While a crew of astronauts attempt to scan and record a strange formation on Mars, a large cyclone, similar to a sandstorm forms around the structure. The cyclone gets bigger, engulfing the crew and sending debris flying toward the others. One crew member gets a rock smashed into her faceplate, while the others are sucked into the vortex. This is where the fun begins......
We see one of the astronauts being spun so fast in the vortex that he rips apart like a rag doll in a blender. If you watch the scene carefully, you can see his nose and jaw rip off before his visor fills with blood. Could this be the first movie death by Centrifugal force?
SCENE IS AT 3:30
This movie was rated PG by the way, that Brian De Palma can get away with anything.

Mission to Mars - Woody gets Depressurized

Our heroes have to abandon their vessel. Woody, played by Tim Robbins concludes the only hope of a successful rendezvous with the Resupply Module (REMO) is for him to launch himself directly at it using the remainder of his jet pack fuel, but after he attaches the line from the other astronauts at the REMO he is unable to stop himself and floats helplessly away toward the planet. His wife, Terri, wants to go after him, but Woody knows she'll die in the rescue attempt. So he takes off his own helmet and dies of depressurization rather than let her die for him.
but what does dying of Depressurization really mean? What really happened to Woody? Well, once Woody took his helmet off, the air rushed out of his lungs to equalize the pressure effectively causing suffocation. Then the extreme cold (-250F) froze his body solid. Booya! Woody is now a human Popsicle.
