If you're a girl in a horror movie...

[WorthyStevens]

39. Don't be a blonde with big breasts.

 

[Timstuff]

40. Gain 10 or 20 pounds. Cannibals won't be interested if they think you're high in cholestorol.

41. Don't have sex. Psychos are only interested in girls with "experience".

42. If you're too stupid to run away before the psycho has the chance to revive after being defeated, and instead decide to ensure he's dead, do not try to set him on fire, or else he'll mutate into something worse.

 

[Mr.Webs]

43. Never, ever run. It'll waste energy, for it seems that despite all your running, the killer, who happens to only be walking, will get you anyway.

See this is why Canadian slasher movies are better, we always ignore all the rules the Americans are so fund of.

Dawn of the Dead Remake
You're rule doesn't aply

no.... but she broke another rule.

dont have an interacial relationship with a criminal black guy.

my rule still applies

It's interesting to look back at film history and see where a lot of these things began.

Although most of them are linked back to mythology, in filmic terms the link between female sexuality and horror seems to have begun with an excellent Jacques Tourneur/Val Lewton film called "Cat People".

Within, it linked sexual arousal to the woman's transformation into a black panther, forever entwining repressed female sexuality and terror in our modern culture.

Cat People is a lurid, 1940s B-Movie, and has all the things that come with lurid B-Movies, including some cheesy, dated dialogue and occasional over convenient plot twists. And I wouldn't want it any other way.

Check it out, if you can.

 

[CorporalHicks]

44. dont die

 

[gvcool2]

45. Avoid talking to Jamie Lee Curtis, she'll get you ****ed up

 

[CorporalHicks]

46. oh ho, f*** that

 

[The Hero]

38. Avoid being black

Something about that one made me laugh out loud.

 

[gvcool2]

it's that old saying, it's funny because it's true

 

[Majik1387]

47. If you feel the need to defend yourself, don't just take 1 knife from the kitchen, take all the knives you can find. Forks too if you're desperate.

48.Try to be nice and don't be a bi+ch to people. Killers hate bi+ches.

49.If the killer is wearing a mask, do not try to unmask him or you will get hurt and possibly die or have one of your friends die.

50.If the electricity goes off, get out of the damn building. Don't try to turn it back on by flicking the light switch or looking for a fuse box. Just get out.

 

[Matt.S99]

51.dont be shocked when your best friend dies,its obvious that it was gonna happen

 

[gvcool2]

52. If you find yourself with a bummed leg from your previous encounter with the killer, borrow lil suzie's bicycle and get out

 

[TrailerCues]

53. Do not have a black boyfriend. He would more then likely be the one to die first worrying about himself & then the girl is next

 

[Muze]

47. If you feel the need to defend yourself, don't just take 1 knife from the kitchen, take all the knives you can find. Forks too if you're desperate.

why bother when another rule dictates that any weapon held by a woman in one of these movies will instantly become useless? i don't know how many times i've seen a gun jam in a horror flick; only to be thrown.

54. never judge a book by its cover/trust the creepy janitor.

 

[gvcool2]

I'm no gun expert, but does a gun jam nearly as much as you see in the movies???

 

[gvcool2]

and how heavy is a gun? would throwing it really hurt anyone?

 

[Muze]

I'm no gun expert, but does a gun jam nearly as much as you see in the movies???

depends on the brand of gun, i'd guess. i've never actually used one. i just know that throwing it isn't the best thing to do.

 

[TrailerCues]

i just know that throwing it isn't the best thing to do.

Thats obvious because the killer would catch the gun & have knowledge on using the gun unjam & shoot the chick with the gun that she threw

 

[The Last Meatbag]

-Guns do nothing

 

[Sentinel X]

55. Don't waste your time talking to civilians. They never believe you and by the time they have evidence theyre dead.

56.If you are hot...good for you, you'll be chased by the killer

57. Stop pretending to be shocked...you know the killer and he knows you.

58. Stop panting when you hide...you never pant when running for miles so why do it when you hide?

59. Don't hide in a room, closet, or behind a piece of furniture

60. Stop taking weird roadtrips to the middle of nowhere with your friends. youll meet a crazy psychopath there...99.9999% of the time.

 

[gvcool2]

61. Always equip yourself with at least 26 cell phones, at least 25 won't work

 

[Immortalfire]

62. When you're lost in the woods of West Virginia, and you find a lone cabin; run the hell away.

 

[amazingfantasy15]

63. If your house starts talking to you, pack your $#!t and move. Better yet, don't even bother packing, that $#!t isn't worth your life.
