About this listen
Final Girls Club revisits John Carpenter’s Halloween (1978), the low-budget indie that carved the path for modern slasher cinema. We break down how this film gave us both the unstoppable masked boogeyman and the original Final Girl: Laurie Strode.
Inspired by Carol J. Clover’s Men, Women, and Chain Saws, we trace the birth of the “Final Girl” and what makes her endure, her awareness, resilience, and sharp instincts, and how each of us can channel our own inner Final Girl.
