🔪 Have you ever watched a slasher movie and thought to yourself, “Why don’t they just live in a big city and not go camping?” It seems like such a simple solution to avoiding becoming the next victim of a crazed killer. While it may seem like a no-brainer to the audience, the characters in these horror films never seem to get the memo.
🔪 Let’s explore some random thoughts that may cross your mind while watching a slasher movie, and why living in a big city and avoiding remote camping trips can be the ultimate survival strategy.
The Convenience of City Living
🔪 Living in a big city offers easy access to emergency services, hospitals, and law enforcement. In a slasher movie scenario, being able to quickly call for help can mean the difference between life and death.
🔪 Cities also tend to have more well-lit streets, security cameras, and busy public areas, making it harder for a killer to sneak up on unsuspecting victims.
The Perils of Remote Locations
🔪 On the flip side, camping in a remote location leaves you vulnerable to a variety of dangers. From wildlife encounters to getting lost in the woods, there are plenty of risks that come with roughing it in the great outdoors.
🔪 Plus, in a slasher movie, being isolated in the middle of nowhere means help is often far away, giving the killer ample time to strike without fear of interruption.
🔪 By choosing to live in a big city and avoiding camping trips to secluded areas, you greatly decrease your chances of becoming the next victim in a slasher movie scenario. So next time you find yourself shouting at the screen, “Just move to the city already!” remember that there is some truth to that random thought.
🔪 Stay safe, stay smart, and always keep your wits about you, especially if you find yourself in a horror movie situation. Remember, the solution to almost every slasher movie is to live in a big city and not go camping. Stay vigilant and may you always be the Final Girl or Guy in your own real-life horror story. 💀🪓🏙️
Jason Voorhees’s first onscreen kill was the survivor of the first movie, while at home in her apartment. Incidentally, a trope I hate. I am all for the idea that if someone survives a slasher movie, they should get to have a “happy” ending! Also some Scream films, Saw, Candyman, American Psycho, Child’s Play and IIRC most of its sequels, Leprechaun after the first, and many more.
Pro: you’re safe from almost every slasher from horror films
Con: you’re much more likely to get stabbed by a tweaker and/or mugger on your way home from work/school/grocery store etc.
I think I’ll take my chances in the suburbs lol
Slasher movies created by Big Hotel confirmed
And don’t run upstairs to the 2nd level thinking you’re going to escape.
Probably why I feel more spooked out being in the woods than in a big city.
The solution to every slasher movie is to get into a position where you have to be approached from a single direction. Have a high powered semi auto rifle or shotgun, a portable light source, essential supplies, maybe NV, and then just wait. Unless you’re fighting something supernatural like Freddy, you just win. I don’t care how strong Mike Myers or Jason is, once you blast their limbs of with 308 WIN and destroy the brain case, that’s it. Game over.
Even something more exotic like a xenomorph, predator, or the terminator can be solved this way. You just need a big enough gun, an advantageous position, and NV. The T800 isn’t getting up if you put a 500 sw magnum round into its head.
The most recent scream movie would like a word
I think it’s much more simple, stay as a group and leave at the first sign of danger. You aren’t the scooby gang.
No, the solution is to stay in groups, and maybe own a gun. Also, headshots with said gun.
Jason took Manhattan, friend. And don’t think you’ll be safe in space.
Scream would like to talk to you
The Winnie the Pooh horror movie has Pooh and Piglet slaughtering campers, but the sequel has them coming into the city
Candyman is set in chicago and freddy krueger doesnt give a fuck where you live
Leave nature to animals and Jason.
Back-up cellphone.
All I’m saying.
Shoutout to Scream 6 baby
Chucky don’t give a fuck where you live either.
Unfortunately living in a big city is certain death in a zombie movie and you’re better off camping
Friday the 13th VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan
And don’t have a car that still needs a key to unlock it.
