Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
Depending on your definition of entertaining, as the family is in no condition to make jokes. Also, the killer’s characters are never explored or given much depth except in the remote scene, while the kid gets a chance to try and be a hero, the father experiences the complete loss of his rank in the family and delivers a Tear Jerker line before his wife tries to escape, and the mother is a surprisingly strong yet still helpless hero.
Tear Jerker: Georgie is shot dead and the killers care only because that made a dent in the rules of their sick game. They leave politely, and then a long scene of Leave the Camera Running starts. The complete silence gives the parents, and, more importantly, the audience, a chance to digest what happened. The father breaks down in tears, the wife tries to console him... This becomes truly heartbreaking as just before she escapes he asks her not to hate him, and she comes back to give him a tearful kiss and tell him she loves him. It gets worse: the killers, who were lurking outside, catch her and bring her back to the house.
