Basically movies where the director didn't care about logic and used that freedom to cook

The other thing that bothered me about the climax of Signs is the fact that this creature that's fast enough to scale buildings in a blink of an eye and strong enough to effortlessly hoist a child in one outstretched hand can so easily have the shit beat out of it by a regular-ass dude with a baseball bat taking a swing at it every 15 seconds while it just stands there taking it. Even before it got any water on it it was having its ass handed to it. It wasn't even a fight.

I still think the early moment of the scene when you first see the creature reflected off the tv is really cool though, to me that's where the movie peaked.

    I recall that the movie attempts to fill this plot hole by saying that the aliens were leaving the planet but that the injured, sick, or otherwise weakened aliens were left behind. I think the one holding the boy in the final confrontation was perhaps the same one that lost a digit when the protagonist was using a knife to see it's reflection through the door gap when it was locked in a pantry.

    I also recall the man in the car who was leaving that home with the pantry saying "btw we locked one of those things in the pantry, I think something was wrong with it. k bye"

    I don't know how much of this I made up.
