You always wonder what happens to the final girl and we occasionally get sequels where they are fighting a bigger, badder version of the big bad. But what happens after the big bad is actually dead? This movie does a take on the same premise with a brilliant concept... set the girl forward in time, with a job, new mundane life respectably afraid of making friends, etc. Well, the set up is indeed brilliant but then the movie falls off the rails mis second act. I suspected the ending when the movie started and prayed all throughout that I was wrong. I was not. Low budget does not, for once get in the way here (the top three leads are very capable actors) even if it does impact technical values of the production. It is the poor third act and pedestrian genre tropes that the movie falls into... Could have been so awesome. Danielle Evon Ploeger and Brian Villalobos strand out, even if the story eventually let's them down.
