I was watching a movie last night called Incubus. People were trapped in a lab with no way out, with a psychopathic undead killer that is being experimented on by some demented scientists.
As I was watching I was seeing things that I would remember NOT to do if faced with a similar situation
1. If the door squeaks when you open it DO NOT go in.
2. If there is blood on the wall and a door next to said wall, DO NOT go in.
3. When the flashlight is dying.. banging it on your hand does NOT help you see better.
4. If you have a working flashlight and you are in a well lit area.. TURN YOUR FLASHLIGHT OFF.. which leads me to the next rule..
5. When the flashlight dies... so do you!
6. When you have another person with you and you think you are being followed by one or more demented killers.. the other person needs to keep watching behind you.
7. Hear strange, scary noises coming from somewhere? GO AWAY FROM THE NOISES, NOT TOWARDS THEM!
8. If you have found the things necessary to get you OUT of this horrible place.. GET OUT NOW. Do NOT go hunting for answers.
9. Having the key to demented killer's cell is a good thing. It means he can not get out.
10. Because you are stupid enough to unlock said killer's cell and go in to pull all of his tubes to 'kill' him, doesn't mean he's dead... FOR GOD SAKES LOCK HIS DOOR BEHIND YOU!
These tips should help you survive if you find yourself starring in a horror movie, or in a real life situation similar to this one.

NEVER go into the basement! If you a a pretty, busty blond, don't run into the woods--you will trip and fall and the bad guy will gut you. Always hang out with people that are better looking than you-only the nerdy or ugly ones survive horror movies!

Always bang very hard with one of your good hand on the head of the person you don’t seem to believe your confrontation with the physcopath even if one of your arms is broken and dangling and your face cut into ribbons, who kept saying things like
‘You might be dreaming, you might have stumbled and broken your arm, try to think carefully may be it is the shadows that are playing the tricks, you must me having a night mare and fallen from your bed.

Oh, yeah, I've often wondered why, in movies, when they finally get free they don't always run for help, or just plain away. The turning back for answers or to help someone else without any additional resources never made sense to me. (Unless it's a kid. But otherwise, go get help, or at least a weapon, before going back in or what use are you?)

Haha thanks for the post. This was really funny, if not helpful. I guess people just need to be extra stupid in movies to add to the scary factor. I haven't seen the movie yet but I've already lost interest in it after reading this post. Thanks for making my day, this was really funny!

Never walk backwards. I never see anyone walk backwards in real life except I do in horror movies. And guess what you run into when you walk backwards, you guessed it.

Hahaha. Really haha. I'm a big fan of horror movies and yet I am always telling those darn folks on the big screen what to do. I know it goes with the genre that they have to act a little stupid or else it wouldn't be a horror movie.
But wouldn't you like a good horror movie where they acted intelligently and it still was a good movie?

I have another rule...
Avoid seeing a horror film...
unless you have someone nearby who you can sit next to in the theatre;
unless you can talk out loud and say, "oh no" or "don't open that door" or
"go that way" and not bother anyone (Home is good for this.);
unless you can feel free to cover your eyes and/or leave the room if it gets too bloody, violent, gross, etc.
I don't think that I would want to star in a horror movie.

haha I enjoyed that. It's true to. Alot of scary movies are so predictable as they always make them make the same fatal mistakes. Another one they always do is make them go upstairs when they are trapped in a house, I never understood that. Or how once they get OUT of the house they find a reason to go back in and die. haha. It never fails!

*LOL* Those are SO true! And yet, everybody ALWAYS does stupid stuff in horror movies! There would be no movie if everybody always did the right thing! *LOL* Thanks for the laugh! :)

11. Just give it up because you're in a horror movie and you're going to die at some point no matter how hard you try to avoid it.

First of all, that is awesome! I love horror movies and I always find myself yelling at the screen because the people are so stupid. Like instead of hiding, they start screaming and the killer hears them and kills them. I think you said what everyone wants to say but never does, hehe.

a very important point to be noted
if door squeks dnt go inside
when u here something weird dnt go near it
obviously ppl will do the opposite due to their curiosity
We all need all the help we can get!

Hahaha. Sounds like pretty solid advice to me dizzblnd! People also need to understand that when something is being driven towards you, you CAN actually run to the left or right and not in a straight line, yes? It is also pretty wise to NOT decide to enter a sauna, tanning bed or empty shower/locker room whenever ecil music starts playing..... Listen for the music people!

LOL!! ahem..i believe i have a couple to add.
Dont be the ditzy blond that shows her boobs at the start of the "evening", she is destined to die.
If the basement is dark (or any room for that matter) and the light switch doesnt work..DONT GO IN.
If your running for your life..take OFF your damn high heels and stop screaming..save your breath to run FASTER!
oh..and STOP looking back..you will always trip! just run like hell!
and the best one..this could save everybodies life...when you hear the scary music, just RUN!!
LMAO!

Great tips!
You forgot when you fall down GET UP DON'T lay there and watch killer coming toward you.
Or how about, when your friend is sliced in half DON'T go back and try to save them, life is hard to live when you have to carry your legs around with you.

i saw one last night.I think the title was Ghost Ship (hope i got it right).
a man was being seduced by a pretty woman. why would you love to have s** with her if you didnt see her and the rest of the people in that room when you came in, then one by one they showed up eventually.who would love to kiss a ghost?another thing, dont be so greedy to get a skeleton's necklace? or if you do, make sure she is not gonna get mad...:P
