Loved it! They went through all of the slasher tropes brilliantly and it was fun that they borrowed heavily from Friday the 13th.

Better than most slasher movies, and much better than most slasher spoof / comedy renditions, and hugely better than many in the TSZDT 1000..
OK, nothing really new, but good fun

A very entertaining parody of horror movie tropes & clichés. I liked it.

The Final Girls is a fun dissection of the slasher genre, as five young people get pulled into a cheesy Friday the 13th clone called Camp Bloodbath and have to survive armed only with knowledge of the plot and horror movie tropes. Often clever if also a little wonky at times, the movie surprises by having some heart too. It could have been just a high concept horror comedy and been fine, but the stakes are more personal thanks to Taissa Farmiga's character having lost her mother, who plays a character in the movie. Is this really a chance to hang out with her mom again, or for that matter, to change the script and somehow resurrect her? Not that the movie ever takes itself too seriously. I'd put this on a double-bill with Happy Death Day and enjoy the wild ride.
