10 Horror Movie Mistakes You Can Never Un-see

10. Darkness Falls

Released in 2003, Darkness Falls is a horror which sees its cast plagued by a light-sensitive ghoul referred to as… The tooth fairy.

That should give you a good enough idea of this silly but fun horror film’s tone. But even goofy horror efforts need some semblance of believability.

There’s a scene early in proceedings wherein our hero is introduced as an adult, and lest the audience forget that he say his dear mum offed by the tooth fairy herself prior to the opening credits, he’s popping pills from a bottle labelled as “anti-psychotic”.

So, probably worth noting that most psychoactive drugs don’t actually have the patient’s condition printed on their side, so that… Well, so that no one is forced to take pills from a bottle labelled “anti-psychotic”.

Then again, this film seems to have trouble with a lot of basic facts. The lightstick which our heroes smash via dropping it late in the film? Those boys are often used by divers, cave explorers, and EMTs precisely because they don’t, you know, explode upon falling a few feet. Turns out those colourful chemicals need to stay in there for a reason.
