Final girl trope
SPOILERS
ok so this is something I wanted to talk about in horror and slasher movies recently coming out....I saw the web series Something Very Bad is going to happen and I honestly did not like the ending because the girl actually got the ending she wanted of not marrying....it's not just this...slasher films like Scream 7 Halloween and TCM...all these movies and shows somehow portray a badass final girl who usually gets her friends killed and all...it's just very repeated....I am tired of seeing femme fatales always surviving which obviously they deserve in the show but I feel like the cast should be diversified and given equal opportunities at least somewhere....I feel it's just so repeated....bad decisions are often made by such characters and I feel they get everything they want....because if I talk specifically of the show itself I feel like the girl carried the curse...she was obviously marrying for the sake of survival and finally got to be in the same page as the groom at the end and yes the groom f\*cked up right at the end which had devastating consequences....I feel like all the development of loving she got instantly disappeared and she reverted back to her original personality which kinda takes from the show for me....all this just to give her this badass ending which honestly is also the case with almost all slashers nowadays....I feel that everything happening to the others because of the final girl in the movies and shows is caused by her and they get off with less repercussions and more of that cold detached personalities you see people like Sidney Prescott get....no genuine person who just cares and is a good moral support and heart of the group ever gets an happy ending because of a single mistake....I am not good with words but I hope I made sense in what I am trying to say here and hopefully people notice that there's a pattern....I want cast in movies to be developed and given equal importance and hopefully get developed as the time progresses....I hope I made sense
