It seems common sense is in short supply when it comes to horror movies. That\u2019s not necessarily a bad thing, but there is a fine line between dumb, endearing characters and ones that are so stupid you\u2019re surprised they\u2019re capable of breathing. What\u2019s arguably more interesting is when characters use their brains to combat the horrors beyond their comprehension. So, with that in mind, we thought it\u2019d be a good time to celebrate these examples of good writing with 10 of the best horror movies where characters use common sense.<\/p>\n
Alien (1979)<\/h2>\n\n![\"ellen](\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/alien-1979.jpg?resize=1000%2C563\")
<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nIn the blackness of space, the Nostromo picks up a distress signal, and it\u2019s the crew\u2019s job to check things out. That\u2019s just asking for a hostile alien to board the ship and board the ship it does before Ripley can warn the others that the signal was a warning, not a call for help. Regardless, Ripley is a bastion of resourcefulness and common sense, consistently making smart decisions to keep herself alive.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s kind of funny is that the movie could have ended within minutes if Ash hadn\u2019t ignored Ripley\u2019s order to leave the infected Kane outside the ship. What unfolds is the birth of the Xenomorph, which quietly and systematically kills the remaining crew, but not Ripley; the Xenomorph is cunning, but Ripley is far more dangerous.<\/p>\n
Get Out (2017)<\/h2>\n\n![\"chris](\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/get-out-2017.jpg?resize=1000%2C563\")
<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nChris Washington and his girlfriend Rose are a seemingly happy couple in Get Out, but soon her parents are calling after her to pay a visit. Right off the bat, there\u2019s a bit of hesitation from Chris, which prompts him to ask a question that frames the entirety of the film: \u201cDo they know I\u2019m black?\u201d<\/p>\n
Of course Rose\u2019s parents know, including every white attendee at the party they\u2019re throwing; in fact, he\u2019s the main attraction, but by the time he finds an opening to leave, he\u2019s trapped. It\u2019s through Chris\u2019 intelligence and ingenuity that he\u2019s able to not only escape, but defend himself from those that tried to enslave his mind and body.<\/p>\n
The Thing (1982)<\/h2>\n\n![\"rj](\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/the-thing-1982.jpg?resize=1000%2C563\")
<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nIn the middle of nowhere Antarctica, a group of American researchers soon find themselves amidst bullets, Norwegians, and a dog. Shortly after such an exciting start to the day, the Norwegians die, their helicopter is destroyed, and the dog is rescued. Unfortunately, had the Americans understood Norwegian, they would\u2019ve learned the dog was bad news.<\/p>\n
Beset by a shapeshifting alien, the American researchers quickly devise a variety of strategies and tactics to avoid being the alien\u2019s next host. They all keep their cool as best they can, but none better than MacReady. Despite not being a scientist himself, it\u2019s MacReady who discovers a clever way of exposing those who are infected.<\/p>\n
The Invisible Man (2020)<\/h2>\n\n![\"Cecelia](\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/the-invisible-man-2020.jpg?resize=1000%2C563\")
<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThe Invisible Man is a nail-biting experience from start to finish as we watch Cecelia descend into paranoid madness. Even after the fact, she can\u2019t help but feel his presence everywhere, like he\u2019ll show up at any moment. You probably would too if you had an ex that was as controlling and abusive as hers.<\/p>\n
Strangely enough, it\u2019s Cecelia\u2019s trauma that helps rebuild what was barely a person to begin with into a confident, cunning, and incredibly resourceful woman who uses her past experience to gain the upperhand despite the imbalance of power. Best of all, she isn\u2019t afraid to stoop to her enemy\u2019s level if it means getting a few hits in.<\/p>\n
The Shining (1980)<\/h2>\n\n![\"wendy](\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/the-shining-1980.jpg?resize=1000%2C563\")
<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nJack Torrance and his wife Wendy are off to look after the Overlook Hotel with their young son, Danny. It\u2019s an opportunity to spend quality time with one another and for Jack to get some writing done. Over time, Jack grows ever more aggressive, cold, and distant\u2014and Wendy isn\u2019t having any of that.<\/p>\n
At first, Wendy comes off as seemingly helpless and quite timid, but her perception is surprisingly sharp. It\u2019s that, coupled with her parental instincts, that ultimately save her and Danny\u2019s life. Who stood up to her intimidating husband? Wendy. Who locked him away? Wendy. She even finds a working snow machine as a getaway vehicle.<\/p>\n
