  4. In "It Follows" you'd be looking over your shoulder for the rest of your life no matter what. Sleeping with a prostitute is very smart, BUT, say whoever the prostitute next has sex with is quickly killed by the entity. Maybe the prostitute isn't working the next few days or whatever so it kills her. Then in just a few days the entity could be back after you again.

  5. A few (not all 100% horror) off the top of my head:

    I Spit on Your Grave 2 – Katie forcing herself to vomit up the ketamine they force her to swallow, pretending to be drugged into the K hole again, then knocking her captor out with the bedpan and escaping

    127 Hours – not a horror, but it's a grizzly scene – cutting his own hand off

    Evil Dead remake – the girl cutting her arm off after her hand becomes infected

    Cabin Fever 2 – using the electric saw in the wood shop to cut off his arm when the lesions start

    Final Destination 2 – Clear admitting herself to a padded cell on a psych ward. Yes, she leaves to help to new group, but she is the only character in any Final Destination to make it to a sequel

    Friday the 13th Part 2 – Using Pamela's head to fool Jason

    You're Next – Pretty much everything Erin does

    The Exorcist – Karras jumping out the window to his death as Pazuzu enters him to send it back to Hell

  14. Amazing video watch mojo of the smartest decisions in horror franchise, fantastic job. What about Kate decide to blow up the ship instead of fixing the ship for the soul collector in ghost ship and what about Jake from dead silence when fall cover his mouth not to scream so that Mary Shaw to get him until the end of the movie too.

  17. Swinging an axe to kill someone would be insanely tiring after only 10 or so swings. You have a pretty good chance of surviving someone who is chasing you with an axe, lol. normal people don't have the stamina of professional athletes. The worst offender is Leatherface, carrying and swinging a chainsaw, which is utterly ridiculous.

  22. The fireworks is a good idea. I have a movie I thought was this but it’s Cabin Fever. It’s like the first zombie film. When they’re is on man alive but the cops think he’s a zombie so they shoot him. In Cabin fever, the same thing. The only man to survive the fever is beloved to be infected so He gets shot. I never saw part two of cabin fever they take water from the the disc I bout from a store that buys discs too and I don’t know who bought the disc but when I opened it, it was covered in a white film. Looked like jizzz. I cleaned it in the sink and it works. it’s in and bottle it to use in the punch they use at a Prom at a near by high school.ot looked bad.
