4''Whack Your...'' is a series of online Flash games that began in 2004 with ''[[http://whackyourboss.com/ Whack Your Boss]]'' and has since grown to include several series of installments from different creators that usually share nothing except the core premise: finding ways to "[[{{Understatement}} whack]]" people[[note]]and on one occasion a computer[[/note]] (read: ''kill'' them in [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential extremely sadistic ways]] that are perhaps only slightly above TorturePorn). The games are billed as offering a CatharsisFactor to players with any pent-up anger towards the games' subjects.

39-----
40!!The ''Whack Your...'' games provide examples of:
41
42[[folder:In general]]
43* AllJustADream:
44** Doodie's ''Boss'' and ''Computer''. With ''Boss'', as mentioned below, [[spoiler:it's all in the player's head]]. As for ''Computer'', every time you finish destroying your computer, the scene reset shows that [[spoiler:you're just thinking about it]].
45** All of [=Box10=]'s whack games also reveal that [[spoiler:you're just dreaming in one way or another]].
46* AssholeVictim: Asides from the art style and brutality level, this is what sets [=WhackIt=]'s games apart from the others. Except the neighbor, every single one of the victims[[labelnote:To wit]]A pair of burglars who (unlike the one from ''Thief'') won't hesitate to kill Patrick, a couple of creeps who get way too touchy-feely with Lisa, and if the next game's title is any indication, a freaking serial murderer.[[/labelnote]] totally deserve their bloody fate.
47* BlackComedy: In spades. If you weren't playing to actually purge your angry thoughts, you were playing to get a laugh out of all of the bloody, gory madness.
48* BloodyHilarious: You betcha.
49* CleanupCrew: In some games, one of these guys resets the level after each execution so you can use a different way to kill your victim. For ''Boss'', it's the [[BadassLongcoat Cleaner]]. For ''Neighbor'', it is represented by windshield wipers.
50* ColdBloodedTorture: Some of the more graphic and drawn-out kills can feel like they're bordering on this.
51* DeliberatelyMonochrome: The main color scheme of the series, with exceptions listed below in SplashOfColor.
52* DisproportionateRetribution: The entire point, really. ''Neighbor'' stands out though, since all the neighbor was doing was complaining about Patrick's dog pooping on his lawn.
53* GoryDiscretionShot:
54** In ''Boss'':
55*** Selecting the chair has you forcing your boss into your chair, duct-taping his mouth, and using your belt to tie him up. You then push him down the hallway and then let him fly through the window, but we only hear what's happening to him.
56*** Selecting the wall has you beating up your boss behind said wall, with no indications as to what's happening besides sound effects, your coworkers' horrified reactions, and stuff flying around. He does eventually crash through the wall, very much dead.
57*** Selecting the computer and the fists will cause the player to beat the boss to death with said items just offscreen with only his feet visible.
58** In ''Burglars'', selecting the basement door in the kitchen has Patrick kicking the burglar downstairs and beating him up offscreen.
59** In ''Creeps'', selecting the toilet door has Lisa dragging one of the creeps into the toilet and beats him up and drowns him. At the end, blood and water flows out from the toilet.
60* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe:
61** In ''Ex'', this is a secret kill activated by [[spoiler:clicking the line by the boyfriend's feet]].
62** In ''Boss With Super Powers'', this is what happens if you choose the [[Franchise/StarWars lightsaber]].
63** In ''Neighbor'', selecting the iron hook and the car results in Patrick tying up the neighbor's limbs and then pulls them with the car, ripping him in half.
64* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Starting with the umbrella, the pen, and the ruler in ''Boss'', basically every game has at least one kill that involves impalement.
65* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: A staple of the games.
66* {{Sadist}}: Most of the protagonists (with a few exceptions) seem to enjoy making their victims suffer. Patrick in particular puts his victims through torturous situations. In ''Neighbor'', he can chain his neighbor to a tree where he slowly starves to death. ''Burglars'' has a similar situation where he locks the kitchen burglar in the basement for a month and then proceeds to beat the poor guy up.
67* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: In both of Doodie's ''Boss'' games, the boss will give your character one when he walks in. It's your choice as to whether you actually want to listen (at which you get a short text about how to play). He begins another one at the start of the first game's filing cabinet selection.
68* SlashedThroat: With so many ways to end someone's life, this is bound to happen.
69** In Doodie's ''Boss'', this is possible with the scissors, which results in the boss dying from HighPressureBlood, coating every inch of the wall behind the player character (except the spot that he's standing in front of, wherein he receives the blood instead).
70** The scissors are also an option in ''Teacher'', though the depicted bleeding on the teacher is far more realistic.
71** In ''Thief'', after smashing the wine bottle over the thief's head, the kid then stabs him in the throat with the broken piece.
72** In ''Neighbor'', selecting the garden shears results in this.
73** Happens twice in ''Creeps'' on separate occasions, thanks to Lisa's hidden blade in her heels and a broken martini glass.
74* SoundtrackDissonance:
75** As mentioned below, one of the kills in Doodie's ''Boss'' involve the protagonist stabbing his boss' eyes with a broken vase to the tune of a happy music.
76** The first three whack games by [=Box10=] (''Teacher'', ''Thief'' and ''Boss With Super Powers'') constantly have Scott Joplin's ''The Entertainer'' playing in the background.
77** In ''Creeps'', some smooth jazzy music plays in the background as you kill some creeps in several different ways.
78* SplashOfColor: While the series generally follows a DeliberatelyMonochrome color scheme with only red blood, exceptions have been made.
79** In ''Boss'', intestines and guts are colored, and the boss' face turns blue in one of the ways to whack him.
80** In ''Boss'' and ''Computer'', electric surges are yellow.
81** ''Ex'' has a pile of shoes being lit on fire; both the shoes and the fire are colored. Also, there are three whacks that involve poop and the poop is colored brown (with one poop having pieces of yellow corn in it.)
82** In ''Thief'', electric surges are blue and fire is yellow.
83** In ''Teacher'', the pesticide is colored green when used.
84* WorkplaceHorror: A VillainProtagonist who goes off the deep end and takes their frustrations out on other people after the stress becomes too much. Most of them take place in a mundane job.
85* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: This series runs off of it.
86[[/folder]]
87
88[[folder:''Whack Your Boss'']]
89* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: The most common interpretation is that the titular boss is ''not'' the most caring or benevolent of employers. Considering that the clock method is instigated by another employee rather than the protagonist (who finishes the job), it is clear that many of the people working under the boss want him dead as much as the protagonist does.
90%%* AlasPoorVillain: For the select few with some VideoGameCaringPotential for the boss.
91* AllJustADream:
92** [[spoiler:The game's ending, after you have found all of the ways to kill the boss.]]
93** In an updated version, [[spoiler:the ending shows that the events were merely conceived in the blissful, meditative state that the protagonist returns to after each kill. Whether or not he was sleeping during this is left for the player to decide]].
94* {{Angrish}}: The protagonist when trying to pull off the drawer door.
95* BadassBystander: Clicking the clock will have one of your fellow employees rip it off the wall and nail your boss in the head with it from across the room. After finishing him off with the clock, [[CrossesTheLineTwice you then give the guy two thumbs up.]]
96* BadassLongcoat: The [[CleanupCrew "cleaner"]], who comes to, well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin clean up]] after each kill.
97%%* BigBad: The boss.
98%%** [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation Or you.]]
99* BloodFromTheMouth: After you drown your boss with the water cooler, he'll have a steady flow of blood coming from his mouth.
100* BoomHeadshot:
101** Selecting the ruler gives you the quickest and arguably cleanest way to kill your boss: you take the ruler, send it into the boss's forehead with a flick of the wrist, and go right back to whatever you were doing.
102** If you select the clock, one of your fellow coworkers will actually provide an assist by whipping the clock at the boss's temple, stunning him enough for you to come in and finish him off.
103* BrokenRecord: When you sit down and listen to music after killing your boss, a female voice is heard saying "No when, no want, no worry" on loop with beach ambience in the background.
104* CruelAndUnusualDeath:
105** The boss' pencil has you repeatedly stab him in the back of the neck with it.