Of course, Danny\u2019s intelligence shouldn\u2019t be understated, either. It\u2019s his quick thinking and trickery in the maze that seals his father\u2019s fate.<\/p>\n
You\u2019re Next (2011)<\/h2>\n\n![\"erin](\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/youre-next-2011.jpg?resize=1000%2C563\")
<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nFamily gatherings are meant to be fun, relaxing, and wholesome\u2014especially when everyone attending hasn\u2019t seen each other in a while. Naturally, masked assailants crash the party, turning what should have been a quiet evening into a fight for survival. What they least expected was someone who was hiding a particular set of skills.<\/p>\n
When the opportunity presents itself, Erin reveals she didn\u2019t have a normal childhood considering she grew up in a survivalist compound. With her expertise, she quickly dispatches her would-be assailants, bringing a whole new meaning to the phrase \u201cI\u2019m not trapped in here with you; you\u2019re trapped in her with me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Silence of the Lambs (1991)<\/h2>\n\n![\"clarice](\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/silence-of-the-lambs-1991.jpg?resize=1000%2C563\")
<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWith serial killer \u201cBuffalo Bill\u201d on the loose, the FBI bring in new blood, a trainee by the name of Clarice Starling. To understand what they\u2019re up against, Clarice needs information, and who better to gather such intel than from another serial killer like Hannibal Lecter?<\/p>\n
Hannibal isn\u2019t some deranged lunatic, but a highly intelligent and sophisticated individual\u2014a cannibal, but a genius nonetheless. Despite having an extensive vocabulary, Clarice is able to match him at every turn, even reading between the lines of his often very cryptic wording. It\u2019s that attentiveness to detail that she\u2019s able to piece together the info she needs to find Buffalo Bill and save his hostage from an untimely death.<\/p>\n
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)<\/h2>\n\n![\"seth,](\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/from-dusk-till-dawn-1996.jpg?resize=1000%2C563\")
<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWith the death of his wife still fresh, Jacob Fuller hits the road in his RV with his two kids, Scot and Kate on a much needed vacation. Unfortunately, this puts them on a collision course with the Gecko brothers, a pair of twisted killers. In an effort to get to Mexico, they hitch a ride with the Fuller family or feel the pain of a bullet.<\/p>\n
After they reach their destination, a strip club, what unfolds before them includes death and vampires, so they make the sensible decision to work together. Their ingenuity in creating effective weapons is very MacGyver, going as far as to stick a stake on the end of a drill and blessing water.<\/p>\n
Night of the Living Dead (1968)<\/h2>\n\n![\"ben](\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/night-of-the-living-dead-1968.jpg?resize=1000%2C572\")
<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nSay what you will about zombies these days, but they wouldn\u2019t have reached such prominence without the help of Night of the Living Dead. What better way to pave the road for today\u2019s horror flicks than a likable, intelligent, and level-headed character like Ben? We like to imagine we\u2019d be Ben in dire situations, when really we\u2019d be in the fetal position.<\/p>\n
In the movie, Ben is most certainly the de facto leader, and the only one who isn\u2019t shutting down. He keeps his cool, makes sound plans, and common sense decisions. Ben even goes as far as to risk his life in order to help a dying Karen by attempting to refuel his truck and drive off to safety. In the end, Ben is the only one to survive.<\/p>\n
A Quiet Place (2018)<\/h2>\n\n![\"marcus,](\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/a-quiet-place-2018.jpg?resize=1000%2C563\")
<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nImagine our world without the hustle and bustle of cars or the constant buzz of human-beings talking. Now toss in a hostile alien creature sensitive to noise, and what you get is A Quiet Place. Anyone still alive would have to drastically change their lives, and that\u2019s exactly what unfolds.<\/p>\n
Survivors are typically barefoot to quiet their footsteps with sand adding additional protection, and as a contingency plan, fireworks can be used as a distraction. Everyone in A Quiet Place has varying levels of common sense, but all share a baseline understanding that sound equals death\u2014even the beeps and boops from toys.<\/p>\n
With A Quiet Place being the last entry, it\u2019s time to close the book on the 10 best horror movies where characters use common sense. For more content like this, go find out the latest news on Scream 6\u2019s release date.

