1. Don't ever get in the car unless you check the back seat and the trunk too.
2. Don't have sex with your love interest.
3. Always push the black guy, the blonde girl and/or minority individual infront of the killer while you get away.
4. Don't taunt the killer.
5. Building on number three, never let any of those three take charge of the situation - they will fuck you over everytime. Killers have an affinity for smelling them out, anywhere.
6. And always keep in mind, the virgin will always live/be victorious. Keep them close, and keep them content in your company.
Pretty much the fundamental rule to most slasher films. In zombie/apocalypse movies? White military/cop guy, stick with him, provided he plays the protector/father figure role (otherwise, he might just be attempting to rape you at some point, like all middle/old aged men like to in horror films). He has infinity ammo, and typically plot armor/biology. Be cautious around the black military/cop guy, he has a tendency to try and lone man hero the horde of baddies breaching your shelter/refuge..
