Deaths in Film

Reno 911! Miami (2007) [Ethan the Drug Lord]: Shot in the chest by Patton Oswalt while Paul is talking to the police in his bedroom. (Played for comic effect.)

Role Models (2008) [Danny Donahue]: Stabbed in the chest by Ken Jeong during a live-action role-playing game; he survives the movie in reality. (It's debatable whether this counts, but since it's been suggested, I'll regard it in the same vein as film-within-the-film "acted" deaths.)

Year One (2009) [Abel]: Beaten to death with a rock by his brother (David Cross), as Jack Black and Michael Cera look on in shock. (Played for comic effect.)

Sausage Party (2016; animated) [Darren]: Killed in an explosion, along with Douche (voiced by Nick Kroll), after being propelled into the air on a cart full of propane tanks set off by food voiced by Edward Norton and David Krumholtz.
Mute (2018) [Cactus Bill]: Stabbed in the throat with his own knife during a struggle with Alexander Skarsgard. He bleeds to death shortly after being found by Justin Theroux who refuses to take Paul to a hospital before leaving him to died.

Robot Chicken: Book of Corrine (2006; animated) [Jasper the Douchebag Ghost]: Provides the voice of a ghost, having died some time before his appearance. (Thanks to Tommy)

Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp; Electro/City (2015) [Andy Fleckner]: In the play-within-the-show, his character is executed by the electric chair; he survives the episode in reality.
