Light's pen out his hand to stop him from quickly writing down Near's name, Light tries to use Matsuda's admiration for Light's dead father to goad him into killing everyone else in the room so his death wasn't in vain. Matsuda doesn't fall for it and shoots Light four more times when he tries to write Near's name in his own blood. Ryuk wouldn't have even had the opportunity to write Light's name if the rest of the squad hadn't grabbed Matsuda to keep him from putting his last bullet between Light's eyes. He fires, but the shot misses by mere inches. |

On Last Man Standing, a group of soldiers of the Doyle gang is double-crossed by their hired Mexican police goons and machine-gunned without mercy within their car for a whole minute. John Smith finds the massacre gruesome to watch. Also how the Doyle shooters kill any members of the Strozzi gang that didn't burned to death when Slim's Roadhouse was set on fire — Giorgio getting the worst on-screen example. The first gangster Smith kills is shot seven to nine times with his Guns Akimbo and Blown Across the Room onto the street outside. |

One Piece: Blackbeard's pirates shoot Whitebeard simultaneous to finally kill him, which gave him a total of 562 gunshot wounds. The other parts of his death are getting sharp wounds 267 times, getting hit by cannonballs 46 times, a few laser shots, getting frozen mid-battle, and having half his face melted off, on top on being ill and old. It's heavily implied that if all of this had been done to Whitebeard in his prime some 30 years ago, it wouldn't have been enough to kill him. | |

Subverted, as the robot then gets up and thanks the Donbot for being so merciful. The first part of "Into The Wild Green Yonder" ends with Bender and the Robot Don's wife (with whom Bender has been having affair) being forced to dig shallow graves for themselves before being riddled with bullets for a ridiculously long time. As with the "Bender Gets Made" example, it's subverted, as both Bender and Fanny are perfectly fine afterwards. |

A Saturday Night Live sketch on the episode where Jeremy Renner guest-hosted (involving a three-way Mexican Standoff that went on for way too long (as in several days)) one of the stand-offers calls it quits at the ending of the sketch, only to get shot repeatedly by the other two. And a few more times as they leave, for good measure. Also Played for Laughs in their popular "Dear Sister" digital short that spoofed the second season finale of The O.C.. In the short, the eponymous (and unnamed) sister played by Kristen Wiig ends up being shot seventeen times by characters played by Andy Samberg, Bill Hader (who plays her brother, Keith) and Shia LaBeouf, all set to Imogen Heap's "Hide and Seek". |

Unfortunately for him they're now adult gangsters who shoot Nokes multiple times in the arms and legs before the Coup de Grâce. However in the book this is inverted, with Nokes killed immediately by a Boom, Headshot! and the further shots just being the 'signature' of their gangland hits. | |

Blake's 7: The Bolivian Army Ending of the series has many characters shot repeatedly, the most graphic of them all being that of Roj Blake himself. Gareth Edwards wanted Blake to end up Deader than Dead in order to get out of playing him again (after a long while of him being Put on a Bus), and the special effects crew coordinated with him to deliver the most blood-splatteringly brutal shooting scene that the censors would let them get away with. | |

The mobster villains in Dick Tracy often ended up riddled (with neat round bloodless holes) by tommy gun fire. Although tame by modern standards, it was sometimes criticized as overly violent for a comic strip. Naturally, this effect was spoofed in the "Fearless Fosdick" comic-within-the-comic of Li'l Abner. |

About two dozen Chitauri do this to the Hulk near the end of The Avengers, nailing him with countless lasers. It makes him mad, but it's the first thing in the film aside from Thor that actually slows him down. | |

The Wild Bunch: At Agua Verde, after Mapache executes their friend Angel right in front of them, Pike's gang responds by gunning down the general on the spot, alongside with his German military advisors. A bloody gunfight ensues between Pike's gang and the Agua Verde garrison, made even more destructive by the Gatling gun emplacement inside the compound that the outlaws use to cut down Mapache's men. They are eventually overwhelmed by sheer numbers and gunned dead by the soldiers. | |

In the Heat of the Night: In the Season 2 finale "Missing," a police officer is sent undercover to Sparta to investigate the deaths of several civil rights leaders by a white supremacist group. The officer, Tom Dugan (played by Joe Don Baker, who temporarily replaced series star Carroll O'Connor during the latter's absence) is lured to a secluded area on a false tip that he will find the main suspect there. The last vision of life Dugan sees is two men in pig masks, who proceed to shoot the officer more than 20 times before the scene abruptly ends; it is strongly implied he is shot dozens of more times after the cut-to-black. | |

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: The death of the second season's Big Bad Kazudo Goda is performed by The Major and Batou unloading two Squad Automatic Weapons onto him at point-blank range until he's falling to pieces and his head explodes. With most of the capable fighting in the franchise being cyborgs or using some type of armor, such methods are often used to make damn sure they're dead. | |

The wounded anti-government terrorist who tried to escort Takashi from the government at the beginning of AKIRA is viciously swiss-cheesed by the militaristic riot police, taking so much concentrated fire that bloody chunks of flesh can even be seen flying off his corpse. If the previous scenes weren't enough to clinch that this is not for kids, this definitely is. | |

Home Alone: A Running Gag throughout the first two movies of the series is Kevin watching gangster films ("Angels with Filthy Souls" and "Angels with Even Filthier Souls"), both of which have a gangster called Johnny that kills someone (another gangster that is asking him for money in the first one, a two-timing girlfriend on the second one) by shooting them with a Tommy Gun for a minute straight (the girlfriend gets it worse — Johnny shoots her, then gives her a Bond One-Liner, then shoots her again, says a second Bond One-Liner, and shoots off one last round, probably having emptied the Tommy Gun's entire ammo drum on her). Kevin makes use of these scenes to scare someone later in the film. | |

The village shootout from The Expendables 2 have Barney and his team taking down all enemies until one last, lonely mook ends up in a clearing, in time for Barney, Toll Road, Caesar, Jensen and Maggie to empty all their bullets on said mook. If the bullets doesn't kill him, the metal poisoning probably will. | |

Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt has an episode that chronicles the origin of Garterbelt, where he started out as a cocaine kingpin. Rival dealers and his own flunkies burst into his office one day, firing a torrent of bullets at him. Though not explicitly shown, it's implied from his half-disintegrated chair that Garterbelt fared no better. | |

The Firefly episode "War Stories." Jayne, Wash, and Zoë watch Mal struggle with his torturer, but after he assures them that this is not something he has to do himself, the three respond by, as the script puts it, "filling the Torturer with as many holes as standards and practices will allow." | |

Bonnie and Clyde: The titular Outlaw Couple buys it this way at the hands of a police ambush; the two are shot more than 100 times each as the shootout lasts 25 seconds. Even an apple Clyde was eating (when the shootout began) appears to be blown apart as he tries to make his escape. Various remakes are similar to the 1967 original -– number of shots, the bodies violently flailing about, etc. -– except that both remain inside the car; the original had Bonnie seated inside the car but falling partially out when she went limp, while Clyde was gunned down while trying to escape and falls in front of the car. |
