{{quote|''"Iconic horror franchises always run the risk of devolving into unintentional self-satire. A lot of filmmakers figure they can just combat this head-on by acknowledging the fact openly (or as they say in the biz, "putting a lampshade on it"). But the fact that a lot of people think that ''Killer Axe Man 17'' is getting kind of stupid doesn't actually change if the film's writers point out that they know it's stupid. This acknowledgment just makes everything stupider."''|'''[[Cracked (Website).com|Cracked]]'s''', ''[http://www.cracked.com/article_18413_the-6-baffling-mistakes-every-horror-franchise-must-make_p1.html The 6 Baffling Mistakes Every Horror Franchise Must Make]''}}
