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

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!!!

 

Thanks for reading!
