10 Times Horror Movies Got Weapons Wrong

10. Microwaves Can't Explode Human Heads - The Last House On The Left

Pretty much the only memorable moment in 2009's pointless remake of The Last House on the Left is the climactic scene in which the villainous Krug (Garret Dillahunt) has his head placed inside a broken microwave which is then turned on, resulting in his noggin exploding like a bloody baked potato.

Except, this doesn't make sense at all. Even if you can buy that the microwave would even turn on with the door open, the sheer number of orifices present in the human skull - nose, mouth, ears - would prevent a microwave from building up sufficient pressure to make a human head forcefully explode.

There's absolutely no question that the microwave would kill Krug, but the outrageously gory fate he was afforded in the movie is a pure exaggeration of what microwaves are actually capable of (sadly.)
