Tragedy Girls

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

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.

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 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.

Tragedy Girls (2018) is about a two teenagers that are obsessed with the social media, so they start killing some people to make themselves famous and get more followers in the social media. I honestly thought the plot was stupid, but it put smile on my face for some reasons. It's entertaining! Two lead actresses were very solid at the best, but both might be annoying. The kills are really fantastic and yet, it was funny how they tried to kill people only in their hands. It has some great sense of humor and silly dialogues. The cinematography is quite also good, but that shot (where you can see on the poster from this post) is absolutely the best part of the film. If you enjoyed The Final Girls (2015), you would enjoy this one too. Definitely a fun slasher spoof, fans of fun, goofy horror-comedies will enjoy it. My rating: 7.5/10.
