I mean he basically is a bloodborne boss, idk if that was intentional or just coincidental. But his sickles are a trick weapon.

In the movie the melody is 8 measures/beats long Except in the final fight. When death makes the ring of fire it lasts for 9 beats showing that death is truly there to take puss' 9th life Edit: just to clarify it's 9 measures from the fire ring to the time death starts talking. The note itself holds for a little longer as someone pointed this out, but death interrupts the music at exactly 9 measures. Coincidence? I think not

Idk I think this is a stretch, there's no doubt that it's longer when he makes the ring of fire but the last note holds longer than 9 measures so I think it's the same 8 measure sentence but it hangs onto the last note longer. Source: I just studied both scenes

@@ryhi5 the only issue is that death would have to be an undefeatable boss, with the battle simply being a battle of attrition. And honestly, that would be amazing, if they can get the AI to work properly. It needs to actually be terrifying, which means there can’t be any AI screw ups, potential for cheesing, or glitches. And that’s incredibly hard to do and I don’t think a licensed game would have the budget to pull it off. If they did actually do it tho, I feel like the movie’s popularity would make the game into a best seller

It's your enemy. you barely dodge the atack, but he keeps coming, you draw your sword and you fight. 2:05 you hit your enemy, he falls, he's bleeding. But then, you see death on top of the rock, your enemy smiles: "look who's come for you". death descends. You turn to your enemy and say: "it's not after me" 2:20 death is now staring at your enemy. he realises it, and stares back, terrified. 2:35 he gets up with a lot of effort and starts running, desperate, but he's too slow. 2:43 death dashes in his direction agressively. 2:50 death takes his life. You don't wanna look. 3:00 death turns back and slowly moves towards you. Bravely, you say: "take me if you shall, but i'll not run anymore." 3:05 death's getting closer and closer. You're afraid, but you won't run. 3:18 death is right in front of you. You close your eyes. 3:27 death whistles, as it slowly goes away. It's not yet your time.
