10 Dumb Decisions In Horror Movies That Got The Villain Killed
3. Amber Lets Everyone Know She's Still Alive - Scream (2022)
In 2022's Scream, Sam Carpenter and the other residents of Woodsboro find themselves at the mercy of another Ghostface. In the third act, Sam discovers the killers are her partner, Richie, and her friend, Amber. After Amber is shot three times and incinerated on the stove, Sam's party face off against Richie, eventually slitting his throat.
Sam breathes a sigh of relief, believing the nightmare is finally over. Suddenly the horribly disfigured Amber lunges at her while brandishing a knife. Luckily, Sam's sister, Tara shoots Amber dead, ending Ghostface's reign of terror (at least until the next instalment).
Of course, Amber only has herself to blame. If she snuck up on Sam and the others, she could've killed at least one of them before they realised she hadn't popped her clogs yet. Instead, the movie fanatic-turned-mass murderer charges into the room, screaming at the top of the lungs, giving everyone plenty of time to stop her.
Granted, Amber properly wasn't thinking straight since half her face had melted off, but it doesn't change the fact her imbecilic actions led directly to her own demise.
