Aries, you'd be the stubborn yet desperate survivor. You have incredible drive and are willing to do anything if it means getting out alive, but this also causes you to act rashly, often butting heads with other members of your group as you lean towards choices others might not make so willingly.

This also means you're not thinking everything through as well as you should, leading you to do something impulsive that probably gets you killed. You had the heart of a survivor but not the mind of one.

Taurus would be all about strategy. They'll share that same passionate will to live that Aries does, but they'll take more time with it, wanting to move a little bit slower to ensure everyone makes it out safely.

That being said, you don't take it super well when someone pushes against your ideas, as you're convinced you have the best plan. Even if others don't agree, you're going to go ahead with your own idea anyway, even if it means going by yourself. It's this unwillingness to adapt that will get you killed in the end.

Gemini, you're going to be entirely self-serving during this whole ordeal. Sure, you care about others, but you care about yourself the most and are willing to leave people behind if it means you make it out alive.

ADVERTISEMENT

This slots you in a potential backstabber role. You want others' support at the beginning so you can be carried partially through this ordeal, but as soon as it gets down to it, you'll be sprinting ahead and leaving your crew in the dust. Whether or not you do make it out alive, well... karma will be the judge of that.

Oh, Cancer, your intentions are so pure, but they will not help you survive. You're so concerned with keeping everyone else safe that you put yourself at risk more than once, each time coming closer and closer to being caught until the killer finally reaches you.

ADVERTISEMENT

You'll want to try to understand the killer's motives, why they're doing these things to you, but your focus is misplaced. You'll let your guard down before you're fully safe to, and this will be your downfall.

Playing true to your usual love of the spotlight, you're going to play the role of the hero, Leo. You're going to be leading the charge, saving as many people as you can but also being realistic about when a sacrifice will be necessary or when someone will need to be left behind as they're beyond saving.

ADVERTISEMENT

You're not afraid to start fights and piss some people off if it means quicker decisions in a high-stakes scenario. You have a bigger chance of making it out alive compared to some other signs, but there's never a guarantee when a killer is on the loose.

Virgo will be the most grounded member of the survivor group, even more so than leader Leo. You'll keep the most level head and have the most rational thoughts and plans, but remember, rationality doesn't always work in your favor when there's someone hunting you down.

ADVERTISEMENT

You'll want to help so much more than you probably should, and that could just be what does you in. You're so convinced everyone can make it out alive if you just make the right decisions, but little do you know you were already doomed from the start. This is a horror movie, after all.

I'm very sorry to tell you this, Libra, but you will be the first to die.

You're not so much the comic relief as you are the charismatic, lovable glue of the group, the character designed to be liked so we can al gasp in shock when you're the first kill of the movie, kickstarting the rest of the events to follow. You'll be remembered well, Libra, but you will have to be the first to kick it.

Many people might think Scorpio is the obvious killer, but they're not. They're pretty close, though.

ADVERTISEMENT

They're either the newest member of the group, someone people don't know very well yet, or they're the coldest, perhaps having been in a fight with our protagonist in the past that creates evident tension. You won't be very well-liked, but you'll gain some sympathy by the end of the movie once the truth is revealed, and the best news of all is that you're slated to survive.

Every slasher movie, especially classic ones, has the one group member who's known for being a little... promiscuous. Sagittarius, you're the one known for sleeping around, for being a little opportunistic, giving in to vices even when you really shouldn't.

ADVERTISEMENT

This, of course, means you're almost certainly going to die. Probably second, some time early on, as death is a very common punishment for 'sinful acts' in slasher flics. You'll look good the whole time, though, if that's any consolation.

Alright, Capricorn. You're not a token group member, you're not a deus ex machina-type hero that saves the day, you're not an investigative side character. You're the killer.

ADVERTISEMENT

Your motivations vary. Maybe you're a supernatural being taking revenge on kids ruining your home, maybe you're a member of the group who has a secret animosity for each of your friends, or maybe you're someone who's been wronged and is taking vengeance on anyone you can find. No matter what it is, it's dramatic, it's over the top, it's exactly what we want from a slasher movie killer.

Aquarius, you're the true comedic relief of the group. You cope with stress via jokes, which does help relieve some of the tension and fear. You're well-loved by your peers, and though, in the moment, you might face a lot of eye rolls or annoyed expressions, your presence is valued.

ADVERTISEMENT

It's unlikely you'll be making it to the end, though. In fact, the killer will probably have some quippy one-liner about you when they kill you, your comedy will be the death of you.

Pisces

Pisces fits into the role of the innocent one, the damsel in distress, the helpless one who needs to be dragged through every encounter. When fight or flight kicks in, you freeze, and if it weren't for your friends, you'd have been killed early on.

There's a chance you'll develop some bite as the movie goes on, culminating in one big blow against the killer that incapacitates them or saves someone else, showing off how much courage you've gained. You'll probably make it out alive, too, but not unchanged.
