Final Girl Phenoms
It’s nearly Halloween, and while Shauna and Olivia have thought out their costumes – sexy Freddy Krueger and Sexy Ghostface – but Nicole still needs some ideas. The Junkies vow to each try on a bald cap, a la Dr. Evil, but to share the same one, a la The Sisterhood of the Traveling Bald Cap. Somehow they make it make sense. On a more serious note, the Junkies then talk about the Final Girl and Scream Queen horror tropes, the symbolic and cultural influence of these horror heroes, and list some of the more iconic examples from horror film history. Finally, Nicole, Olivia and Shauna all put themselves in the cinematic universe of a horror franchise and describe their plans to be the last girl standing to deliver a killer last line at the end of the film.
