I stumbled upon "Tragedy Girls" solely for the reason that I picked it up as it looked like a horror movie. I didn't even bother reading the synopsis for the movie, I just decided to watch it. So I had no clue about the movie what it was about or who was in it. All that mattered was the fact that it was a horror movie.

Right, well first of all I must say that "Tragedy Girl" is definitely a movie that is quite well worth sitting down to watch. So if you have the chance, do so. Take the time to watch it, because it is an entertaining movie with a dark, morbid and somewhat funny story to tale.

The movie's storyline was rather unique, bizarre in a way, but entertaining nonetheless. And I think there were a lot of good aspects to the movie that were essentially brought to closure and the movie did come full circle towards the ending.

There is a fair amount of dark humor in the movie, that is somewhat gory and count be considered morbid by some. But, keep in mind, it is a movie meant to entertain. And I was definitely entertained by the movie from the very beginning up to the end of the movie.

They had a good ensemble of casted actors and actresses to perform in the movie. I must admit that I found it to be Alexandra Shipp - playing McKayla Hooper - whom carried the most of the movie with her on-screen charisma and her wonderful acting performance. I didn't really care much for the other lead actress Brianna Hildebrand - playing Sadie Cunningham. Sure, she acted well enough, but the character was just annoying. I was genuinely surprised and pleased to see Kevin Durand in this movie, and he had such a wonderful role. Just a real shame that he wasn't given a lot more on-screen time.

There are some very hilarious moments throughout the course of "Tragedy Girls", alongside with some fairly bloody, brutal and grotesque death scenes. Was it enjoyable to watch? You betcha...

"Tragedy Girls" was a real nice surprise and a very entertaining movie. If enjoy dark horror comedies, then you definitely owe it to yourself to sit down to watch "Tragedy Girls".

This is a quirky light hearted take on the slasher genre and follows two self obsessed psycopaths who are 2 girls still in high school. They are superficial and spend time on their phones fishing for likes and attention while also commiting many murders within the high school community.

It was quite refreshing and the 2 leads did a good job of playing annoyingly self obsessed teens. The rest of the cast do a good job as well and its well made all round including the gruesome deaths !!

Don't expect anything more than a slasher flick with a difference and enjoy it for what it is #betterthanmostslasherfilms

I must say that I liked this one. The story is rather simple and easy to follow, it's about two girls going online with their horror show but quickly this turns wrong and real killings are happening.

Is it scary, oh no not at all everybody can watch it but what do makes it great for the genre buffs is the fact that it's rather all gory when the slaughtering goes on. Yes, there some will turn their face away.

Also stated as a comedy I can understand that some things are a bit funny but for me it wasn't that funny at all. Therefor the jokes are made for teens, more about pranks.

At the end the flick loses it a bit but picks up toward the end. Not bad at all.

Sometimes a movie seems to be too clever for its own good. That doesn't mean you can't have fun with this. No matter how you watch and no matter how you feel about the girls themself. It is supposed to be funny and not animate imitators. Which wouldn't work anyway, because in real life the charade would be over in no time.

But this is also supposed to be a sort of stab at current society and celebrity status and the obsession of some with it. Actually it tries to juggle and play with too many subjects while trying to be as funny as possible. Not everything works out, but it's silly attitude can make things feel lighter than they actually are. So you can enjoy this and a one time viewing is sufficient ... maybe if you are in the right mind set, you will even enjoy this more than others did. Whatever the case, don't expect too much, put morality aside and you'll have a good time

"Tragedy Girls" is an odd and unpleasant movie. The characters are too repulsive to care about, but you could at least laugh at them, but the movie doesn't seem to want us to do that. Are we supposed to be impressed by them? Regard them as heroes? Hope for their downfall? What?

The violence in the movie is so ridiculous and over-the-top that it definitely seems to fit the mould of a horror comedy. But there's no other comedy in it. The plot would have been an almost ideal set-up for a satire of today's social media obsessed youth, but the movie avoids any and all opportunities for social commentary.

It keeps you at arm's length from its characters - which will probably be okay with you, honestly - but then at the end seems to expect you to care for them. I didn't.

