His death was rather merciful compared to some of the others. Perhaps the demon had some level of admiration for Buddy's morally bankrupt code he lived by. Certainly wasn't his intelligence.

    The image of an on-fire Christine in that scene really stuck with me throughout the years. Kinda like the ultimate flame-paintjob come to life. Kudos to the stunt-driver BTW. IIRC he's interviewed on the DVD or BRD specials and he was basically driving blind in that scene while the car he was sitting in was on fire. And in the interview he made it sound like it was ... nothing. Like it was the same as taking the car out on a Sunday morning to get coffee.. :)

      Someone needs to start an 80s horror movie troupe list.
      Here's mine:
      If a girl is running through the woods in high heels, she's definitely about to trip, fall, and die.
      If a black character is still alive, the main character is safe.
      If two teenagers are making out in a car in the woods at night, it's game over for them.
      The killer isn't dead until the credits roll. And even then he's probably coming back.
      When a room full of teenagers grabs makeshift weapons, someone will absolutely grab the most useless thing in the room.
      When a group decides to barricade the doors and windows, there will always be a large supply of hammers, boards, and nails located in the house. And they will always nail them up at weirdly random angles.
      Once they're safe inside, the one thing they need in order to survive is located in the car they parked unnecessarily far away, but still in plain sight.
      All teenagers look 35 years old.
      There are probably no bicycles in the zombie apocalypse because bicycles would solve 99% of the problems in the zombie apocalypse.

    In every movie where the protagonist is school aged, one of the bad guys is always a school bully who always dies a horrible death near the end. When you think about it, all horror and action movies are about revenge. That’s why there is an audience for this plot because we in real life have our own bully that we wish would suffer.

      One. All the others had either died very young, been murdered or killed themselves using drugs or drink.
      One. He's still quite the piece of work.
      Oh, of the non-bullies? Coming up on our 50th Reunion, for my age group, one would expect one in thirteen to be dead. And that's about right. The bullies? 95% death rate.
      Nobody is shedding any tears for them. And, we didn't even have a Christine to settle the scores.

      @@ethelryan257 The best revenge is to live longer, and to be more wealthy, professionally successful, and happy than your bullies. I think the high school reunions have an underlying purpose of seeing it for yourself if you have had your revenge. Revenge is a dish best served cold. Your suffering from these bullies only lasts a few years, but whatever misfortunes the bullies suffer afterward last decades - if they live that long. As much as the pain I suffered from these bullies, as an adult, I feel bad for them by the same degree knowing why they acted the way they did. As adults, we victims realize the sadism of bullies is just a coping mechanism they had used to hide a much deeper pain. Basically bullies secretly suffer more than the pain they inflict on others.

      Agreed. Not really sure why they cut Vandenberg's death as it leaves an abrupt edit in the scene. Sure, we don't really need to see his death, but why put the hatchet to the middle of a filmed scene? Doesn't make any sense to me.
      Also agree about the Dennis/Leigh scenes at the drive in. Though I swear I've seen that scene in a TV version a hundred years ago. But it makes sense. Why would Arnie go to Darnell's just because somebody scratched "Darnells Tonight" in his paint? No, it's the final showdown. The enemy has been chosen; Denis merely set the location.
