10 Craziest Things Horror Movie Villains Have Survived

10. Freddy Krueger - A Beating From Jason Voorhees

As final girl Nancy learned all the way back in Wes Craven's original A Nightmare on Elm Street, the best way to beat Freddy Krueger - if only temporarily - is to drag him, kicking and screaming, into our world. It's a tactic Lori Campbell (Monica Keena) and her friends quickly cotton onto in 2003's crossover movie Freddy vs Jason. And what better way to kill the dream demon than by setting him up against someone - or something - even bigger and badder?

Whether childlike dimwit Jason Voorhees might be 'badder' is debatable, but they certainly don't come much bigger. Despite a spirited defense, Freddy doesn't stand a chance against Jason in the real world.

As the pair go at it, Freddy is literally disarmed - Jason lopping off his glove-wielding arm, then stabbing him with it - and is ultimately beheaded by his enemy. The cheeky wink as the end credits roll tell that Freddy survived anyway.
