The animated doll thing...

I just watched Dolly Dearest, It isn't much different from Child's Play (except Child's Play is better)...Stuart Gordon's Dolls puts a little different spin on it, as does Ragdoll, Pinnochio's Revenge, Ghosthouse and the Puppetmaster movies

Still...It's a bit cliche

Had to read the whole thread to make sure these others weren't mentioned:

1) The cars never start
2) Complete silence...Then the loud, sudden, jump scare
3) Looking out a dark window, something comes crashing through it
4) Chicks with big boobs HAVE to take their clothes off (I think it's a requirement or something)
5) Creaky doors
6) Basement lights burn out/burst
7) Tripping/falling down basement stairs
8) Asshole always dies fast
9) Old guy that everyone loves, as soon as he says, "This is my last day on the job", "I'm retiring after this", or gives you his whole life story and endears himself to you...He's dead...You KNOW he's dead...
10) If there's water...A lake, pond, pool...Someone usually ends up dead in it...
11) Big black attack dogs in gated cemeteries...What ARE they protecting?
12) Cemetery fences/gates with spikes on top...Somebody's gonna get snagged, injured or impaled on them
13) Run out of gas/break down at night in a storm...Go to old farmhouse to use the phone...You're dead

Firing guns.

Even expert marksment have a very difficult time firing a gun accurately with one hand, let alone a gun in each hand, one being the person's off hand. It's nigh unto impossible to shoot a target accurately when you're holding the gun sideways.

That is a silly silly thing to see.

Yeah, every time when the masked maniac gets knocked unconscious or whatever, they always leave him there. Then they walk away and of course he gets up again and comes after them again.

Why don't they at least bash him in the kneecaps a couple of times, you know, give him a couple of painful bruises at least? Something to slow the sonofabitch down when he wakes up, right?

Or if you clobbered him in an Indian restaurant, you could pour some hot chili-mint chutney on his eyes while he's unconscious. Believe me, he won't be following you again any time soon! He'll wake up screaming, jump to his feet, and probably run straight into the nearest wall!

Or the reverse...Trained shooters (police, etcetera) who fire a multitude of rounds...And don't hit shit...


OH...How about...Cars that explode when you tap them?:rolleyes:

Remember the helicopter in Island Of It's Alive?...One of the babies attacked the helicopter pilot...The helicopter exploded...WTF?...It didn't even hit anything...Just exploded in midair over the water...It actually made us laugh...
