He didn't play Mohammad, he play a fierce warrior, and I remember he had some kills, I'll check it out.

My bad. I just looked it up and he plays a guy named Hamza.

This is true; He is a badass every now and then.

I know he's in Last Action Hero as well so he might've killed someone but I doubt it. He kills a dog in Revenge (1990) but that doesn't count. :cry:

I don't think he killed anybody in Last Action Hero. I was really looking forward to that movie because of him, but he didn't do anything in it, which was very disappointing, since he's one of my favorites. However, he's been in plenty war and western movies, so he'll probably reach the magic number, especially if his kills in Guns for San Sebastian get tallied.

11 or 12 kills in Lost Command (the questionable kill is in the breakdown below, your input will be appreciated):

-shoots 2 Viet Minh during daytime Dien Bien Phu battle
-shoots 1 Viet Minh during nighttime Dien Bien Phu battle
-shoots terrorist guy in village (shared kill)
-shoots 2 or 3 Algerians in a dugout from a chopper
Questionable Kill: Right before Quinn shoots the dugout we can see three guys in it (one is bearly visible behind another guy). In the exact same shot we see a bunch of dirt thrown into the air by squibs from Quinn's gunshots and two guys are visibly seen falling over. Should it be assumed the third guy got shot or just took cover?
-shoots 1 Algerian out in the open from a chopper
-shoots 4 Algerians during final battle all at once, causing them to fall off cliff (shared kills)

That puts him at 50 or 51.

I would say count it if 3 shots or more were heard.

Yes, if you see them about to go into a room for instance and you hear them get killed off-screen, then you can count it (i.e. Taken "Remember me" scene)

He kills 54 in Guns for San Sebastian (An excellent Western BTW; an 8 out of 10 Stars! However do not expect a Action-oriented Western, it's a Dramatic one but a good one at that. Also worth a look for Bronson fans).

51 + 54 = 105

He gets a page based on 105 Kills Total!
