The Final Girl in Horror Movies

February has now drawn to a close, extra day and all, which means the end of ‘Women in Horror’ month. To celebrate, or commiserate, the end here is an interesting round table discussion about the final girl trope in horror movies, “To Just Survive as the Final Girl Is Not Victory”, which was published on FourThreeFilm.com. It’s an interesting look at the weaknesses of the Final Girl in these narratives from a feminist point of view.
