I Can't Stand the Horror Trope of Slashers that Can 'Teleport'

  Credit to  Teleportation Vector Images | Depositphotos There is one horror trope that always bothers me when it comes to several horror movies.  How the hell can a slasher be in two places at once? What I mean by that is…why do horror directors sometimes ignore how a human can move? I’ve seen several horror movies that were really great, but were ruined by a killer who was able to teleport.  That doesn’t make any sense.  Unless time travel is involved, then go for it, but a human killer can’t teleport! Where does this sudden supernatural ability come from? It’s just so…stupid. So, like, does the mask or the outfit give the killer powers or what? This is a random side rant, but I felt the need to talk about this. I recently remembered a horror movie where the killer was able to be at two places at once, while he was going after two people.  Like he somehow was able to travel across the entire city in seconds to catch up to the other victim. How??? Not even science can explain this!!!

Megan is a Self-Aware Horror Movie that is Campy, Ruthless, and Hilarious

Megan is one of those horror movies that I really loved. The story is based on a robot that is created by a scientist named Gemma, that wants to give her niece a friend, and someone to babysit her, due to her busy schedule in the workplace. This decision leads to deadly consequences, when her creation begins to develop an attachment to her niece; willing to do whatever it takes to protect her friend. 

Megan is a wonderful addition to the roster of horror slashers. Having a creepy doll like girl as a threat to anyone that dares to harm her friend is so original. She is just like Chucky, another horror doll slasher villain that many horror fans adore. However, I think that Megan is much worse. 

She has super strength, is extremely intelligent, and is quite flexible and creative when it comes to her kills. She is the true definition of what a friend is; willing to kill anyone that stands in the way of her friendship. I thought it was pure genius when the doll would sing to Gemma's niece, giving the film a wonderful comedic feel. What made this add on so great for the movie, was that it doesn't even take away from the film, it made perfect sense; since Megan herself is considered a little girl. 

This film is a wonderful horror tale, and I can't wait for the sequel; where Megan will cause even more mayhem to anyone that is a threat in her robotic mind!



Thank you for reading!
