Welcome to Camp Bloodbath! 🌲🪓👧 Continuing with our horror parody theme, we are covering the 2015 comedy ‘The Final Girls’ directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson.

In this episode we identify the recurring use of grief in horror, analyse the final girl trope and this film’s regrettable lack of engagement with Carol Clover’s original text, and debate the extent to which the trope effectively challenges gender norms/binaries.

Petition for someone to actually make Camp Bloodbath tho??
