The Boomers might have created her but boy, howdy, what has happened to her since! In Part 2 of our conversation on The Final Girl trope in slasher movies, we interrogate many of the ways more recent filmmakers have taken the fundamental trope and transformed, expanded and extrapolated it in wildly entertaining ways.
If you haven't watched Jennifer's Body, The Final Girls, Ready or Not, or The Menu -- or if you haven't watched all of them -- you're missing out on imaginative takes on The Final Girl. Find out why as our conversation continues. And if you haven't done so yet, listen to Part 1 because we love it when our download numbers grow!
Grace Todd and David Timberline are your tour guides through this ongoing investigation of cultural artifacts from our collective recent past with a unique intergenerational spin. We're convinced you'll have a great time listening to Convince Me I Care.
