Reservoir Dogs: the fate of Tarantino's character. Spoilers.

What did the character played by Tarantino die of in Reservoir Dogs? As far as I can recall we see him driving a getaway car, then the car gets involved in very minor fender bender and he bangs his head on the stering wheel and he starts bitching about getting blood in his eyes. Then 10 seconds later his two compatriots leave him dead slouched over the wheel. But he never got shot AFAIK, so what did he actually die of? Previous bullet wound? Head injuries were worse than they looked? Embarassment at apperaing in his own movie?

Pretty sure he was already bleeding before the accident, as in, he was shot in the head and bled out while Mr White was massacring the cops in the squad car.

Please, this NEVER stopped the Q 'tino.

Embarrasing yes, but at least he has the restraint to not do a Woody Allen and include a make out scene with a hot starlet in each film.

Personally, my favorite Tarantino cameo was in Kill Bill:

At the end of the resteraunt fight in Kill Bill 1, when Uma is yelling at the hordes of dead or injured gangsters to bugger off, Tarantino is apparently one of the dead bodies.

Didn’t the other driver (not a cop, just some random person) just pull out a gun and shoot him – more or less a random road rage event?

Or am I confusing my Dogs?

That was Tim Roth, who was shot by a woman who’s car they were hijacking.

Oops,sorry, haven’t seen the flick in a long time.
