A new trailer has been released for the upcoming horror comedy The Final Girls, which revolves around a group of friends who unwittingly end up in an ’80s slasher flick. The film stars Taissa Farmiga, Malin Akerman, Nina Dobrev, Alexander Ludwig, Alia Shawkat, Thomas Middleditch, and Adam Devine, and is directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson (A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas).
A couple of weeks ago I caught a new movie called Final Girl and went into it thinking it was this film. I was sorely mistaken. Don’t get them mixed up or you might be in for a very bad time because this one looks like quite a lot of fun.
The Final Girls opens October 9th.
When Max (Taissa Farmiga) and her friends reluctantly attend a screening of “Camp Bloodbath,” an infamous ‘80s cult horror film that starred Max’s late mother (Malin Akerman), they are accidentally sucked into the silver screen. They soon realize they’re trapped inside the movie and must team up with the horny, regan-era idiot “Camp Bloodbath” counselors — including Max’s mom as the shy scream queen — to battle the film’s machete-wielding killer, Billy Murphy. Face to face with her mother for the first time in years, Max has a second chance not only to see her, but to save her, and with the help of her friends, get back home before Billy kills them all. Also starring Adam DeVine, Thomas Middleditch, Alia Shawkat, Angela Trimbur, with Alexander Ludwig and Nina Dobrev.