106** The computer tower is used to violently cave the boss' skull in.
107** The keyboard is smashed over the boss' head until it breaks apart, at which point you shove it ''down his throat'', and then stomp on his head when he falls over to further force it down.
108** The office chair is used to restrain the boss, at which point he is [[DestinationDefenestration sent flying out of the window down several stories to his demise]].
109** The boss' necktie is pulled over your cubicle wall to hang him, with you pulling so hard that his neck breaks with a SickeningCrunch.
110** The file drawer is used to smash the boss' head to such an extent that you ''wholly decapitate'' him.
111** The water cooler is used to ''drown'' the boss as it is forced down his throat. The copious amounts of BloodFromTheMouth that comes from this implies his mouth or throat was crushed by how violently the cooler was forced down.
112** The ceiling tile. How about using the broken ends of electrical tubes to cause both EyeScream ''and'' ImpromptuTracheotomy? The boss manages to ''survive'' this and spends his last moments running around in a blind panic, before finally crashing into the water cooler.
113** The cubicle wall death. You subject the boss to a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown, [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomping him]] while he's begging not to be hit by you, with a few employees running away for their safety while the cubicle gets trashed up. You then finally kill him by bashing his skull against the cubicle wall several times, before smashing him through it ''really hard''.
114* DestinationDefenestration: One way involves tying your boss to your chair and rolling it until it crashes through a window.
115%%* DisproportionateRetribution: The whole game, really.
116* DissonantSerenity: You will have an oddly calm and relaxed look on your face as you're slamming a filing cabinet drawer on your boss' head to the point of decapitation.
117* TheEveryman: The protagonist, which makes him all the more relatable to players.
118* EyeScream:
119** The broken bottle, which starts with you poking the boss in the eyes with it, and then putting him in a headlock and viciously ramming it into his eyes repeatedly.
120** The ceiling tile, which has the protagonist taking out an electrical tube, smashing it over the boss' head, and shoving the broken ends into his eyes.
121* GolfClubbing: One of the deaths involves beating your boss to a bloody pulp with a putter.
122* GrievousBottleyHarm: The broken bottle death.
123* GuttedLikeAFish: The letter opener death has the protagonist slice the boss's gut open, with his intestines falling out, then finishing him off by stabbing him in the throat.
124* KarmicDeath: Guess who.
125* TheManyDeathsOfYou: 24 for your boss, to be exact.
126** 27 in the Android port.
127* NoNameGiven: Both you and your boss are never given names.
128* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Quite a few deaths work like this, such as the trash can, the coffee cup, and your own fists, but the cubicle wall is an ''incredibly''-vicious SoundOnlyDeath-based version of this.
129* NonIndicativeName: Downplayed. While the cartoon-like animated art style of the game may lead some to interpret the "whack" in the title in a more literal sense, the game's more about finding ways to outright ''kill'' your boss. That being said, "whack" also happens to be a slang term for killing someone.
130* NotQuiteDead: After the protagonist hits the boss with the lamp a few times, he sits down and starts pulling out his music player, but sees the boss twitch. He then crawls over, takes off one of the boss's shoes and socks, puts the lamp over it, and goes to plug it in, electrocuting him.
131* OneHitKill: The ruler, the umbrella, the coat hook, and the scissors.
132* OverdrawnAtTheBloodBank: The scissors death. Once you slit the boss's throat, he spews out so much blood that it completely covers the wall opposite him (except the spot you're standing in front of).
133* SoundtrackDissonance:
134** The broken bottle death, [[EyeScream one of the most gruesome deaths in the game]], is shown while happy, orchestral music plays in the background.
135** The game's ending features happy music playing over two scenes (depends on the version): [[spoiler:either the protagonist spinning around happily holding the boss's decapitated head, or the protagonist in his meditative state recapping all of the different deaths in his head.]]
136* SuddenlyVoiced: The only time we hear the protagonist speak is when he's letting out {{angrish}} when trying to pull off the drawer door.
