To be fair, Michael Myers is supposed to be at least slightly inhuman. Same with Jason Vorhees or Freddy Kruger.
Ghostface is literally just a dude.
Well yeah but then they should explore that. I don't want to see a couple hillbillies try to beat Myers to death using baseball bats and kitchen knives only for him to slash them all.
I'm fine with inhuman as long as everyone else acts like they have half a brain. That's why that movie is rated like shit.
This trope (the baddie is down, let's run away) has frustrated the heck out of me for as long as I can remember. If I was facing a murderous loon and I had successfully taken them down, I would be making sure they don't get back up again. That would be reasonable force against someone trying to kill you, surely.
