An overlooked horror movie cliche...
Blood shown splattering on a wall after someone is killed.
shareBlood shown splattering on a wall after someone is killed.
sharefinally make it to the car to escape only conveniently for the killer it just won't start.
shareEvery-Goddam-Time!!!
Also, does anybody know anyone that keeps car keys above the sun visor??
Why is this constantly in movies?
I like what they did with that idea and a dirt-bike in Pumpkinhead (1988).
(the escape part, not the sunvisor part. 🙃)
Been a while!
What did they do in that one again?
Scrambling through the dark, scary woods, our young herd of victims encounters a dirt-bike in a clearing. 'My bike!' cries one gladly as he runs forward. 'It's a TRAP!' wail the others. Scoffing, our junior Evel Knievel hops on his bike and fires it up with the first kick. [spoiler]The dirt-bike isn't going anywhere, though, since our favorite demon of revenge emerges, grinning toothily with the bike's drive-chain dangling from one outstretched claw.[/spoiler] Things go badly from this point.
shareYes...Pumpkinhead, always the trickster!
Funny, we called a boy in our class 'pumpkinhead' because of his very large head
Still kills me to this day but he never thought it was funny:/
I used to work with a guy we called pumpkinhead. We'd joke that his head was so big that it had its own gravitational field. He was cool about it; 'got to have the brain-room', something like that. He did a great Mike Myers too "Me and my great mis-shapend head'll be right there."
shareOh man, my dude wanted to kill all of us...big stocky kid, probably could have!
But that didn't stop us lol
The killer never really dies.
shareTell me about it!
shareThis one always had us arguing as kids...
'Well, what if you stuffed a grenade in Michael's underpants?'
'What if you shoved Jason in a tub if acid...how could he come back?'
It all got a bit hokey because nothing ever finished these guys...axe to the face for Jason, hospital explosion for Michael...nothing
How about the one where the character hears a suspicious noise and is looking around for the source, the background music slowly builds up, then someone grabs their shoulder, but oh, it's just their boyfriend/girlfriend/friend/relative.
Like seriously, who just walks up behind someone and grabs them on the shoulder? That happens in every movie. Nobody does that in real life.
Hell no
I would expect to get punched out in real life!
That's really rude
the protagonist is always entering a dark attic/ basements or caves.
sharea murder of crows suddenly takes flight from the trees
antique dolls
rogue wheels on gurneys
flashlights are either dropped or don't work.
