LOST Tidbits: Death Montage & Connections to Star Trek Dan Koelsch, May 18, 2010 With ABC’s LOST coming to an end, we’re seeing a lot more fan made videos, artwork, and analysis. Today we got montage of every death scene the show has had, as well as a great analysis of LOST’s connection to the Star Trek franchise, based on actors being in both. Hit the jump to get all the Island goodies. Slashfilm has the video called “LOST:People Who Died” that features all the deaths we’ve seen throughout the show’s run.
