10 Horror Movies That Brutally Punish Hobbies

10. Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare - Playing Video Games

When horror hounds talk about how Freddy Krueger became a parody of himself, the prime example forever offered up is 1991's Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare.

By the time of Freddy's Dead, the shark had been jumped, the bloom was well and truly off the rose, and Robert Englund's Krueger was more about winking at the audience than serving up anything genuinely sinister.

One thing that you can always rely on for the Elm Street franchise, though, is that every movie tends to deliver at least one or two unique kills. And for Freddy's Dead, they don't get much more memorable than the demise of Breckin Meyer's Spencer Lewis.

A stoner with a penchant for video games, Spencer's ultimate fate was bizarrely sealed in a video game after he got stoned. Sat on a sofa and high, Meyer's character hallucinates and gets sucked into a TV, where he finds himself in video game where Freddy controls the villain, Spencer's disapproving father.

We get Spencer growing in size, ala Mario, before being confronted by a giant sprite of Krueger, with the real Freddy using a Nintendo Power Glove to kill the video game Spencer. In the real world, Spencer is moved around like a puppet then thrown down a staircase to his death.
