Genre Exposure: A Film Podcast
TV & Film
In this episode, we are joined by our first ever special guest: Chris the 4k Outlaw. Together we sit down to gush over our shared love of slasher films and dig in with his selection for this episode: The Final Girls from 2015. Jason weighs the film's PG-13 rating against the surprisingly emotional heart the film has while wondering what could have been. Dustin lays down some research on the enduring trope of the final girl. And while your regular hosts marvel on just how under the radar this film has gone, Chris details his own experience championing the movie when it first debuted. But before all that, we dish on our experience going to see Evil Dead Rise together and recount our history with the franchise. And so much more!
