Deader than a doornail

When something is so dead as to not have any life left in it , as not to even be able to be revived .

I don't think I'm gonna be able to get your car started , that battery is deader than a doornail !

dead as a doornail

Goes way past brain death, if your are dead as a doornail prepare to become a 'hotel for worms'.
Dodos perhaps are the only creatures with a similar lack of animation; see dead as the dodo.

On the morticians slab both Qusay and Uday were laid out cold, both dead as a doornail, they looked so peacfull that it made me really happy to see them lying there.