The ending would be quite bleak in a movie with a social conscience, but this movie has none, so it's more confusing than anything.

The plot: two teenage girls have a blog called "Tragedy Girls" in which they report on local tragedies and are dying for likes - as are, apparently, the people they write about. At the film's beginning, they set-up a poor (?) ugly teenage boy to meet his demise at the hands of a local slasher, and inexplicably take the slasher hostage. Apparently they have an empty warehouse somewhere all to themselves where they can detain serial killers and cut up bodies and nobody knows about it. They don't get many more likes from these escapades so they start killing people themselves.

That is basically it. Aside from a few creative death scenes - which, admittedly, use the horror-comedy trope of bodies being about as fragile as wax figurines - there's nothing else in the movie, really. This is one of few films where the plot description on IMDB tells you everything that happens in the whole movie.

Because it's a movie about two friends, of course there's an unnecessary diversion where they have a falling out and then make up, but that's about it.

The movie, ultimately, left a bad taste in my mouth. A topic like this cries out for comedy, insight, satire, anything. I think the filmmakers just had no idea how to handle it; it's a social commentary story forced into a horror-comedy film.

I understand the hate but It's not that bad in my opinion! Starts out very meh but gets much better as it goes on, very funny and great kills otherwise yeah it's bad I still appreciate Tragedy Girls; I'd support them! I really like comradery between the main girls and how they tend to do whatever they want in a way. Really not as bad as people say I mean I've seen much worse horror films.

Recently, there has been a surge of these types of movies; some mentally ill females take it upon themselves to off any man that crosses their path. Movies like M.F.A. where every man is a predator, and poor defenseless females all have to resort to drastic measures to "teach them a lesson". Then comes this movie, that does such a good job of making light of a very serious subject; the notion that men are disposable and dispensable. There is no reason for the violence in this movie other than some girls being bored. That's it. Yes, they are mentally ill, and come from very different backgrounds, but once you start seeing their modus operati, you start to realize that they don't give a crap about the people they kill; they are doing it for notoriety and fame, all the while getting away with every single one thing they do. Who would ever suspect a cute, young teenage female, amirite?

Imagine if the gender was reversed for this movie; two young boys kill any female they feel annoys them or doesn't fall in line with what they want them to do, and get away with it. There would be outrage, the feminazi's would be trying to overturn trucks and assaulting men just for having it, and it would make every single critics worst films of the year list. It's okay when girls do it, but when a boy does it, it's a problem?

This is why my main issue lies with the way the subject manner was handled; making light of how replaceable society thinks men are is very low effort, and caters to a very limited and hateful mindset. I was offended, and I am not easily offended, that someone (two men, no less) decided to make this film, make it a comedy, and think that it is okay in this day and age. Where is the sympathy? Why are men and young boys seen as nothing more than pawns, while mentally ill girls are treated as the main event? It takes a specially kind of sociopath misandrist to find these types of movie funny. They are awful, make light of serious issues, and make everything a damn joke.

Seriously, though, the movie was pretty funny and I enjoyed the hell out of it. The acting was great, and that short haired blonde girl is going to be a star! Despite how I personally feel about the subject matter, I am a grown ADULT and understand that this is fiction, and respected the work as such. I will recommend this film to my friends, as it was very well done.

One of the most original slasher / horror films I have seen in a while. When they describe this as Scream meets Heather's they are spot on. Well worth checking out.

Tragedy Girls is very fun and self aware. It knows exactly what audience it was made for and doesnt try to be anything more. Its not marketed as an incredible shocking thriller, its a comedic teen slasher film based around topics that are very understandable for modern youth. Things I liked about this movie: Its alot of fun all the way through, there was no point where I felt like I was bored or losing interest in what was happening. The soundtrack is really great compared to alot of other horror movies I've seen where the scoring is extremely forgettable. Almost every song is very well paired with the scene its playing over. I especially enjoyed the trailer song, "Always Forever" By Cults, it was what initially attracted me to the trailer and after seeing the movie it has an entirely new meaning about the main characters. The only song That I felt was really in your face was the first song that played during the prom it didnt really land with me that well. The cinematography is very good in my opinion, the movie has alot of great shots that are incredibly pleasing to look at and that is a very big part of movies for me its what drives my opinion away from other movies of a similar caliber.

