    I think Metroid Prime 2's game over screen was the scariest. Lime you actually hear Samus' heart monitor go into overdrive before flatlining and it all goes static.

    Metroid Dread has my favorite death sequence. Like others have pointed out, the lights and effects really add to it, but I think the reason it’s so successful is actually Samus’s pose, particularly her arms. In other death animations, her arms sort of angle to the back, which in my opinion looks a little awkward. In Dread, her arms shoot more outwards, which really sells the feeling of force.

    Nes:Wow, even in zero suit, she just explode into pieces, that's kinda shocking
    The return of Samus:
    This one is kinda crazy how she just desintegrates into thin air, for some reason it feels sadder than usual
    Super Metroid: It's just me... or do they bounce?
    Prime: Imagine if someone really tought their TV turned off during a critical moment in the game
    Prime morphball: never knew about this one, it's a really cool detail
    Fusion:Samus states in the intro of the game that due to the X they could not remove the suit from her alive, this make this one the best one as a game-over screen IMO
    Zero mission:I just noticed her hair tie also desintegrates
    Prime 2: Another really good one, I love the way it just abruptly cuts to "Continue from last save?"
    Pinball: . . . Poetic
    Prime hunters: "Let's do like Primes'es game-over screen but w/o the cool parts"
    Prime hunters morphball: That's the default explotion effect
    Prime 3: Metroid: The only Nintendo franchise allowed to have corpses and blood
    Corruption: This one is also great, the cool animation and a simple but effective game over
    Other M: Can't unheard the "Snake? SNAAAAAAAKE!!!"
    Federation forces: I forgot this existed
    Samus returns: Now we'll never know what Metroid 2 death animation was
    DREAD: This one is the best visually, all the flashing lights and effects do a great job making it really impactful

    Dread's version was less sexualized and much better for it.
    To be clear, I don't have any problem with Samus being a sexual or sexualized character (which she canonically isn't), but if the only expression of it is at the moment she's killed? It's just fucking weird, dude. That sort of things might work in a pulpy horror movie, but not with an ostensible protagonist you're supposed to have sympathy for.
