Kindly submitted by Lucy

An early role for Hollywood pretty boy Depp, sees him face the most overly exploited horror character of the 20th century, Freddy Krueger.

Glen is in his room watching TV, when he makes the worst and last mistake of his life: falling asleep. Suddenly, Freddy's gloved hand comes out through the mattress and drags Glen underneath, leaving a hole in the bed. A few seconds later, a fountain of blood comes up through the hole and sprays all over the ceiling and walls.

The actual cause of death is uncertain, but it has to be assumed that Freddy's bladed gloves played some part.

To be honest, we don't know what happened in that bed.

I feel dirty after writing that.

How about Temping Fate? He didn't believe in Freddy at all until he got to him.

EDIT: freaky. When I posted this, I got Jack Sparrow icon next to my post. Weird..
