A question about one of the "dramatic effects" in slasher films…?

admin — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 15:10:32 +0000

Whose idea was it really to have an unlucky victim’s extremities or head, if sliced through by a blade, remain in place for 3 seconds before falling off? I’m awfully curious about it… (The laser scene in Resident Evil is a good example of this and the opening scene of Cube)

That is just geninuely how it would happen in real life, like if you get shot in the head, you don’t fall down right away, you body reacts and you basically plop. It is a real reaction of the body, if someone were to (unfortunately) get their head chopped off.

In slasher films why does the killer always strike while the victims are having sex?

admin — Wed, 27 Jul 2011 00:46:35 +0000

And why is it that the one who ends up defeating the killer at the end of the movie is the innocent virgin girl who said ‘no’ to the sex and drugs? Is it social commentary?

John Carpenter once explained that those "victims" were always too involved with their signifcant other and unaware of a killer on the loose, or even anyone in the room. Not social commentary, just those "innocent virgins" were more aware of their surroundings. He got that same kind of criticism in the 70′s over Halloween.
