These are some of the plots that I found that nearly all movies seem to follow...

Horror Movies:
1. It doesn't matter how fast you run, the walking killer always seems to be faster.

2. Your flashlight will go out, you will fall, your car won't start, but if it does, you won't bother to check the back seat.

3. Shooting the "bad guy", let's call him Jason, is never enough (even if it's a head shot), as soon as you look, he's gone!

4. When you see a dead body, you always scream.

5. A big fat guy carrying a chainsaw can and will outrun you.

6. Don't bother hiding, they will find you.

7. If you're on foot being chased by a vehicle, you will run directly in it's path instead of running onto the sides, like in a wooded area, instead of running around trees where a truck couldn't possibly drive, you will stick to the exact middle of the path, the only possible place they could possibly drive.

8. No matter what the situation, someone always wants to split up.

9. If in a chase, your odds of hurting your leg somehow are almost unavoidable.

10. When you've been running for a long period of time, you're very winded and tired, however, the criminal who was directly behind you, shows absolutely no sign of fatigue.

11. When the phone rings, you are always afraid to pick it up.

12. When you hear something behind you, it takes you forever to turn around.

13. It's always dark and raining.

14. When you see the killer, you can scream as loud as hell, but when you see someone who can help you off in the distance, your screaming sound like gasping whispers.

15. Remember that a doll, let's call him Chucky, is much stronger than any human.

16. The main character never dies.

17. Few killers have guns, most have chain saws, hooks, knives, or other sharp foreign objects.

18. No matter where the killing is happening, the killer seems to know the place as if it were their own.

19. If there's more than one killer, they will usually betray the other one at some point.

20. If in a car chase, there's no sense to trying to hide as all killers must have some advanced tracking system that we are unaware of.

21. At night every curtain is usually open so you can see it storming outside.

22. When you're the wanted target, it doesn't matter how many policemen are around you, you will be caught.

23. No killer is ever killed by the police, but usually by the main character, a civilian.

24. Usually when in car chases, the other person's big truck is much faster then your sports car.

25. Police never hear of these chases either even though it takes place in an area with lots of traffic.

26. Killers can move without making a sound, but when you sneak around, you knock something over or the floor squeaks loudly.

27. All killers must see just how slow they can turn door knobs.

28. Don't bother hitting the killer with something heavy over their head as because they will be up within a matter of seconds and know exactly where to find you.

29. Don't bother turning on the T.V., it can only mean bad news.

30. No killer has a real motive for doing what they did.

31. Every killer is as strong as all hell, so don't get in
a fist fight.

32. The killer is the last person you'd ever suspect.

33. When trying to solve a case, you will finally crack it, but only at the last possible second.

34. Every forest is foggy at night.

35. If you're in a ghost town in the middle of nowhere, everyone there will be crazy, even the police.

36. Despite all the forensic science out there today, no killer ever leaves behind any evidence.

37. Don't bother running in the dark, the killer must have night vision goggles.

38. Save some time and don't try calling for help, the line's dead.

39. Don't reach for your cell phone either, there's no reception, or the batteries are dead.

40. Most killers must be psychic, because if you were to hide in a hotel with 500+ rooms, the killer would know the exact room you're in, not only that, but even the whereabouts within the room.

41. If you wake up from a bad dream, you will be drenched in sweat.


Other Movies:
1. No wedding ever goes as planned.

2. Every sports game comes down to the final play.

3. In a movie where people are betting money over a poker game, no player ever has a bad hand.

4. All rich people are snotty.

5. The main character can drive cars perfectly, like insane stunts, and they land them every time. Did I mention that they can afford brand new sports cars no matter what their occupation is?

6. No car has airbags.

7. Any time two people of the opposite sex have to work together, they will fall in love.

8. If an action movie where there's a time limit (like a bomb), they'll save the day, but only with just seconds remaining.

9. In fighting movies, enemies attack one by one.

10. When your driving in desert area, your car will be low on gas, there will be but one station for the next 100 miles, and the people are all corrupt.

11. All vehicles that fall off something high, like a mountain, will explode on impact.

12. Alarm clocks must be cheap, because some people must go through hundreds in a years time as they always pound them or throw them against the wall.

13. After sex, when a man and woman are holding each other, they can have a smile expression while sleeping.

14. When the "bad guy" is about to kill the "good guy", he always has to give a big touching speech before he goes through with it, and by the time he has finished saying, "I will enjoy killing you", someone or something will interrupt him at the last possible second.

15. When giving birth, the newborn will be a 20-30 pound three month year old. Seems like it would hurt.
