Your typical teen-aged horror flick follows the same formula:
1. A murder occurs at some location many years ago.
2. Next, we move to the present time where a bunch of oversexed teenagers whose sex drives are inversely proportional to their intelligence, decide to party at that same location.
3. One by one, the teenagers meets a violent death.
4. The situation gets really horrifying, so horrifying, in fact, that the remaining teenagers decide that perhaps it might be a good idea to re-frame from the sex and the booze and try to survive the horrifying ordeal.
5. Because nobody has thought of simply jumping into his/her/the parent's car and simply vacating the premises as fast as possible, the casualty count of beheaded teenagers, continues to increase, until...
6. A lone surviver, usually a female, emerges, alive, but totally out of her mind.
KILLER INSTINCT pretty much follows this same formula, but with a few twists and turns that actually make this movie one of the better horror flicks.
For starters, the insane asylum was not haunted nor was there any "Jason"-like predators who allegedly return to the scene of the crime on the anniversary of whatever took place. The asylum was closed down but not abandoned. And the mysterious malicious person who remained hidden, closed the windows and locked all the doors before the body count takes place. When it became apparent that something was wrong, the teenagers actually decided that the sex and the booze would have to wait. First thing on the agenda was to get the hell out of that asylum, easier said than done.
the movie did not end with a lone survivor. It ended with a shocking proposal.