137* ShoutOut:
138** Using the scissors will result in an eruption of HighPressureBlood from your boss' throat. Given how much more bloody it is in comparison to the rest of the game, it could be a reference to ''Film/{{Sanjuro}}'', with the infamous pump malfunction resulting in a lot more blood than intended. If nothing else, it uses the ''exact same sound effect'' at the moment of the attack.
139** Beating the boss with the suitcase and then stomping on it afterwards uses sound effects from a beating scene in ''Film/{{Goodfellas}}''. The same sound effects also appear in ''Whack Your Ex'' and ''Whack Your Computer''.
140[[/folder]]
141
142[[folder:''Whack Your Ex'']]
143* AllWomenLoveShoes: If you select the stiletto on the girlfriend's side, the boyfriend will remove her shoes, bring a closet full of her shoes, dump them out, pour petrol fluid on them, and light them up. The girlfriend will then throw a fit. This is easily the least violent option in the game.
144* BoomHeadshot: The boyfriend at the end of the car death.
145* ExcrementStatement: Three of them.
146** One has the boyfriend using a poop launcher on his ex-girlfriend.
147** Another has the girlfriend giving the boyfriend a present containing boxing gloves. She then puts them on and starts pounding him like a punching bag before raising her arms in victory. Then she starts beating him while he's down and simultaneously shitting on him.
148** Another one with the girlfriend punching her ex-boyfriend in the gut, taking him to the floor with another punch, then shitting on him.
149* EyeScream: When you select the girl silhouette on the girlfriend's side, [[GirlOnGirlIsHot a girl will appear and start making out with the girlfriend]]. A door then falls down, obscuring the girls from the boyfriend's view. He'll try looking through the keyhole, only for the girlfriend to stab him in the eye.
150* GirlOnGirlIsHot: Selecting the silhouetted girl figure on the girlfriend's side brings up another girl that the girlfriend makes out with, [[MaleGaze much to the boyfriend's satisfaction]].
151* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: The hidden kill. To obtain it, [[spoiler:click the line beneath the boyfriend's feet]].
152* MoodWhiplash: This game's got quite some.
153** The brick. The boyfriend builds a small brick fort around himself, with a small opening where the girlfriend looks in...only to get a rocket launcher to the face, leaving only her feet with bone visible.
154** The blue gift. The girlfriend opens the gift and puts on the boxing gloves inside before using the boyfriend's head as a punching bag. After a quick break, she starts beating him more viciously while simultaneously shitting on him.
155** The airplane. The boyfriend shows the girlfriend an airplane drawing a heart on the sky. Cue RecordNeedleScratch as the airplane quickly crosses out the heart. The boyfriend then pulls out a chainsaw out of nowhere and starts grinding the girlfriend's face.
156** The sneakers. The boyfriend and girlfriend each exchange romantic gestures. When the boyfriend goes for a hug, turns out he's not going for the girlfriend, but for another girl. He then tramples and stomps the girlfriend's head, all while being watched by the other girl. It finishes with the boyfriend and the other girl running to the distance.
157** The chocolate box. The boyfriend presents a chocolate box to the girlfriend. When she opens, a spring-loaded pie smacks her in the face. Funny, until there's a second spring-loaded trap that chops the girlfriend's head off.
158* RidiculouslyFastConstruction: Selecting the brick on the boyfriend's side has him building a small brick fort at an insanely fast pace.
159* WhamLine: In the car death, after an old man drives up in a nice car, whisks away the girl, and drives offscreen only to [[BoomHeadshot shoot the boyfriend in the head]]. [[spoiler:"Dad?"]]
160[[/folder]]
161
162[[folder:''Whack Your Computer'']]
163* LighterAndSofter: This is the only game in the series to have an inanimate object as the whack target, so don't expect any blood, gore or gruesome murder. In addition, all of the violence here is more cartoony and over-the-top than the other games (the protagnist of ''Whack Your Boss'' could cause HighPressureBlood on his boss with just a pair of scissors, yet the ones in this game merely get covered in some ash upon calling in an air strike that destroys half of the building).
164* MadeOfIron: In contrast to the other games, both of the characters here are indestructible. Even numerous explosions which destroy the floor they're on only leave them covered in ash.
