movie trailer: The Final Girls

[orangerful]

rhoda_rants - I feel like this is a movie both you and I would enjoy (or maybe that is just my massive girlcrush on Taissa Farmiga talking).

I'm hoping this is as much fun as Cabin in the Woods. I'm already sold on the cast.

I really hope they didn't give it all away in the trailer!

Oh, there's another Final Girl movie. Okay. The stream of squee on my Twitter feed makes a lot more sense now. See, I keep thinking it's this one, which looked kind of awful, and I couldn't figure out why everyone was getting so excited over it. Completely different, clearly, heh.

oh god why do i know this

whoa yeah that does not look good at all...at least, the trailer wasn't very good. Reminded me a lot of the "Homecoming" episode of Buffy when they are running around, fighting in their fancy dresses.

I HATE when Hollywood has two movies with the same name. In this day and age, how is it NO ONE caught that before the release???

I guess the S on the end of your one was enough to make them say, "See, it's a totally different title!" or something.

The thing is they're both meta-narratives. We seem to be getting inundated with those lately. The first was probably Scream, although I'm not sure about that, which is the movie I'm reminded of most from the trailer here. They can be awesome, like Cabin in the Woods and Detention, but I really hope this isn't turning into the next horror trend. The trope is in the title. That's either a good sign, or a really really bad one.
