25 WTF Moments From The Nightmare On Elm Street Films

5. The Looney Tunes Bed Of Spikes - Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0H--IO-ROcI John Doe is the false protagonist of Freddy€™s Dead. Not much is known about John except that he has chronic amnesia and was the last surviving teenager of Springwood that had managed to escape Freddy€™s killings. Realizing that he had been nothing more then a pawn to help Freddy reunite with his daughter, John falls to his death after jumping from a second story window (it makes sense when you watch it) screaming as he lands on a bed of spikes; impaling him. What stands out here is the silliness of it all. Looking at the comedic reaction shot of John as he spots the awaiting spikes, this whole scene is more akin to an adventure of Wile E. Coyote and The Road Runner, rather than one of the final murders committed by a scheming child killing psycho.
