If you're a fan of horror films then you know that there are so many similarities between each one, especially those of the 80's and 90's, with many of the horror tropes becoming cliché over the years, whether it's something as simple as a jump scare or something that helps keep the story going such as parents not believing their teenagers because they're just "crazy kids pulling a prank". These can be seen throughout most of the classic horror films over the previous decades, but more so in the 'slasher' sub-genre.