Things I did not like about the movie: From the trailers and most of the movie the girls seem to have an established motive but it doesnt seem like they always stick to it some of the murders and a certain part of their backstory strays from it but it doesnt take that much away from the overall watching experience. Alot of the characters introduced aside from the main two girls are very forgettable and mostly just thrown in as plot devices. The girls get away with all of there murders very very easily it could have been a little bit more well recieved if they werent apparently the two best killers of all time.

Overall I enjoyed this movie and if youre looking for a couple laughs I'd definitly recommend it.

It is film festival time once again so it is a great chance to check out smaller films like this on the big screen. This one is a twist on the slasher genre following two horror obsessed teenage girls who use their online blog about real-life murders to manipulate their way into the spotlight. It breathes life into the slasher genre and is also a great take on the dark side of social media. It has some inventive camera work that makes the most of its modest budget backed up with good performances all around.

I feel a shades of Heathers (1988) and it certainly has a few nods to some classic slasher films. It is not the first film in recent years to put a new twist on slasher films with good results... The Final Girls (2015) and You're Next (2011) come to mind but I think this one is better than those and is sure to become a cult favourite in years to come.

7/10

I had minimal expectations going into "Tragedy Girls" because, even though a massive fan of slashers and 80s horror cinema in general, I don't feel like I'm part of the target group for this kind of films. Horror comedies, and particularly self-declared "homages" or "throwbacks", are rarely as clever as the writer/director thinks they are. Moreover, yours truly is a 36-year-old male with very few interest in social media (Twitter, Snapchat and whatnot) and I most certainly cannot connect with the life-world of popular teenage girls. Still, there was something irresistibly appealing about the premise of "Tragedy Girls", so I went into the theater with an open mindset and must admit I don't have any regrets. BFF's Sadie and McKayla have two main purposes in life: killing many people and having the world's largest number of Twitter-followers; - the second being even more crucial than the first. They kidnap and cage a beginning serial killer, but cheerfully continue the murder spree themselves whilst actively reporting on social media and incriminating the allegedly at large killer. The girls choose their next victims based on whoever steals their media attention, and meanwhile they also have a school prom to prepare!

I'm not quite sure if director Tyler MacIntyre is spoofing or accurately depicting the trending phenomenon of social media. Teenagers nowadays really are obsessed with their smartphones and do the craziest things to earn their spot on the internet. I don't see any dumb kids capable of murdering other human beings, but admittedly it's a good baseline for a horror comedy. In many other reviews I read that many viewers find all the lead characters, especially the two girls, hopelessly irritating and implausible, but I hardly think you can blame the script. Teens that send texts with hearts to each other while they're in the same classroom are irritating by default. The only character that I personally found truly annoying was Kevin Durand's serial killer Lowell (according to the credits that's his name, although I'm sure they call him Lehmann instead). He's the least competent killer in history and gets his butt whooped by a couple of teen drama queens no less than three times. "Tragedy Girls" is not an excessively gory film, but a handful of death scenes are both gruesome and utmost ingenious. Notably memorable moments include the combination of a poor girl's head and a buzz saw, Craig Robinson versus a dumbbell and a subtly genius "Cannibal Holocaust" tribute. This latter sequence probably won't get noticed by the youngest genre fanatics, but it does prove that MacIntyre knows his classics. His directing skills are more adequate, by the way. Add to this a pleasingly grim (albeit foreseeable) finale, and the overall end result is that "Tragedy Girls" is one of the more satisfying genre efforts of the 2010's.

7/10 - unique and stylized horror flick has an incredible cast and what I imagine to be great rewatchability.

I liked this movie and the way it show's how being obsessed with social media is not healthy at all for teens or adults.!!

I loved how clueless the parents are but sadly thats the way a lot of parent and child relationships are parents have no clue what kind of person there child is, all too often parents think there kids are little angels, when in reality there lil demons lol!! This movie isnt the most realistic movie out there so dont go in thinking that but if you can get over some of the logic i think you will enjoy this movie.

