How would you survive a horror movie?

[Jake0fTrades]

Think of your favorite horror movie, and think of a way in which you would overcome the odds and survive, be it karate-chopping Jason Voorhees or throwing Michael Myers off of a bridge. What would you do?

For me, it would have to be The Ring.

"Hey, I found this video tape at my friends house, let's watch it."

"Nah, I'm kind of in the mood for Finding Nemo."

By re-watching Scream.

I'm the minority, so of course I would die. Unless it's an Asian horror movie, then I might live but end up extremely traumatized.

 

[rapidoud]

If it was just a movie:

Don't be a dick
Don't try and drive off (cars tend to be made of explodium)
Get everyone to run in a big group together and run the hell away, it worked in Jeepers Creepers 2

If it was real life:

Assert your dominance, take the big guys with you, grab the car and bail. Alternatively, grab a gun, back 4 of yourselves against walls and wait for help.

Failing that, cover 360 degrees and make your way to help.

Failing that, get a girl to be bait, when she's dying (after you hid in the trees, although this didn't work in Rogue), run like hell.

I would kill everyone starting with the minorities before being thwarted but not killed by the only people with any personality.

That way I would at least survive.

 

[CthulhuMessiah]

I'd give Michael Myers a big 'ol hug. I think thats all he really wanted.

 

[Phlakes]

Be the likable one and not have sex with my romantic interest. And never be relieved.

#1: Tremors.

Be Burt Gummer.

Barring that, stock up on dynamite and small arms for when the little ones start showing up.

#2: Ghost Ship

Um... Ah. Hmm.
Can't run, ship'll kill me.
Can't stay, ship'll kill me.
Can't kill the guy running things.
Can't even be sure what I'm seeing is reality.

Screw it, I'm jumping ship and taking my chances in the open water.

 

[MrCalypso]

I would:
1. Get in my car, after checking the back seat of course.
2. Drive to the nearest airport and buy a seat on the next plane leaving for a major city.
3. Check into a nice hotel.
4. Order room service and wait for the whole thing to blow over and see how many of my friends survived.

Basically put as many cities, states, and continents between me and the killer/monster as possible.

 

[Noyourjoanzy]

I'd stop talking about how many days I had left until retirement.
Your welcome

 

[Mikeyfell]

Don't be the most attractive character
Have the least amount of personality traits
Keep your clothes on
Shut your fucking mouth
Cary a flashlight Fuck that, don't go into dark places
And if they ever split up don't go with the guy who suggested the split up in the first place.

That should get you out of any horror movie you can think of.

Except for Paranormal Activity.
If you end up in Paranormal Activity you're fucked.

 

[Shoggoth2588]

For a majority of horror films, all I have to do is continue to not get drunk, continue to not get high and, continue to not have sex. I should be perfectly fine just so long as I don't say "It's finally over, we're finally safe."

 

[hittite]

Can't run, ship'll kill you

It's still the best bet I've got. If I can get off the ship, all I have to worry about are exhaustion and hypothermia. Those I have a chance against.

 

[Lucane]

Any horror movie. Not be the black guy or the blonde chick

Shit!


Um well if I happen to survive past the first 3 killings I might get to be the (soul/sole:?) black survivor at the end of the killing spree and/or have a near fatal incident making it seem like I already died earlier. (Ya can't kill who you think's already dead.)

Actually Plan for anyone?
Never go in groups smaller than 3, never be the one to wander off alone,get everyone at least a knife/bat & a gun even to kids as well.(they never seem to die anyways) and keep a cool head people who get highly emotional usually die sooner than others (half the time in front of them.)

EditAfter fully reading O.P.)
If Serial Mom counts not pissing off... not upsetting Beverly by not wearing white(It's after Labor Day),being kind and rewinding(Glad I just bought a CD-rewinder),and not dating her daughter.(or at least not breaking up with her) & a few other things.

 

[Shoujin]

Pretty much for any horror movie, I would do anything the main character said to do, no matter how ludicrous the demand - they're not going to die and NEITHER AM I! Plus, I wouldn't stop to look around - cause seriously, stopping means falling behind, and falling behind means DEAD!

 

[Belaam]

By being the killer. I'll survive this movie and the eight sequels.
