The Final Girls kick off our month of Summer Screaming! In August, we’re talking about horror movies with summer vibes. What’s more summer than a summer camp of horror? The Final Girls is a meta-commentary of the horror movie genre, specifically the final girl trope. Five unsuspecting filmgoers are sucked into a campy horror movie they’re watching. What makes it more complicated is that our protagonist’s mom plays one of the characters in the movie. She, of course, has no memory of being her mom; she just wants to get laid at camp! Despite being a comedy, this movie has a surprisingly heart-felt story at the center of it. The reason why this is may surprise you.
