While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Thought this was quite a nice change and different, People go into what is really Friday the 13th, and as they realize whats happening, they try to prevent what they know happens in the movie happening to them Has a good mix of comedy and slashing and will be enjoyable to anyone that likes movies like Friday 13th and Scream

Max and her friends are pulled into a an 80's camp horror movie. Stuck inside the movie, Max befriends the character played by her lost mother, fighting off the evil Billy to find the loop out of this slasher flick.This is a charming homage to 80's camp horror in gleaming colors. It features stylish music, lots of one-liners, and characters that are just clichéd enough to be both funny and believable. Despite not taking itself too seriously, THE FINAL GIRLS also manages to convey some genuine emotions and a heartfelt story about the loss of a mother. The movie has general appeal to a wide audience but you're more likely going to enjoy this one having seen a few slasher flicks before. In particular, there's numerous references to the original Friday THE 13TH. In being so meta about horror, THE FINAL GIRLS is quite comparable to CABIN IN THE WOODS—but it isn't nearly as gory.All in all, I can highly recommend this one.

Okay, so it's not THAT new – after all, you still have a killer running around hacking up a selection of good-looking American teens, but – hey – it's still better than most of the recent offerings. The premise kind of reminded me of (the much underrated) 'Last Action Hero' in as much as people from our 'real' world end up getting stuck in a movie. However, instead of being the 'comedy relief' to a much-loved Austrian mega-star, our hapless teens find themselves in the traditional middle-of-nowhere setting where they're at the mercy of a fictional masked killer (who bears no small resemblance to one Jason Voorhees).Therefore, like the 'Last Action Hero,' expect all the clichés and formulas from a horror/slasher movie to be pointed out along the way (not to mention the odd gruesome kill thrown in there).There are no real stand-out performances here as, despite being a reasonably original take, the character types are pretty much what you'd expect, i.e. the good girl, the trampy girl, the best friend and so on. However, this time round it's all a little more 'knowing' and at least they're aware of their own stereotypes.There are also a few touching moments in the script towards the end that you probably wouldn't expect from a film of this genre. These actually make a welcome break from the general quips and carnage.I wouldn't have watched this film based on either the cover or the title. I should have mentioned that the 'film within a film' is set in the eighties, therefore the cover art is all pretty 'retro' and I thought it just looked like another run-of-the-mill slasher flick. Don't let this put you off. It is definitely worth a watch, but what you get out of this will depend on your existing knowledge of the genre. The more you know about masked killers the more fun you'll have here. Luckily, I seem to know a lot about them, hence I had a blast with this film.

I went to watch this movie expecting very little, but not long after it started i could already see this wasn't going to be an ordinary slasher movie by any means! The movie transitions between comedy, drama and even action quite seamlessly, though make no mistake, this is most definitely a comedy! It also constantly avoids and follows several clichés, i didn't expect it to work so well but it did! The soundtrack is great and apart from a few things that could've been done a bit better there really wasn't much for me to complain here!It would be great if there was a sequel though, sadly, i doubt it, i can only hope!
