10. The Racist/Sexist/Homophobe
Since horror movies have a strange skewed sense of morality (see the points on drug use, sexual promiscuity and general bad attitude previously), any character who does anything bigoted at all is likely to find themselves murdered very quickly. And rightly so, of course. So, make sure you keep your opinions clean and non-discriminatory, because no matter how remorseful you become, you aren't going to hide from the reaper for too long. The horror universe has no time for you, if you happen to be this particular character, and in all likelihood you're death will be accompanied by some additional shame - you have to pay for your crimes somehow. So expect to plead for your life and crawl on your belly towards a redemption that will never come - because you are the worst kind of victim and there's nothing but death in your future. And good riddance - some people deserve to suffer a horrible movie death. Are there any horror cliche characters that we missed? Share your thoughts below...
