Random Plot Holes That'll Ruin Your Favorite Horror Movies (28 items)

(#23) Urban Legend
- Film (1998)
Toward the end of Urban Legend, the crazy killer played by Rebecca Gayheart gets thrown out the front window on the second floor of a building. When the characters played by Jared Leto and Alicia Witt go out the front door, they don't notice that her body isn't there.
(#7) The People Under the Stairs
- Film (1991)
In Wes Craven's The People Under the Stairs, Man sprays the walls of the house in an attempt to kill Fool, Leroy, and Roach. When the police finally show up, their professionally trained eyes don't notice anything out of the ordinary like, say, bullet holes all over the walls.
(#28) Evil Dead II
- Film (1987)
Ash (Bruce Campbell) was the only survivor of the possessed woods and cabin in The Evil Dead. Sam Raimi's Evil Dead II is a parody of the first film and quasi sequel, but Ash doesn't seem to have any memory of the events in the first film as demonic problems arise in the same cabin with a new set of visitors. If your film is a demented remake of your first film, maybe the misleading title here wasn't the best idea.
(#27) Saw
- Film (2004)
At the end of Saw, Jigsaw is lying on the floor with a tape recorder in one hand and a gun in the other. The tape recorder is taken by the characters and played, leaving one hand empty. Jigsaw is right between the two characters and is playing dead, yet somehow he has a remote control at the end of the movie and depresses the button to shock Adam. Where the heck did this remote come from?
(#25) Gothika
- Film (2003)
The police forget to tape up the house of Miranda Grey (Halle Berry) in Gothika even though it was the scene of a crime. Earlier, the police searched and taped off her office, but for some reason they just didn't bother taping off her home.
(#21) Wrong Turn
- Film (2003)
One wrong turn the hillbilly horror flick Wrong Turn makes is when the surviving trio escape the burning wooden watchtower and escape onto the tree branches. With all that wood, the whole area should be ablaze, but the fire seems to just fade out as soon as the characters go out onto the tree branches as if the director yelled "cut!"
