"Goonies was my first exposure to "Rube Goldberg-like" mechanical constructions and ever since then I've had a fascination with them.
I'm a little surprised that nobody here has yet mentioned the Final Destination series.Whatever one might think about the movies themselves (personally, I quite like them) there is no denying that the hugely complicated and elaborate (yet simultaneously entertaining, clever and horrifying) death scenes are heavily influenced by Rube Goldberg."