Living in a small-town, teenage best friends who run an online site obsessed with real-life death want to create their own story to capitalize on the buzz their site creates in the aftermath of a string of deaths and try their own hand at the style where no one is safe when they're done.

This was quite the fun and enjoyable effort. One of the film's finest points is the fact that there's a rather large connection to the way it absorbs modern society in the current day and age. This one starts off immediately with this type of brazenly modern social media-obsessed culture where the girls set their trap and knock out the supposed killer before taunting him with their lingo and fan- girl mindset that gives them the appearance of being quite in-depth with modern society. That this one features them so continuously on their blog, focusing on hashtags and getting their posts out onto the world that it delves so deeply into the modern world that it resonates incredibly well due to that factor. The screens showcasing the different messages or tweets for their work that it furthers this even more, and it manages to give this a really strong stylistic look that gives this one a nice feel. Even with all this work to tie it into the modern culture, there's still the horror elements at present here which are pretty accomplished and manage quite a lot to like. The initial stalking in the woods at the bridge is a rather straightforward affair, but the remaining scenes are played more for black comedy with the way these teenage girls can overcome and overpower their much larger, more powerful victims gives this a comic edge. From the way in which they start the massacre at the school garage to the ambush at the gym where they take down their biggest obstacle yet, these more horrific scenes intended to be funny give this a strong and overall like to like feel when coupled with the rather enjoyable technological connections. The finale at the prom manages to generate a lot of fun by really letting loose with a fun time while offering the more action-packed stalking and chasing to come full-circle while also giving the film a really engaging and strong finish which is quite a rousing way to finish. These here manage to give this one a lot to really enjoy while it does have a few minor issues to be had here. While it does generate a lot to like, there's a few flaws here. The most noticeable issue is the fact that there's no accounting for how the police go about their investigation here as there's no reason why they couldn't have figured out who's doing the killings. The fact that they run such a blog at the particular time this occurs gives them such a red flag that it's almost impossible why they're not targeted sooner in the investigation, and it turns even more obvious once they get to the different bodies found around the town. Even more obvious is their cold and callous attitude after everything, and how they always seem to be in the right spot at the right time is way too suspicious to ignore so their antics only seems to be that way in order to keep the film going. Some of the effects-work in the kills look off with the blood-splatter being way too fake, but overall it's not that bad of an issue.

Rated Unrated/R: Extreme Graphic Language and Graphic Violence.

Tragedy Girls 2017) is a movie I recently watched after it was recently added to Shudder. The storyline follows a couple high school best friends who are obsessed with serial killers and track and study their killing characteristics meticulously together. As they look to wrap up high school they take those studies to the next level.

This movie is directed by Tyler MacIntyre (Patch Work) and stars Brianna Hildebrand (Deadpool), Alexandra Shipp (X-Men: Apocalypse), Jack Quaid (The Hunger Games), Kevin Durand (X-Men Origins: Wolverine), Craig Robinson(Hot Tub Time Machine) and Nicky Whelan (Halloween II).

The cast in this is actually pretty good and the characters, dialogue and narrations reminded me of Mean Girls. The machete opening was awesome and the Plymouth Barracuda the kid was driving was an A+. The film has a solid soundtrack and Durand in this reminded me of Elon Musk for some reason. The gym scene was hilarious as was the sketches the police showed the girls. Robinson was a good addition to the cast. There's some really good kills at the end of this and a great throat slash.

This movie isn't perfect but it's worth a viewing. It has a Buffy the Vampire television show (on CW) elements to it. I'd score this a 6.5-7/10 and recommend giving it a shot.

I literally never write reviews, but this movie is amazing. It's so current, and funny, and if you're obsessed with horror, true crime, and social media, you're gonna loooove it. It's really clever, and has some really cool shots. I seriously can't wait to see what the director and writer does next. My new favorite horror-comedy. All the performances are great, the girls are so twistedly cute, Sadie's dad is so sweet, the teacher Ms. Kent is great... it's all spot on. Just don't take yourself too seriously and give it a watch. For fans of Tucker and Dale, Shaun of the Dead, etc
