Episode 32: Subverting "The Final Girls"

May 23, 2016 / Dawn Humphrey

Jen and Dawn look back at the 2015 gem, The Final Girls, which does what so many other movies fail to do: subvert the traditional final girl trope while being the perfect example of the final girl trope. Cliches that aren't as shallow as you think, a plot that keeps moving whether the characters want it to or not and Dawn's desperate attempt to keep at least one damn plot point a secret for the audience made for a fun chat.

Thanks always to The Shape for the intro/outro music.
