Daylight Horror is no longer a trope, don't link it anywhere.
Deleted line(s) 28 (click to see context) :
* DaylightHorror: It starts off with a flashback of the killer chopping his mother up with an axe. The movie skips ahead forty years later and the first kill is a college student getting [[OffWithHisHead her head chopped off]] by a chainsaw in the middle of the quad on a day that's so sunny, the glare from the sun hides the killer's face. It's a very effective use of this trope.

Changed line(s) 8,9 (click to see context) from:
The film opens up at a house in UsefulNotes/{{Boston}} in 1942, where a little boy is shown completing his favourite jigsaw puzzle, which depicts a nude woman. His mother freaks out upon finding the thing, and her son proceeds to answer her reaction by hacking her up [[AnAxeToGrind with an axe]], and cuts the body to pieces. Feigning innocence, the boy manages to trick the police who barge in on the scene.
