Another "ID this movie" thread

A friend of mine was trying to remember a movie over lunch on Friday. She remembers two things about it.

  1. The main actor was someone who died last year and was featured in the 2009 Death Montage during the SAG awards.

  2. At some point in time in the movie, someone was put into a meat grinder.

Any idea what it could be?

Fargo.

Fargo had a wood chipper, not a meat grinder (but still might be what the OP’s friend is thinking of, of course)

Hmm…

I don’t feel that good about these answers, but maybe they’ll inspire someone else to think of the right one …

Delicatessen or Eating Raoul

Any idea when the movie was made? Recent movie? Older movie? Country of origin?

Yep, because Harve Presnell (Jean Lundegard’s father) died in 2009 – so maybe that’s it.

This is almost certainly not it, but, just to add to the list. . .

Robert Ginty died last year. He was in the 1980 movie “The Exterminator,” which featured a meat-grinding scene.

Wow. I remember watching him on Baa Baa Black Sheep when back in the '70s. Wasn’t he like ‘the kid’ in that show?
