On December 26, 2004, Southeast Asia was struck by a tsunami that claimed the lives of around 230,000 people. This photo of Deborah Garlick was discovered on the last roll of film she took before she lost her life.
Real corpses were used in the 1982 film Poltergeist. The reason that real skeletons were used in the movie is because it was actually cheaper and more cost-effective than creating and using plastic fake ones.
JoBeth Williams, the actress who falls in the pool with the skeletons, was not made aware that they were real skeletons after she finished shooting the scene.
