Horror films maken vaak gebruik van ongeschreven regels, zoals de auto die niet wilt starten, verstuikte enkel en domme beslissingen die mensen hun leven kosten. Daarom heeft de website Unreality nu deze lijst gemaakt. Moraal van het verhaal hier is, laat boeken met mensenhuid met rust en neem geen lifters mee.


Jeepers Creepers: Hey, We Should Drive Back After That Guy Tried To Murder Us And See What He Was Up To

Is it just me, or is every single thing that Justin Long does in this movie incredibly stupid? You can play a drinking game called "take a shot everytime Justin Long makes a poor decision", and you will be legally dead within fourteen minutes of this film. Trust me, I know a thing or two about inventing drinking games that kill people. It can be said, that, if Justin Long had not made the few first decisions he did in the movie, that nothing bad would've happened to the characters at all.

I feel like Justin Long saw this movie and quickly asserted he should stick to comedy. I like him in comedy, for the most part. But when playing the teen who makes choices in a horror film, he is one notch under "full-retard", as Robert Downey JR would say.

He sees a guy dumping bodies into a well. That guy then proceeds to use his nightmarish old truck to drive them off the road. Justin's reaction to this is " Hey sis, we should go look into that well because somebody might need help!" How about NO!

What you SHOULD do in that scenario: Figure out the route you are on, look for some landmarks, and call the cops. They can check the well, AND look for the (very distinct) truck that drove you off the road. I understand that there is some "he used his peepers, so it cost him his peppers" subtext here, but still, his decisions in the film almost felt suicidal. Plus, was I the only person who sensed SLIGHT sexual tension between these two actors? Sorry, the sis/bro vibe was not the vibe these two were radiating. Just saying.
