The Japanese film Parasite Eve they have people catching on fire in that as well. It’s pretty cool. The movie is a prequel to the game from Squaresoft.
What about Terminator 1. Great Scene there. Arnold jumps out of a burning truck and the flesh burns to the skull. They usually cut that scene in almost any release I have seen. Also Denethor in Lord of the Rings. You don’t see it, but this guy must have walked about a mile while burning bright. And finally, when talking about Freddy, Groundskeeper Willie as Freddy in that Simpson Halloween special. He had to wait for Mr. Van Houten to finish while burning. Classic…
Awesome list James, the only other one I could think of is the one at the beginning of Zoolander. I know these were all horror related, but you can’t tell me the there weren’t burning bodies in that gas station scene.
@JoaoDuketwoLeal@L0G1CAL Uhm…more like Twisted Sister or Dimmu Borgir.

@metalcommand@JoaoDuketwoLeal@L0G1CAL I know Twisted Sister and Dimmu Borgir have a song with the same name, but is not that one. Is the one by Judas Priest. Ear the both of them, and then the clip from the video and you will see.

@JoaoDuketwoLeal@metalcommand@L0G1CAL Hmm, you’re right! Well, I’m a huge Judas Priest fan but I never listens to the albums without Rob Halford, except for a few songs. With the exception of Jugulator and Demolition, I own all the studio albums
FAKoLL
November 22, 2011 at 12:09 pm
i didn’t know about firestarter so i’m not looking at the last part of the video. now i have something new to watch!
There’s been a new vid almost every day for a while now.. ..its been months… I don’t know how you guys do it! Thanks James and MIke, you guys are awesome.
@PDL Hell yeah! We’ve been spoiled lately. I figured with the AVGN movie in the works, we wouldn’t get much lately, but fans of James have certainly been happy as of late.
How’d you forget Stay Alive? At the end (stop reading if you haven’t seen it) she burns and he confronts his fear of fire. I thought it was an intense scene, especially when Frankie Muniz comes back when they thought he was dead. Also, when’s the next AVGN? It’s been almost 2 months.
@JamesAVGN@Mechanerd1 Hey James, it’s good to see that your doing videos other than AVGN, but I kind of want to see a new “You Know What’s Bullshit”, do you plan on doing one any time soon?

@JamesAVGN Great to hear man, keep up the good work, can’t wait for the movie!
I flipped the hell out when I heard Great Balls of Fire play in his video. To take both of my idols and put them together was awesome. Jerry Lee is cool.
what about the original A Nightmare on Elm Street?
When Freddy is burned as he is chasing Nancy…i think that is regarded as one of the most complex and awesome fire stunts among special effects people
i dont have the sources to back it up, but i definitely have read that in different places….besides that, its awesome anyways…better than the remakes fire stunt
You forgot T2 : judgement day and the most unacceptable :
SILENT HILL !Goddamn ! that cop woman burns alive after roasting only from the heat of the fire, not the flames, huge barbecue ! I’m sorry but this SHOULD be in your top
Got to say – Number 2 was AWESOME. I remember seeing the first one, thinking it was good, but was kinda bored by the second one. Seeing that clip, I have no idea why… that looked great! God knows how those stuntmen survived.
This was fucking gay because of the lame ass fire puns every two seconds, accompanied by all the fire theme music. Let the shit talking on my comment commence.
I dunno.. the list feels a bit incomplete without The Adventures of Ford Fairlane..with Wayne Newton being burned alive by the flick of Andrew Dice Clay’s cig.. BAM!
I thought you were gonna include “The wicker man” for sure, because hey “I heard you like burning men so we put a burning man inside your burning man so you can sacrifice while you sacrifice…”
What an amzing video; James, like usual. I thought you would pick some Godzilla clips. I think about “Terror of Mechagodzilla” when Big G’s dorsal fin is set on fire in the final battle, or in “Godzilla vs. The Thing” where Godzilla’s head is burn for some seconds. But there is also this one from “Crank 2″…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-WcdQNW3NM&feature=relatedThanks again for your generosity and the memories of cinema you share with us.

I have to admit, the fire-themed music and fire puns got old after the first couple times. Otherwise, nice video. This and your “heads exploding” video are fun to watch.
Haha, when i heard that the top 1 was named “firestarter” i was thinking that james would use prodigy-firestarter as music, changed my mind because that James does not listen to such music. But when i heard the music i smiled.
Cannot believe in this whole talk back not a single person pointed out that the single greatest burning scene of all time from Don’t Go In The House was not included. Just the fact that the visual effect itself was so well done puts it over the top, that and half of these clips technically didn’t feature people burning to death.
Man, there were more puns in this video than in Batman & Robin! Of course, these puns were entertaining (for the most part), and B&R’s weren’t.
Thought for sure that Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood and The Ninth Gate should’ve mad the list. Jason bursting into flames thanks to a girl with telekinetic powers and Frank Langella burning up because he tried to invoke the power of Satan! How could you go wrong?
Awesome list James. With the exception of number two, which looks awesome, I’ve seen all those. Puns were great and so was the track list. But honestly, when you said ‘she knows how to fight fire with fire’ I was expecting the Metallica song!!! That was a good sleight of uh…hand? Hehe, keep em coming!!!!
November 22, 2011 at 5:52 am
Shameless and fucking awesome!!! not even halloween in it. got to love james’ vids
November 22, 2011 at 6:03 am

