And it sort of justifies why some of the teachers whom a bloodsoaked Zoe will try to warn about the danger, will assume sheвЂ™s just pranking them and continue teaching their classes. This accounts for the filmвЂ™s few mildly inspired ideas, such as a stairwell that one student has turned into a slip-n-slide, and a teacherвЂ™s breakroom filled to the ceiling with balloons, which will at least provide an unusual backdrop for some carnage later.
