"Home Alone on steroids"

Films: You're Next (2011)

Alias: Craig (Lamb Face), Dave (Tiger Face), and Tom (Fox Face)

Type: Natural

Location: Civilized Area

Height/Weight: That of average humans.

Affiliation: Evil

Summary: It's that kind of premise again. A family trapped like animals in their own house, at the mercy of a gang of psychotic killers out for blood. Only...things aren't exactly going to play out as the victims, or even the killers, expect.

History: In truth, this trio of masked killers was hired by Crispian Davidson, who was intent on getting his hands on the family fortune belonging to his girlfriend Erin. With the help of his younger brother Felix and a girl named Zee, they and the killers got off to a good start in slaughtering the family. But they didn't count on Erin being raised in a survivalist compound in Australia. And one by one, the killers realize that their minutes on the Earth are numbered themselves...

Notable Kills: Nothing special.

Final Fate: Erin eventually dispatches all of the killers and those who hired them in brutal fashion, ensuring their whole plan has failed. While there is a chance she might get framed for this whole mess, there's just as much evidence to the contrary.

Powers/Abilities: None.

Weakness: Anything conventional.

Scariness Factor: 3-They are a deadly force, sure, but you can tell that these killers are somewhat amateur at their jobs. They constantly get hurt, they're being guided by a greedy idiot, and it just so happens that the family they targeted had a bombshell of a daughter waiting to strike. If you're going to go hunting folks, have some experience.

Trivia: -Tiger Face was actually played by this film's writer, Simon Barrett.

-Speaking of Barrett, he was also a lead writer for "V/H/S", a particularly notable found-footage horror anthology film that spawned a number of sequels.

A simple message. Think you can follow it?

Real or not, this is the perfect way to end a sitcom like this.

"I huffed and I puffed and I blew myself in."
"DON'T TELL ME HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE!"


"Meet my new friend. He's the quiet type."
No thanks. I think we'll play Monopoly instead.


This lamb has another idea for slaughter.
Seton Academy would like a word with you.
