Does it seem like horror movie victims just seem to invite horrible deaths through stupidity? Do you watch horror movies and think to yourself what an idiot or are they just as smart as everyone else?

Double tap, please, preferably in the head. I've never heard of a movie killer that died from just one bullet.

The movie killer never dies the first time. If you think he's dead...kill him again!

Bullet to the head is usually fatal

True, but so is most of what the movie killer gets up from. Better safe than sorry!

My five-year-old grandsons exhibit more intelligence than those moronic movie victims! But there wouldn't be much of a movie without the idiot victims,would there?I think that some director should revisit the old split screen movie,where on one half of the screen,the audience gets the killer's point of view,and the other halfis the victim's!We'd probably see the killer laughing his/ her ass off, as they watch the victim do all of the cliched crap! Like yelling,"Hello?" in a dark creepy environment, instead of getting the hell outta there!

How about some true horror, where the situation is totally out of control and you don't need Stupidity as a plot device? At least not stupidity on the part of the victims at least.

I think we can only find movies being made like that by foreign directors,and unfortunately, most American viewers don't care to read subtitles!

Sometimes. i think the smartest ppl in horror films are probably the 1s from the Scream franchise, theyre aware of the usual cliches and "rules" at least.

And they still get killed! Wisdom and Knowledge rarely go hand in hand and they never go hand in hand in a horror movie!

Haha i know but its a movie remember, sydney, dewey, gail etc. are still alive, dewey and gail have been stabbed a good few times and they followed the "rules." i think the smartest rule is to stay as a group and carry a damn gun.

The one that gets me the most is deciding that you absolutely have to take that shortcut down the unpaved road instead of just driving straight down the interstate a few more miles to your destination

I hate when they do something like hit them once or just shoots them in the arm and run; they get caught and die. It wouldn't have happened if you wouldve killed it the first time!

Oh Man Yes. Can't run anywhere without tripping on something. Running up-stairs, when they should just run out and away, course they'd just trip on something. Having sex when they know some monsters or killer around, etc...

Note to 'teenage' girls in horror movies:

keeping your clothes on is more than birth control, It's self preservation!
