10 Things To Avoid If You Want To Survive A Slasher Movie

10. Believing The Killer Is Dead

Believing that the killer will not stand up once you've knocked him down is naive beyond measure. It's the kind of rookie mistake that's sure to have you learn the hard way. Countless times have we seen a character who erroneously thought the fight was over only to be reminded that not only is the psycho still alive but he's is even angrier than ever at you for trying to kill him in the first place.

He could have been rescued from certain death by an accomplice or there was black magic at play. Maybe he fell into a vat of chemicals and now he's suddenly become immune to death. Whatever the case may be, the point is, you'll become psycho dinner if you don't go the extra mile of dislimbing that mother, even after dealing a mortal blow which he seemingly could not have survived from.

We saw this in the movies Chucky, Scream, and Friday The 13th wherein the murderously inclined routinely get their fair share of stab wounds from the last-girl-standing before it's "all over".
