Aversions aren't examples. Disambig.


* DaylightHorror: The first few signs that something is wrong (like several hundred birds suddenly dropping dead from the sky) occur during daylight, and the final abductions (Riley, his sister Jillian and some poor deputy) all occur long after dawn.



* HillbillyHorrors: Averted; while it's in the right region of the South, local cabin-dweller Sean is reluctantly helpful--the ''real'' threat comes from hostile aliens.

Clarification needed: if it's just broken bones and nothing else, it's not Body Horror


* BodyHorror: Katie's and Sean's abductions (the only two shown with any clarity) involve a ''lot'' of breaking bones.

* HellIsThatNoise: The low-pitched horn that seems to accompany alien activity, and the screams of the aliens themselves.
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
Misuse. It\'s Genre Savvy, not just \"savvy\".


* GenreSavvy: Sean, despite being a stereotypical hillbilly, is smart enough to spot that when visual distortions appear on the video camera, it's a sign the aliens are probably near, and so tells the kid to call out as soon as he sees it start to happen again.
