John Wayne died in 8 films for definite, and a further two, depending on how you want to look at it.

"Central Airport"
"Reap the Wild Wind"
"The Fighting Seabees"
"Wake of the Red Witch"
"The Sands of Iwo Jima"
"The Alamo"
"The Cowboys"
"The Shootist"

He was already dead at the start of "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance", and most of the film is a flashback to when he was alive. It is just stated that he died, but there is no actual death scene.

In "The Sea Chase" it is left to the audience to decide whether or not he died. The romantic among us like to think that he and Lana Turner were able to escape from the sinking ship at the end of the film, but it is not made clear.

Answer
In the Shootist he died in a gun fight in stead of dieing of cancer.

in ' The Cowboys' he was shot in the back by Bruce Dern.
He played Davy Crocket in 'The Alamo' so he must have died in that one.
'The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance' was told in flash back from the funeral of his character.
He was shot by a sniper at the end of 'Sands of Iwo Jima'.

Wake of the Red Witch - He drowns when the sunken ship he is trying to salvage shifts and drops further into the ocean, carrying him with it.
The Fighting Seabees - He is shot by a sniper as he attempts to dismount from a bulldozer loaded with TNT aimed at a fuel depot.
Reap the Wild Wind - He is trapped inside the wreck of a sunken ship after a fight with a giant squid and drowns.