165* NoAntagonist: You have to "Whack" an inanimate object like a computer.
166[[/folder]]
167
168[[folder:''Whack Your Boss 2: Fantasy Edition'']]
169* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: One of the kills has the protagonist rip the boss in half vertically [[MindOverMatter without touching him]].
170* OffhandBackhand: One of the kills feature the employee doing this to the boss' skeleton.
171* SatanicArchetype: The Devil makes an appearance in one of the kills [[spoiler:and in the ending.]]
172* {{Unicorn}}: You pull an actual one from your trash bin and [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice impale your boss]] and proceeds to prance around with him.
173[[/folder]]
174
175[[folder:''Don't Whack Your Teacher'']]
176* ChairmanOfTheBrawl: One of the kills has the kid smacking the chair he sits on against the teacher.
177* DestinationDefenestration: One of the kills has the kid distract the teacher with bees and then the latter proceeds to open a window, looking down, and it only takes a guess what happens next...
178* EnfantTerrible: Considering what he's capable of doing to the teacher (and the thief in ''Whack the Thief''), the kid most definitely qualifies.
179* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: The teacher seems to be mean to his student, but when the kid pulls a WoundedGazelleGambit, the first thing he does is to see if he's alright.
180* WoundedGazelleGambit: One of the kills has the kid pretending to hurt his leg. Then when the teacher comes over to check, he grabs the thermos on the table nearby...
181[[/folder]]
182
183[[folder:''Whack the Thief'']]
184* AlasPoorVillain: The victim may be a house burglar and is visibly bothered by the kid when he first sees him, but on several occasions you can see how harmless he is, making his death at the kid's hands unjustly extreme.
185* ShoutOut:
186** Selecting the toolbox will have the kid throw knives at the thief's thighs, in which he will scream like Ace Ventura in ''Film/AceVenturaWhenNatureCalls''.
187** If you select the oil bottle, the kid [[Film/HomeAlone will light up the thief's hat]].
188[[/folder]]
189
190[[folder:''Don't Whack Your Boss With Super Powers'']]
191* MesACrowd: Selecting the [[Franchise/{{Naruto}} headband]] grants you this power.
192* ReferenceOverdosed: The whole thing is a massive ShoutOut fest, given that all of the killing methods are superpowers or fictional gadgets from pop culture. They include:
193** [[ComicBook/XMen Wolverine's claws and Cyclops' goggles]].
194** [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Mjolnir]].
195** [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk A pair of Hulk gloves toy]]. The kill itself is a ShoutOut to ''Film/TheAvengers2012'' where Hulk tosses Loki around.
196** [[ComicBook/SpiderMan Spider-Man's glove]].
197** [[ComicBook/{{Superman}} Superman's cape]]. The resulting collateral damage may or may not be a ShoutOut to ''Film/ManOfSteel''.
198** [[Franchise/{{Naruto}} A Konoha headband]].
199** [[Franchise/DragonBall A 1-star Dragon Ball]].
200** [[Manga/{{Doraemon}} Doraemon's pouch]]. Your weapon is the Small Light, and when you're done, you exit via the Anywhere Door.
201** [[Film/TransformersFilmSeries The Allspark]].
202** [[Franchise/StarWars A lightsaber]]. You get to [[Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack chop your boss' hand]], [[Film/ANewHope force choke him, and disappear a la Obi-Wan]].
203** [[Franchise/{{Godzilla}} A flute]].
204** [[Franchise/MortalKombat Sub-Zero's mask]].
205* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: The boss is just a normal human, which makes the superpowers complete overkill. Probably the best example would be the Franchise/DragonBall one, which causes a truly massive amount of unneeded collateral damage.
206* YourHeadAsplode: The result of a direct hit from the [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Mjolnir]] to a puny Midgardian's head.
207[[/folder]]
208
209[[folder:''Whack the Trump'']]
210* LighterAndSofter: There is no gore in the game and the "kills" tend to be cartoony and non-lethal, akin to ''Computer''.
211* TakeThat: The title should be a clue.
