Are you the final survivor or will you die first?
If I have a bone to pick with many of the stereotypical horror movies (not you, Jordan Peele), it is the fact that the characters never seem to leave things alone. They find a creepy book and decide to read it out loud, and then cry when malevolent forces get unleashed. Teens take it upon themselves to play with spirits when they unearth a suspicious-looking Ouija board. Then they run away when the ghosts chase after them. Boo hoo!
Let’s be honest: if you’re not hiding behind your hands to foil the jumpscares, you’re screaming at the characters to stop playing with the unknown. You wonder why no one seems to be the rational person, protecting themselves the way we think they should. Throw the tape away! Don’t even pick up that suspicious box! Remove all thoughts of buying that creepy ass doll! Instead, we yell at them to stay strong enough, to not to tremble so much that they drop important things, like keys to the car or the sole weapon that will protect them. (TBH though, if they manage to avoid tragedy, we wouldn’t have a movie.)
