Hinge stuck and screws embedded won’t budge - anyone know how to remove?

The first one came out fine (second pic) The second is not coming out and the screws are so embedded in. I’ve googled and tried WD-40 and 3in1 penetrating oil to try and lube them up but not budging. Now hitting it with a hammer and screw driver as a drift but don’t want to damage the door too much and it’s really not moving where the screws are. Any tips? submitted by /u/Conscious_Guess9637 [link] [comments]
