If it moves kill it. If it turns out it was your friend he was reanimated/possessed and you did the right thing.

I wanna see Cloverfield... looks endearing...


Here's a few more:

- Nobody believes the protagonist at first, until the same non-believer is found decapitated in a closet. At which point, the protagonist is blamed.

- The normal human response to ANY threatening situation is to either a) stand still and scream until the situation resolves itself, or b) barricade yourself in an enclosed area with no communication to the outside world and expect to be rescued.

- The required reply to ANY plan is "That will never work! We're all going to die!"

- The government is always evil, and interested only in nuking stuff to solve their problems

- When horror is involved, the normal mathematical laws of probability no longer apply.



I just saw AVPR recently. It's the comedy of the year! I was laughing my arse off the whole way through!

Fortune tellers are always right!

Cute little girls are evil

Old people always play lame jokes

The  "Oh No!"  "Oh Yes!" scenario's!

You always kiss your newly met Evilmosterthingie girlfriend (or vice versa)  in an abandoned place

Computer scenes (breaking into a computer ect.ect.) are always worth laughing your ass of (anyone seen "hackers" ? or Independence day? "I just uploaded a virus I just made.............."   xD) [though Matrix does it neat when the power plant has to shut down]

sighs...

Someone who looks like a bad guy ends up being good (vice versa)

People get an Major IQ boost (I just saw its eye twitch at the sight of your amulet, maybe if you put that into his heart it would die)

I get shot by gun, I fly through the air

Little pet thingies are funny and have major influences

Robot's with emotions! "Bleep, I I love you bleep"

Or else! Or else what? (exactly :P) The .... gets it

nerdy guy gets killed, blond girl gets killed, average joe survives

Apropos computers ... on top of extremely nerdy looking "operating systems" with extremely lame looking password dialogs (best while watching the rated documents behind them), network scans return IP addresses with fractions greater than 255...

Any monster you encounter will either be the same size as you, or the size of a skyscraper, nothing in between.
We're not evil. We're simply amazing.

In any zombie film, zombies must always be able to operate a chainsaw, but not be able to turn a door knob.

The better a unique plot, the worse a remake or sequel: No more inspiration, no more creativity, no more matching cast.
