Urban Legends: Final Cut

After talking to a helpful security guard, Amy Mayfield finally decides on a premise for her thesis film: a serial killer whose murders are based on urban legends. Trouble is, once filming begins, Amy’s cast and crew start getting killed off. Urban Legends: Final Cut, while a decent campus-based slasher, really plays it fast and loose when it comes to structuring the kills around urban legends. Most of the kills are on theme, often mirroring the kills featured in the film within the film. That said, some of the kills are just kills for kills sake. And that’s not necessarily a bad thing, I think we can all agree that a slasher movie needs plenty of kills. It’s just that when you’re making a sequel to an urban legend themed slasher, you really ought to stay on brand more. I mean, the movie’s not called Urban Legends and Then Some: Final Cut, am I right?