November 22, 2011 at 6:18 am
How about The School Bus scene from “Hobo With A Shotgun”? The guy even had a stereo palying discoinferno!
November 22, 2011 at 3:19 pm
@SampoKaarenmaa
Yes! Crazy scene! That’s the one I was thinking of! James probably never saw it, especially when it’s a low budget movie.
January 26, 2013 at 9:55 am
What James reviews more B movies they anyone. I am pretty sure he has seen Hobo with a Shotgun.
November 22, 2011 at 6:52 am
Man this was one hot list
November 22, 2011 at 7:24 am
The Japanese film Parasite Eve they have people catching on fire in that as well. It’s pretty cool. The movie is a prequel to the game from Squaresoft.
November 22, 2011 at 8:08 am
Then only thing I thought was “Stop, drop and roll, guys.”Great use of music!
November 22, 2011 at 8:35 am
Love the music and the bad (but awesome) puns. Great top ten list James!
November 22, 2011 at 8:58 am

November 22, 2011 at 12:29 pm
Got a bit..Mr. Freeze-y at times with the puns, but a vild list all the same.
November 22, 2011 at 12:34 pm

@Kannebas@metalhuskydamn, i do have the jagulator album since 2 years now, and i didnt listen to it that intensive, so i didnt recognize that song.

I’m anxiously awaiting the day that James gets to direct his own big budget horror film.
November 22, 2011 at 5:02 pm
missed “from dusk till dawn”, the liquor store scene.
November 22, 2011 at 5:05 pm
And the schoolbis scene in the “Hobo with a shotgun”? That’s pretty intense too!

can i have a song list please?
November 22, 2011 at 5:26 pm
what about the original A Nightmare on Elm Street?
When Freddy is burned as he is chasing Nancy…i think that is regarded as one of the most complex and awesome fire stunts among special effects people
i dont have the sources to back it up, but i definitely have read that in different places….besides that, its awesome anyways…better than the remakes fire stunt
November 22, 2011 at 5:33 pm
You forgot T2 : judgement day and the most unacceptable :
SILENT HILL !Goddamn ! that cop woman burns alive after roasting only from the heat of the fire, not the flames, huge barbecue ! I’m sorry but this SHOULD be in your top
November 22, 2011 at 5:35 pm
no parasite eve? Eve bursted all the nurses in the vicinity into flames
November 22, 2011 at 5:38 pm
What about A Bronx Tale great dramatic burning scene!!1
November 22, 2011 at 5:39 pm
Got to say – Number 2 was AWESOME. I remember seeing the first one, thinking it was good, but was kinda bored by the second one. Seeing that clip, I have no idea why… that looked great! God knows how those stuntmen survived.

November 22, 2011 at 5:52 pm
Great video. All the music and puns cracked me up.
I was hoping to see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoYlCkHdNlU from Red Dragon
November 22, 2011 at 5:54 pm
Wow James, you were really ON FIRE today
November 22, 2011 at 5:56 pm
Killer list, James. Keep the (proverbial) flame burning!
A crying shame you didn’t use the song “Die in Fire” by black metal pioneer Bathory, though.
November 22, 2011 at 6:00 pm
The best burn scene ever was at the beginning of “The Road Killers”
November 22, 2011 at 6:03 pm
Another great job. Was surprised not to see the prom scene from Carrie when she locks all the doors and burns that mother down.
November 22, 2011 at 6:08 pm

I was hoping to see the scene in Last of the Mohicans. I am disappoint.
November 22, 2011 at 7:08 pm
But James, Michael Myers didn’t technically burn to “death”, oops!
November 22, 2011 at 7:14 pm
The music really cracked me up
I thought you were gonna include “The wicker man” for sure, because hey “I heard you like burning men so we put a burning man inside your burning man so you can sacrifice while you sacrifice…”

All I could think of through this entire video is “I am the God of Hellfire, and I bring you… Fire!”
November 22, 2011 at 8:40 pm
Thanks to you James, I’m now hooked with Judas Priest’s Burn In Hell. The song fits so well in that burning scene in Maniac Cop 2.

November 22, 2011 at 9:25 pm
YOU MISSED “INTO THE FIRE” BY DOKKEN , HOW CAN YOU MISS THAT ????????
November 22, 2011 at 10:27 pm
Awesome list James. With the exception of number two, which looks awesome, I’ve seen all those. Puns were great and so was the track list. But honestly, when you said ‘she knows how to fight fire with fire’ I was expecting the Metallica song!!! That was a good sleight of uh…hand? Hehe, keep em coming!!!!
