Almost Heroes: Grady (Mortuary- 2005)

 At long last, another Almost Hero arises.

In Mortuary, we get the tale of a family that moves to live at, well, a Mortuary.

The Son makes friends with a local girl- played by an Actress in her early '30s- and her boyfriend.

As luck would turn out, he's actually her Gay Best Friend, so our Hero has a shot.  Sigh.

The duo end up with him at the Home after Mom gets possessed and evil, leading us into the busy Third Act Climax.
He's with the group- which includes the younger Sister- the whole time, always helping out.

They retreat into a Crypt- because why not?!?- and he's the last one through the entryway, guarding the group's rear.
...and he gets punched through the chest by a zombie and killed.

Sadly, he doesn't say anything like 'We're safe here' or 'This place should be safe,' so I can't double-dip this one for Deep Blue Sea Moments of Cinema too.
Poor guy.
He just wanted to help...and to also smoke pot...and to see a dead body.

Who hasn't been there?

Oh well, he *almost* saved the day.
