Silence of the Lambs references/ripoffs (SPOILERS kinda)

Okay so I thought some parts of the movie were very alike to some in SotL.

When Brittany Snow goes for her shall that the killer is like almost touching her hair is exactly as Buffalo Bill does to Clarice at the end of SotL

Also when the detectives are in the hotel room and blood starts falling from the vent. I mean c'mon and at the end it wasn't the killer but something/someone the killer placed there to mislead the good guys as he leaves through the front door UGH a bit too similar, i guess it doesn't really matter this movie was *beep* but still

anyone agree?

yes, for sure i was thinking silence of the lambs with the blood falling through the vent, and i didnt think it with the hair touching, but now that you mention it, it was pretty reminiscent, good call

To the OP: for the sin of putting SoTL in the same sentence as this piece of steaming shyte the deepest ring of hell has been reserved for you sir.

Silence of the lambs is such a brilliant masterpiece. (While this is just a piece of garbage...i refuse to put their names in the same sentence). Also it ripped off Halloween at the end. (along with hardly any blood)

The movie tried to rip off every slasher/thriller/teen movie from the 90s, including I Know What You Did Last Summer, Se7en and She's All That. And it still failed.