You\u2019re Next (2011)<\/h2>\n\n<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nFamily gatherings are meant to be fun, relaxing, and wholesome\u2014especially when everyone attending hasn\u2019t seen each other in a while. Naturally, masked assailants crash the party, turning what should have been a quiet evening into a fight for survival. What they least expected was someone who was hiding a particular set of skills.<\/p>\n
When the opportunity presents itself, Erin reveals she didn\u2019t have a normal childhood considering she grew up in a survivalist compound. With her expertise, she quickly dispatches her would-be assailants, bringing a whole new meaning to the phrase \u201cI\u2019m not trapped in here with you; you\u2019re trapped in her with me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Silence of the Lambs (1991)<\/h2>\n\n<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWith serial killer \u201cBuffalo Bill\u201d on the loose, the FBI bring in new blood, a trainee by the name of Clarice Starling. To understand what they\u2019re up against, Clarice needs information, and who better to gather such intel than from another serial killer like Hannibal Lecter?<\/p>\n
Hannibal isn\u2019t some deranged lunatic, but a highly intelligent and sophisticated individual\u2014a cannibal, but a genius nonetheless. Despite having an extensive vocabulary, Clarice is able to match him at every turn, even reading between the lines of his often very cryptic wording. It\u2019s that attentiveness to detail that she\u2019s able to piece together the info she needs to find Buffalo Bill and save his hostage from an untimely death.<\/p>\n
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)<\/h2>\n\n<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWith the death of his wife still fresh, Jacob Fuller hits the road in his RV with his two kids, Scot and Kate on a much needed vacation. Unfortunately, this puts them on a collision course with the Gecko brothers, a pair of twisted killers. In an effort to get to Mexico, they hitch a ride with the Fuller family or feel the pain of a bullet.<\/p>\n
After they reach their destination, a strip club, what unfolds before them includes death and vampires, so they make the sensible decision to work together. Their ingenuity in creating effective weapons is very MacGyver, going as far as to stick a stake on the end of a drill and blessing water.<\/p>\n
Night of the Living Dead (1968)<\/h2>\n\n<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nSay what you will about zombies these days, but they wouldn\u2019t have reached such prominence without the help of Night of the Living Dead. What better way to pave the road for today\u2019s horror flicks than a likable, intelligent, and level-headed character like Ben? We like to imagine we\u2019d be Ben in dire situations, when really we\u2019d be in the fetal position.<\/p>\n
In the movie, Ben is most certainly the de facto leader, and the only one who isn\u2019t shutting down. He keeps his cool, makes sound plans, and common sense decisions. Ben even goes as far as to risk his life in order to help a dying Karen by attempting to refuel his truck and drive off to safety. In the end, Ben is the only one to survive.<\/p>\n
A Quiet Place (2018)<\/h2>\n\n<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nImagine our world without the hustle and bustle of cars or the constant buzz of human-beings talking. Now toss in a hostile alien creature sensitive to noise, and what you get is A Quiet Place. Anyone still alive would have to drastically change their lives, and that\u2019s exactly what unfolds.<\/p>\n
Survivors are typically barefoot to quiet their footsteps with sand adding additional protection, and as a contingency plan, fireworks can be used as a distraction. Everyone in A Quiet Place has varying levels of common sense, but all share a baseline understanding that sound equals death\u2014even the beeps and boops from toys.<\/p>\n
With A Quiet Place being the last entry, it\u2019s time to close the book on the 10 best horror movies where characters use common sense.

If it\u2019s horror gaming you need, there\u2019s always three ways The Callisto Protocol nails the horror genre that might tickle your fancy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>The Invisible Man is a nail-biting experience from start to finish as we watch Cecelia descend into paranoid madness. Even after the fact, she can\u2019t help but feel his presence everywhere, like he\u2019ll show up at any moment. You probably would too if you had an ex that was as controlling and abusive as hers.<\/p>\n
Strangely enough, it\u2019s Cecelia\u2019s trauma that helps rebuild what was barely a person to begin with into a confident, cunning, and incredibly resourceful woman who uses her past experience to gain the upperhand despite the imbalance of power. Best of all, she isn\u2019t afraid to stoop to her enemy\u2019s level if it means getting a few hits in.<\/p>\n
The Shining (1980)<\/h2>\n\n<\/div>Image via IMDb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nJack Torrance and his wife Wendy are off to look after the Overlook Hotel with their young son, Danny. It\u2019s an opportunity to spend quality time with one another and for Jack to get some writing done. Over time, Jack grows ever more aggressive, cold, and distant\u2014and Wendy isn\u2019t having any of that.<\/p>\n
At first, Wendy comes off as seemingly helpless and quite timid, but her perception is surprisingly sharp. It\u2019s that, coupled with her parental instincts, that ultimately save her and Danny\u2019s life. Who stood up to her intimidating husband? Wendy. Who locked him away? Wendy. She even finds a working snow machine as a getaway vehicle.<\/p>\n
Of course, Danny\u2019s intelligence shouldn\u2019t be understated, either. It\u2019s his quick thinking and trickery in the maze that seals his father\u2019s fate.<\/p>\n