212[[/folder]]
213
214[[folder:''Whack Your Neighbor'']]
215* AngryGuardDog: Patrick apparently has Whiskey trained to maul people to death on command. And given that he bit off the neighbor's hand when he was holding sausage and later tore the third robber's head off in ''Whack the Burglars'', he's ''still'' incredibly vicious even without Patrick.
216* BloodierAndGorier: ''Oh yeah.'' In a series that's already based around violence, this one manages to have killing methods so disturbing that many people who have played it or watched it on Website/YouTube have commented on its excessive gore compared to the other games, which showcased that [=WhackIt's=] games would most definitely be different from Doodie's and [=Box10's=].
217* CruelAndUnusualDeath: The chain death. While some of the other deaths are quick, the chain one has the neighbor tied to a tree and slowly die from starvation.
218* DisproportionateRetribution: Everything that happens to the neighbor is a result of him complaining to Patrick about his dog pooping in the neighbor’s yard.
219* FlippingTheBird: Done by ''God'' of all people to the neighbor before he zaps him.
220* NonHumanSidekick: Patrick's dog Whiskey, who assists in a number of the kills in this game and ''Whack the Burglars''.
221* ShoutOut: Much like in ''Thief'', the brochettes option has the Neighbor let out a scream akin to Ace's from ''Film/AceVenturaWhenNatureCalls''.
222[[/folder]]
223
224[[folder:''Whack the Burglars'']]
225* CherryTapping: Sure, Patrick can dispatch the first burglar in a variety of graphic ways... or he can make a spider crawl out from his chandelier to send the burglar running off into the night [[ScreamsLikeALittleGirl screaming like a little girl]].
226* DistractedByTheSexy: One of the options has Patrick turn his TV to a channel with women twerking, giving a distraction to the burglars before he kills them.
227* HarmlessFreezing: When Patrick freezes the second burglar and then decapitates him, his head is shown to still be alive in the separate ice chunk.
228* NeverMessWithGranny: An option has Patrick call in an elderly woman of unknown relationship to him to beat up the burglars. After that, she asks Patrick if he'd like for her to make a dish of dinner for him, which he approves.
229* PressXToNotDie: Three-item combos (restricted to the first two burglars) require the player to find the third item within a short time; otherwise, one of the burglars will shoot Patrick.
230[[/folder]]
231
232[[folder:''Whack the Creeps'']]
233* ActionGirl: Lisa, the main protagonist.
234* BarBrawl: Not really a "brawl" so much as a series of brutal executions, but the events of the game take place inside a bar in Sweden.
235* BirdsOfAFeather: Lisa certainly shares Patrick's taste for violent DisproportionateRetribution.
236* ButtMonkey: The creep with the big ears suffers more than his friend, who often gets nothing more than a non-lethal beating.
237* BystanderSyndrome: The bartender doesn't seem to mind Lisa beating the crap out of two guys in front of him. More often than not, he'll even offer her a drink.
238* ChairmanOfTheBrawl: Several kills feature Lisa using a bar stool to smack the creeps with.
239* EyeScream:
240** If you select the pencil, Lisa will impale it into one of the creeps' eyes à la Joker from ''Film/TheDarkKnight''.
241** The title screen and loading screen icon is an eyeball in a martini glass.
242* GroinAttack: One of the creeps suffers several of these over the course of the game.
243* LighterAndSofter: Most of the kills are less gory than the previous games, and some of them are arguably non-lethal.
244* OffWithHisHead:
245** Selecting the hat will reveal that it is [[Film/{{Goldfinger}} Oddjob's hat]]. You can guess what happens when Lisa throws it at the creeps.
246** The very last kill is Patrick kicking one of the creeps' head off.
247* OrgasmicCombat: Lisa's groans and noises she makes while offing the creeps (particularly when she squeeks out "yeah!") sound very sexual, something Jacksepticeye pointed out.
248* PervertRevengeMode: The entire premise of the game is a women killing two perverts for hitting on her.
249* ShoutOut: This is a whack game, so expect some.
250** As mentioned above, the pencil is one to ''Film/TheDarkKnight''.
251** The hat is [[Film/{{Goldfinger}} Oddjob's hat]].
