10 Terrifying Horror Movie Deaths You Don't Remember

1. Daniel Burlingame - Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings

Green Inferno
20th Century Studios

While some may have forgotten all about this particular death, others may not have even seen it due to having long checked out of the Wrong Turn franchise by the time of 2011's Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings.

A prequel effort, Bloody Beginnings takes things back to 1974 as the cannibalistic Hilliker Brothers escape from a mental asylum, before the picture then skips forward to a 2003 setting that serves as a lead-in to the first Wrong Turn film. Much like the other Wrong Turn movies, this feature centres on a group of young adults who run afoul of Three Finger, Saw Tooth and One Eye.

In amongst the victims of the day here, there's Daniel, as played by Dean Armstrong.

As Daniel and his pals are forced to seek refuse in the same asylum that had previously held the Hillikers, he himself ends up attacked and tied up in the kitchen of this locale by the film's trio of villains. In a extremely chilling sequence, Three Finger, Saw Tooth and One Eye turn Daniel into a fondue of sorts. As in, this helpless victim has pieces of his flesh carved out, placed on skewers, and dipped in gooey sauce by the inbred, human-eating family.
