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!!!

Sam's Death in The Walking Dead Will Always Remain One of the Most Disturbing Kid Deaths

Credit to Entertainment Weekly

The Walking Dead has had its ups and downs during the runtime of the show. It will always be a shame how the show lost a large portion of its viewership around seasons 7 and 8, due to poor writing with the story and its characters. 

The show was fantastic from the first season all the way to the sixth season. One of my favorite death scenes in season 6 has to be the Anderson family. Watching the youngest child get devoured by zombies was brutal. I loved the realism of this scene, because I was honestly expecting the show to do a cop out where the kid survives. Luckily, that wasn't the case here. 

Sam is eaten alive, the zombies literally begin eating at his head, going old school with the zombies loves brains trope, right in front of his mother and older brother. Watching the mother scream in agony as her child is eaten right in front of her is brutal. She is in so much shock that she allows the zombies to rip her apart next, as she endures the same pain her son went through. 

This is when The Walking Dead was at its peak of greatness. I wish we had more death scenes like this, because when it comes to kids, zombies don't just skip over the meal for a bigger one. They are always hungry, and they will consume anything they can get their hands on. 

Watching Sam die like that was tragic, and the writing in this episode was one of the best.
