1. Don't commit suicide. You will be very sorry (and ugly) in the afterlife.
2. Hitting a ghost with a fire extinguisher is ineffective no matter how many times you try.
3. Don't bother to look both ways before stepping into the street to pick up an abandoned doll.
4. The Beacon is located in some mystery city that is not identified by any proper nouns.
5. If you've just wrestled a scissors blade out of a woman's hand be careful not to hold it high above your head otherwise some dumbass trigger happy cop will shoot you.
6. Same dumb trigger happy cop will also not notice that the "weapon" was originally in the woman's hand and not the man, so therefore unlikely that the man was trying to kill her with the weapon since she's holding it and not him.
Dumb cop will also just choose to shoot you rather than first taking a more sensible approach and try to grapple the "weapon" weapon away from the suspected "assailant's hand".
7. Cops for some reason won't notice (e.g via background check etc) that the zombie/ghost cop is not one of their own.
He would have previously belonged to the same precinct since they're in the same area.
8. Someone who checks online for information about a famous former actress for some reason will not come across any information that she previously died. You'd think one of the websites he looked at would have mentioned that information.
9. This movie likes to make stupid irrelevant plot twists that don't serve any purpose.
E.g revealing near the end of the movie that the child is the real evil spirit in the beacon and not that creepy looking man.
However a few minutes later that information is also irrelevant as it's discovered in another plot twist that EVERYONE in the apartment are ghost zombie things and they're all evil.
10. That we were left scratching our heads on why Teri Polo took this role.
11. That the one person who is an expert on the paranormal always gets killed.
12. It's better to die by being shot by dumb trigger happy cop because you don't look like a zombie at the end.
Well, *beep* me gently with a chainsaw. Do I look like Mother Theresa?
1. That people who commit suicide are not tortured souls deserving of every sympathy and aid, but rather monsters who exude evil and continue to exist only to trap others in their agony.
2. That couples who experience the unspeakable anguish of losing a child will always sink further into the quicksands of pain, no matter how much they try to rebuild their lives.
3. That the cute guy down the hall will always turn out to be a zombie. (Which might actually have some basis in reality.)
4. As stated by another poster, that the engaging ancillary character who is there to explain the logic of the plot will die horribly and without mercy. "Will I get to come back? No, son, you're just gonna die." How many other examples can you remember?
someone already screwed up the numbering.
17. The makers of this film can't decide whether the undead are ghosts, aliens or zombies so they decided to just combine them.
18. A guy gets killed by alien-ghost-zombie hybrid and asks if he can turn into one of them.
99. That all of the above posters are not witty at all.
