Watched a film whilst ironing today. Why, when faced with an obviously creepy, spooky old house, say, do they immediately decide to split up and explore? They always die horribly and never seem to learn!

For the same reason as they don't put all the lights on and make loads of noise when they hear a noise downstairs or always trip over a root when running away through a spooky forest.

They are very good looking though.

And they know they won't die unless they are an outsider who was invited to join the group at the last minute.

Because Hollywood movie producers (or whoever it is that writes the story lines) lack imagination and talent.

Jamie Fraser etc. Indeed, nothing terrible ever happened in a lit room. It’s a theory I cling to to this day. Love theusername, by the way😛,!

The Cabin In The Woods explains this very nicely.

Basically if they behaved intelligently it would be a very short film! Grin

Oh and they always ask "Who is it?" when someone bangs aggressively on the door instead of running in the opposite direction!

Tinkerbell456 · 15/03/2019 10:22

The holy smirk. This is because there are no ugly Americans. They are culled at birth. Do keep up!😀

Yes and if the last 2 standing are male and female, it’s always the woman who survives...

MrsJayy · 15/03/2019 10:25

Yes just go down into the cellar it will be fiinnne Grin the friday the 13th films used to irritate me what you need to do is put the light on and just run away

Tinkerbell456 · 15/03/2019 10:28

I would also like to know the homicide rate in the Appalachian mountains. Are they really Coker’s with hillbilly cannibalise? Surely not!

Umm. Meant chokkers of course.

Also cannibals!

And when they do eventually get into it they either use a feather or a mop or some other measly weapon to fend off the attacker or if they use something substantial, they never finish the job. Hmm

It's similar to when NCIS and Criminal Minds agents go into a building and mince about with torches in a darkened room.

Just put the pigging lights on!!!
