| Snake5555555555 10/02/20 12:52:46 PM #31: | 129. Chris Higgins (8.5 points) Nominated by: RaidenGarai (3/5 remaining) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcb0vROvmWk Importance: 2.5 Fear: 1 Snake: 4.5 Here we have yet another final girl, this time hailing from the Friday the 13th franchise. Despite being the first Friday survivor to clash against Jason while he was wearing his signature hockey mask, Chris is something of a disappointment to me in the franchise. Keep in mind, up until this point, Friday the 13th had not one, but two iconic final girls to its name, Alice & Ginny (more on her later), two memorable survivors that clashed against their respective antagonists in their own creative ways. Chris getting sloppy seconds with Jason isn't the reason she's disappointing to me though. It's really just the plain, simple fact that I can't remember a damn thing she does besides nailing Jason in his mask with an axe. Sure, she's tough, holds her own against Jason, but that alone a good final girl does not make. Without some substance, some character-revealing moments I can point to outside of something to do with the main antagonist, your character is really just going to be a big swing-and-a-miss for me. And this coming from a series with a better crop of heroes than most other slashers, Chris just really stands out as a sore spot in the Friday the 13th legacy. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
