The Final Girl Support Group by Grady Hendrix
3.0
I really thought that this would be right up my alley.
<i>The Final Girl Support Group</i> is based off the old school slasher movies, featuring each final girl from titles such as <i>Friday the 13th</i>, <i>Halloween</i>, <i>Nightmare on Elm Street</i>, <i>The Texas Chainsaw Massacre</i>, and <i>Scream</i>.
Well, based is putting it lightly. These girls have the exact same backgrounds as their movie counterparts, and even get their own movie franchises (even the horrid <i>Jason X</i> is mentioned). While I appreciated the references, it would have been nice for some originality instead of complete copies. Or, at the very least, the girls getting movie franchises could have been left out to make it feel more realistic.
I was hoping for a slasher type, but this fits more along the mystery/thriller vibes.
