THE FINAL GIRL SUPPORT GROUP

RELEASED OUT NOW!

400 pages | Hardback/ebook/audiobook Author Grady Hendrix Publisher Titan Books

Imagine the most famous slasher movie franchises were all actually based on true cases. Imagine what those teenage survivors would look like as grown women trying to come to terms with their ordeal. That’s the kicking off point for the latest from Grady Hendrix, author of My Best Friend’s Exorcism, and The Southern Book Club’s Guide To Slaying Vampires, who’s now taking on this ’80s horror genre.

Focusing on the group therapy sessions attended by six “final girls”, its narrator is Lynette, the survivor of a Silent Night, Deadly Night-style massacre. The group has been meeting for 16 years and its members are frankly sick to death of each other and on the verge of disbanding when some shocking news shakes them to the core: once again, someone is trying to pick them off one by one.

The TARDIS lands on a spaceship. It was very, very hard to shoot. We used real babies! I like to do things that I’ve never done before and sometimes that’s quite hard, with such a long career as mine.
