Very not even a spoiler, just an observation.

Honest to God, this town would be nothing but Lovercraftian sort-of-plants, eldritch spider-demons, and random squirming horror-squelch without Joyce paying very close attention to How To Survive a Horror Sequel, including but not limited to always assuming that weird shit going down pretty much always equals evil that must be stopped like now, thanks.

Magnets: *fall*
Joyce: EVIL AFOOT
Everyone: Wait...
Joyce: Were you not here for the prequels? EVIL. A. FOOT.
Evil: Yeah, she's right. Totally evil afooting here.

Same for Nancy, whose instinctive reaction to evil is to go for the nearest gun and shoot until she's out of bullets and fucks to give. Someone else have a gun? Give her the gun; she's going to get it from you one way or another, make it easy on yourself.

Honorable mention to Steve, who is generally left to assure the survival of random genius under-fourteens (and now also the random genius lesbian) and just rolls with that shit. Russians, underground horror-bunkers, demon squelch-spiders, mind-control drugs, whatever, he's all in.

(We also now know he's scrolling through his mental Rolodex for a girl worthy of Robin and probably working out a weirdly endearing plan to set them up and is ready for midnight calls from Robin for advice on how to seal the deal. I have to admit, when Robin's first choice is a girl who sings like a muppet, she needs the help. Pick her someone better, Steve.)

That's why he goes bad, you know -- all the good people hit him on the head or try to shoot him and constantly mistrust him, while there's this vast cohort of minions saying, We wouldn't hurt you, Lex, and we'll give you power and greatness and oh so much sex...
Wow. That was scary. Lex is like Jesus in the desert.

Obi-Wan has a sort of desperate, pathetic patience in this movie. You can just see it in his eyes: "My padawan is a psychopath, and no one will believe me; I'm barely keeping him under control and expect to wake up any night now to find him standing over my bed with a knife!"

It's weird, after you get used to the affection you get from a rabbit, it's like any other BDSM relationship. Only without the sex and hot chicks in leather corsets wielding floggers. You'll grow to like it.

I do love thatJoyce immediately jumps to something big and evil is happening, let's go stop it now.

Also, I love Steve. I love that he is enthusiastically friends with these weird kids and he will totally roll with whatever, and that never having won a fight is not enough to put him off trying to win the next one.

And he would totally set Robin up and try to help her. Man, I would love to see that.

Joyce isn't taking annnnny risks here.

Also, I love Steve. I love that he is enthusiastically friends with these weird kids and he will totally roll with whatever, and that never having won a fight is not enough to put him off trying to win the next one.'

Doesn't even hesitate, just picks up the nearest bludgeoning item and goes to town.

Steve is a knight who is kind of bad at the 'fighting' part. Boy needs to acknowledge reality and use the hiatus for some martial arts classes.

And he would totally set Robin up and try to help her. Man, I would love to see that.

She is totally going to call at eleven at night and be like "STEVE HOW DO I GET A BRA OFF?"

Steve: ...you wear them.

Robin: SHE IS REALLY HOT STEVE I CANNOT REMEMBER FINGERS WORKING.

Steve: *sighs and sits up* Right, okay.

OMG, yes, that is absolute going to happen!
