Jamie Lee Curtis has survived classic horror movies more times than I can count. She even survived the borderline-offensive plot twists of the much maligned and blessedly forgotten Halloween: Resurrection (2002). Apparently, it all has led to this: The Final Girls.
Produced by ABC Family, the project is being fast-tracked according to Deadline. It is based on a spec script by Jeff Dixon and is to be directed (at least for the pilot) and executive produced by Steve Miner, who Curtis and horror fans should recall from having helmed the relatively well-received Halloween: H20 (1998). He also directed Curtis in Forever Young.(1992).
Could this collaboration be THEIR own spiritual continuation of Laurie Strode? With a title like The Final Girls., it certainly suggests the prospect of what happens to Laurie after Michael. Even the synopsis is curious: Horror survivor Curtis helps a group of young women cope with their own horror-themed ordeals. Feel very familiar? I wonder if any of them will have an older brother?
