The Fate of the Final Girl
$8.50
The “Final Girl” is a horror movie trope where one girl or woman confronts the killer, and at the end is the one to tell her story. This trope is conflicted with both feminist and patriarchal interpretations. In its heyday of the 80s, the final girl survived due to their ‘moral superiority’. More often than not, it means that she is a virgin. But what happens after the movie? They are drowning in trauma and grief; terrible things that happened way too young. Patriarchal society looks at them with “sadistic voyeurism” where their futures must “either be contained or destroyed” (Derek Soles).
This is a reduction screen print. Each print will look slightly different due to the nature of the printing process, with parts slightly faded or misaligned. Once these are all sold out, I won't be making any more!
