The Final Girls 2015

A young woman grieving the loss of her mother is pulled into the 1980's slasher flick.

Could have used more blood and nudity for that authentic 80's slasher feel, however it still managed to have fun with the concept well giving us a bittersweet "mother"/daughter story between Malin Ackerman and Taissa Farmiga.

The whole cast is strong and has a blast with the material standouts include Farmiga, Ackerman, Alia Shawkat (Maeby on Aressted Development) as the best friend, Thomas Middleditch as a Superfan of slasher flicks, Alexander Ludwig (aka Bjorn Ironside from Vikings), Angela Trimbur as the "Fun" counsellor.

There was talk of a sequel and for what its worth I'd watch it.
