Film Deaths[]

Prison (1989) [Burke/Charlie Forsythe]: Playing a dual role from two different time periods; Charlie Forsythe is executed in the electric chair back in 1956 (when Lane Smith and the guards convince or make the executioner pull the switch, despite Charlie possibly being given a stay of execution in light of suppressed evidence), he appears as a ghost or a zombie (played by Kane Hodder in heavy makeup) throughout the film (and presumably returns to the afterlife when Lane dies). Burke survives the film.
Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III (1990) [Eddie 'Tex' Sawyer]: Burned to death when Ken Foree throws a cigarette lighter at him while he's standing in a puddle of gasoline. (There is an alternate ending in which he survives the burning, but is impaled on a spiked trap when Kate Hodge pushes him against it.)
Tripwire (1990) [Hans]: Shot in the back by David Warner, when David tries to shoot Terence Knox and Terence moves Viggo into the line of fire.

A History of Violence (2005) [Tom Stall]: Though his character survives the film, in a deleted scene, he is shot by Ed Harris, after Viggo shoots him in the chest with a shotgun (as Ed's seemingly still alive and laughing). It turns out to be a dream sequence his character has.
