I’m picking movies I like with strong final girls who save themselves.

You’re Next (2011)
A home invasion occurs during a family reunion with a little twist - one of them has survival skills. Horror with a little dark humour, it’s good.

Ready or Not (2019)
A bride newly married into a wealthy family that owns a games company is forced to play a dangerous game on her wedding night. If you like You’re Next, you definitely want to watch this; it also has plenty of dark humour with a little gothic horror.

Prey (2022)
A young Comanche woman fights to protect her tribe. I know this is probably not the kind of flick one thinks of as a Final Girl movie, but when you really think about it, it fits really well. This the first Predator movie I have ever seen, it’s a prequel to the original and I thought it was good. I like its early 18th century period setting which took the battle of wits up another level since the Predator’s alien tech and weapons are so far far more advance.

    1. I don’t think I even saw the Ready or Not trailer. I think I decided to watch it based on its synopsis and the buzz it got.
