It’s Cabin in the Woods meets Pleasantville with a girl-power twist, as Nina Dobrev is one of The Final Girls.
Nina Dobrev has gone from human to vampire to human again, transitioning from The Vampire Diaries to the promising horror-comedy The Final Girls.
The Final Girls stars Taissa Farmiga as Max, the daughter of a movie star who died after filming a slasher movie titled Camp Bloodbath.
At the movie screening, a fire breaks out, and Max’s group of friends escape through the screen — and end up in the actual movie! Now, they have to fight for their lives… but don’t expect many of them to make it out alive.
Basically it’s like Pleasantville, but in color. Lots of red, we imagine.
Check out the thrilling trailer below:
Marketed as, “The feel-good horror movie of the year,” The Final Girls promises hilarity, good scares, and a solid amount of girl power. We love it already!
The Final Girls also stars Malin Akerman, Adam DeVine, Angela Trimbur, Thomas Middleditch, Chloe Bridges, Tory N. Thompson, and Alexander Ludwig of The Hunger Games fame.
It was directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson, whose comedy/horror resumé includes A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas, Zombies and Cheerleaders, Betas, and a few episodes of The Inbetweeners.

Nina Dobrev broke The Vampire Diaries fans’ hearts when she announced that she would be leaving the show at the end of season 6.
At last week’s Teen Choice Awards, Dobrev won the Choice TV Actress in Sci-fi/Fantasy award, and gave a very nice speech in which she thanked her fans for all of her success.
“The last few months have been a big change for me,” she said. “Change. It’s a scary word, or I used to think that, because it meant new beginnings. New beginnings with a future that was unknown. But change is necessary — necessary for you to grow up and learn and to better yourself, because everything in life comes to an end.”
