Monsters and Elevators

I find it unacceptable that when I push the close door button in our building's elevator, it still takes at least 14 seconds to close. 14 seconds isn't a long time. Unless you are being chased by a mad man or a monster or person with bad breath and BO and smelly feet. And then, you are just screwed. And it bothers me that no one seems to find this to be a problem. Does no one watch movies any more? Have we forgotten Sigorny Weaver in Aliens trying to get up to the platform? How many times have we seen a woman being chased down the hall and gets to the elevator and manages to get it closed just in time before the Evil Aggressor gets her?

So I'm just going to have to accept that should I find myself trying to escape aliens who are stalking me in our lobby by getting safely inside an elevator, I'm dead.
