'Good guys' not killing villains when they have the chance

Many people have died in horrible ways (and some have been raped) because that woman didn't let the guy torch the killers when they had the chance to do so, which annoyed me somewhat.

Authors of horror movie scripts, please stop writing such scenes. Just don't put such destructive, unreasonable villains in such situations if you're not going to let the "good guys" kill them off.

When there are monstrous villains in a movie, I mentally cheer whenever a "good guy" takes the opportunity to try destroy the brains and/or hearts, or the entire bodies, of said monstrous villains.

Well its a silly low budget film, but perhaps wanted to try and keep characters somewhat realistic.

In that situation no matter what the cannibals have done a normal and sane person couldn't just kill someone. It's easier said than done.

But five minutes later they are frenziedly stabbing someone to death. So not so difficult at all it seems.

I guess I'm not normal and sane then because I would have torched them in a heartbeat. After they killed four of my friends, there's no way in hell I'd let them live.

This is a THREADED message board. Please reply to the proper post!

The realistic thing would be to burn those f-ckers alive.

No one was asking Kenia to kill them herself, but they just killed a bunch of people, were impossible to reason with, and would be a massive threat if they escaped. It's straight up common sense to either kill them or let someone who's willing to kill them do it (I don't think that bitchy Asian girl would've hesitated for a second. In fact, just about everyone EXCEPT Kenia was for killing them. Kyle only backed down because she got involved. The other three girls wanted to incinerate them)

You actually believe they wouldn't, or anyone wouldn't have just thrown the lighter on them? They hung one friend till her head came off, ate one guy alive on a table, and had already killed the guy they were trying to meet up with, and another with a spike through his head.

I don't know a person in the world who wouldn't have torched them knowing there could be another one waiting to let them back out.

I consider myself a good, sane, law abiding Christian girl... And I would have killed those fools in a heartbeat if I got the chance. Just knowing they ate that guy alive would be good enough for me not even knowing the people they killed at the beginning of the movie.

Exactly my thoughts every day, but not in the movies, in real life, I don't get why we aren't killing all the rapists, criminals, bullies, violent thieves etc on their first offense, most of them go free just to eventually kill someone again etc. Soft laws are getting innocent people killed everyday.

I agree with all of that, and it's sad that it takes some people to experience that violence themselves before they wake up.