252* WrestlerInAllOfUs: The "last call" kill has the bouncer using a tombstone piledriver and a backbreaker on the creeps.
253[[/folder]]
254
255[[folder:''Whack the Serial Killer'']]
256* ActionGirl: Lisa returns as the main protagonist, and she is still lethally creative when it comes to killing her enemies.
257* BearTrap: Among the many nasty implements in the killer's arsenal which Lisa turns on him.
258* ChainsawGood: The killer tries to use the chainsaw on Lisa when she selects it as her weapon, but when Whiskey makes him drop it, he falls on it and becomes HalfTheManHeUsedToBe.
259* ColdBloodedTorture: Some of Lisa's kills, particularly the ones that employ the torture rack or have the killer tied to Lisa's chair, get ugly as hell, the most disturbing of them being [[spoiler:pulling out bits of the killer while he's on the rack, roasting them in the furnace and feeding them to the dog]].
260* GroinAttack: [[spoiler:The killer gets his genitals gnawed on by Whiskey and chopped off by Patrick in the final tag team kill]].
261* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Many of the implements that are in the chamber Lisa is trapped in were most likely used on the killer's previous victims (with the possible exception of the Lament Configuration and the evil toys), so Lisa gets to indulge in a bit of karmic payback.
262* KillItWithFire: Selecting the propane tank has Lisa taking a propane torch to the killer's head. She can also tar and feather the killer and set him on fire.
263* KnightOfCerebus: Compared to previous targets, the serial killer is a genuine threat to Lisa and Patrick, with the opening to the game showing him successfully kidnapping them both, and he can easily make Lisa his next victim if you make the wrong decisions. Lisa's idle animation when searching for weapons shows that she's actually fearing for her life this time around.
264* MuggingTheMonster: The killer thought Lisa was just another victim. Lisa proceeds to prove him wrong big-time.
265* NonHumanSidekick: Whiskey again, who not only helps Lisa escape her bonds in the beginning, but also assists in several of the kills.
266* OffWithHisHead: Several of Lisa's kills (as well as [[spoiler:the final tag-team kill with Patrick]]) have the killer losing his head as a finisher. There's even a guillotine as one of the weapons Lisa can use on him.
267* SerialKiller: Your whack-ee for this game, and much like the burglars, he ''is'' capable of killing you.
268* ShockAndAwe: The electric chair kill.
269* ShoutOut: It wouldn't be a Whack game without some of these:
270** The infamous Lament Configuration from ''Franchise/{{Hellraiser}}'' makes its appearance, with the killer getting the full Pinhead treatment when the puzzle box is solved.
271*** Right after killing the killer, [[Franchise/MortalKombat Pinhead pops up from the bottom of the screen saying "Toasty!"]] (although written as "Oopsy!")
272** The toybox contains not only the killer doll Chucky from ''Franchise/ChildsPlay'', but the four killer puppets from the ''Film/PuppetMaster'' series.
273** [[Franchise/ANightmareOnElmStreet Freddy Krueger's razor-glove]] is among the many weapons Lisa can use to kill the serial killer.
274** The killer's aesthetic and his [[MacheteMayhem weapon of choice]] bring to mind Jason from the early ''Franchise/FridayThe13th'' movies, though the killer is a lot less durable than Jason was.
275** Using the hacksaw has Lisa putting the killer into a situation right out of ''Franchise/{{Saw}}''. There's even a cameo of Billy the puppet on his tricycle.
276** [[spoiler:The final tag-team kill brings to mind several of Tarantino's movies -- the gimp suit and the katana are straight from ''Film/PulpFiction'', while Lisa's vicious axe-kick on the killer brings to mind the scene from ''Film/DeathProof'' where the second set of girls kicks the killer's ass.]]
277* TapOnTheHead: Some of the more involved kills have Lisa having to take a board or a sledgehammer to the killer's head prior to placing him on the implement she wants to use on him.
278* TortureCellar: After subduing Patrick, the killer takes Lisa into one of these, with plenty of murder weapons and torture implements he intends to use on her. Which makes things all the more satisfying when Lisa turns these implements on him.
