Pnub's demise tends to stand out of this otherwise sub-standard horror-comedy. There he is trying to make his escape from his one time mate Anton whose hand is being manipulated by, of course a demonic influence. One mad dash around the house later and Anton has cornered Pnub in the downstairs celler. Ant's struggle over his foreign controlled digits, provides Pnub to make a dash up some stairs. This action provokes Ant's hand to snatch up a Circular saw blade and fling it like a frisbee straight for Pnub's head. As he reaches the top step, the saw blade strikes his neck (slicing clean through it) Pnub stops dead in his tracks a circle of blood forming around his wound and then his head comes off, bouncing down those steps to roll over to Anton. Despite having just been severed from his body, Pnub's head has enough life in it to remark a singular phrase about his current situation; "Cool".

Later on when Pnub comes back from the dead (see Mick) he suffers further trouble with a bullet to the head and then having to reattach his head with the use of a barbecue prong/fork stuck in his stump and then head (held together with some sticky tape)...things never do go right for some people.

Actually, Pnub isn't saying "cool" about his predicament. He's saying to Anton "Everything's going to be cool, Anrton>" over and over as he's running up the stairs. He gets to "Everything's going to be..." when the blade hits him. That's why he says "cool" as his head hits the end of the stairs.
