    Our group of teenagers should definitely split up to search for the monster and/or serial killer!

    Rather than making a swift exit to anywhere else, we should instead hide in this building where we think the killer is

    That’s why I love Cabin in the woods. They make it a creepy movie, but also make fun of all the common horror tropes by having the haunted grounds be a very orchestrated event.

    “Oh no my cell phone doesn’t work” It’s because the creepy org turned on a cell phone jammer

    “Why don’t they just leave?” The creepy org blows up a shit load of tnt to make the tunnel collapse

    It would be kinda funny for someone to make something that starts as a horror movie but then everyone acts in a sensible manner without contrived reasons for their efforts failing, resulting in the whole dangerous situation falling apart over the course of the plot until its more a sort of parody of horror movies than a proper example.

    That's just a normal movie

    The best horror movies are the ones where all the characters act in a highly capable and intelligent way and the monster/force/whatever still keeps beating them. Like The Thing. Or Alien.

    I want a horror movie where some of the heroes are genre-savvy, Practical Guide to Evil style. I picture it starting as a horror, and shifting into a kind of heist storyline
