I absolutely hated the latest Halloween movie because of that. Oh a rural American town has a serial killer problem? Let's go out with baseball bats and hockey sticks. Motherfucker people go out with automatic rifles when an unknown car does a U turn using their driveway.
I'd like to see a horror film where the the generic killer navigates a small town that's had its locals form into a militia under homegrown martial law, and the killer actually thrives in the paranoia that comes from it.

Oh shit, that sounds pretty cool actually
There's something of a character and chapter like that in Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson. It's a good book otherwise, too.
