Stanley Kubrick's Inkwell

Used by arthouse director Stanley Kubrick, this inkwell causes victims to die in the way characters have died in his films.

Origin
Stanley Kubrick (July 26, 1928 – March 7, 1999) was an American film director, screenwriter, producer, cinematographer, and editor who worked predominantly in the United Kingdom. Part of the New Hollywood film-making wave, he is regarded as one of the greatest and most influential directors of all time. His films, typically adaptations of novels or short stories, are noted for their "dazzling" and unique cinematography, attention to detail in the service of realism, and the evocative use of music. Kubrick's films covered a variety of genres, including war, crime, literary adaptations, romance, black comedies, horror, epic and science fiction. Kubrick was also noted for being a demanding perfectionist, using painstaking care with scene staging, camera-work and coordinating extremely closely both with his actors and his off-screen collaborators.

Effect
The inkwell was one of Kubrick's favorites. When ink is poured into it, the one who poured ink into it will die in a way a character died in one of his films.

Known Victims: Case 1 (Codename: Jack)-Hypothermia Case 2 (Codename: Frank)-Decompression Case 3 (Codename: Gomer)-Gunshot Wound Case 4 (Codename: Kong)-Radiation Exposure

The only way to stop the effect is to pour the ink onto a film reel.
