@@dakotamanns4682 Idk I love Laurie but look how she ended up. If you go based on the original, and compare what she’s been through, she didn’t really win. She lost her daughter and became isolated. Whereas Sidney has been through it 4 times and still managed to keep her life together and if rumors are true have a marriage and have two children. In my opinion Sidney is a stronger/better final girl.
As a Friday and Chucky fanatic, I'm not at all pissed at this list. Everybody likes different things. Cool list, glad Helen got some love on here😁❤✌keep rockin🤘
My favorite: Ginny from Friday the 13th Part 2, because she used her psychology background to tap into Jason's mind and outsmart him. I love that she was able to defeat him with intelligence rather than physical strength which comes out of nowhere for most final girls, where they're weak and scared throughout the film and then randomly become Rambo at the end
These lists are always fun to watch, and I really liked your choices! Laurie Strode will always and forever be my #1 final girl. You asked us to say why, so here goes: Laurie is always the caretaker, and is therefore the perfect foil for a psycho killer. First, she's the babysitter, and later, she is the mother (and mother/grandmother again). Laurie scrambles to save herself, but she is also fighting for others' safety. Some of the other girls are concerned about others, but Laurie is a true mother figure: she preserves life, while Michael steals it away. Cool list! :)
@@CodyLeachYT hey man just wondering why didn't Erin from Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2003 make it on this list? Yes I know she was the reason her friends in that film all got killed, but when it was time to be brave, she was badass. To me shes a way better final girl than Laurie Strode. All in all your list is respected bro. I'm just baffled is all
For me Erin Will always be best final girl she's literally everything you could ever want in a final girl She is the perfect evolution of final girls every final girl that came before her was a build-up to what would eventually become erin I'm sorry but none of the other final girls can hold a candle to her put any other of these final girls against Erin she would kill every single one of them. Erin was such a great character I took a lot of inspiration from her while writing a character for this script to a horror anime that I've been working on for years.
My favourite final girls: 1. Nancy - A Nightmare on Elm Street 2. Sidney - Scream 3. Laurie - Halloween 4. Erin - You’re Next 5. Ripley - Alien 6. Ginny - Friday the 13th Part 2 7. Kirsty - Hellraiser 8. Jess - Black Christmas 9. Cyndi - Kill River (slasher novels) 10. Sarah - The Descent 11. Jamie and Rachel - Halloween 4 12. Jannicke - Cold Prey 13. Mia - Evil Dead
The way I think about you’re opinions, ‘I’m a man of controversy’.... and I wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s what makes you stand out from the rest of the crowd.
I gotta be honest man. Knowing how much of a Freddy fanatic you are, I was shocked to see Nancy at number 4. I love that you aren't afraid to do stuff like that. Awesome list man. Keep up the great work!
Nancy from nightmare on elm street is definitely my favorite final girl. In the beginning, she was terrified and vulnerable but i love how she rises up and becomes a tough survivor. A pure heroine
@@jtrillguzman9641 She did the best she could, the original TCM is very realistic, she was probably in shock. And I don’t really know what a short, petit teenage girl suffering from severe mental trauma is supposed to do against a huge giant of a man swinging around a chainsaw. I’d probably just run too.
My top 6 final girls are (I'll make a full top 10 soon) 1 Neve Campbell My biggest crush growing up, ever since watching the Craft she's been my favorite final girl. Then the movie's screams came out and I was in love with her. 2. Eliza Dushku A close second, another crush I had as well. Watching the movie wrong turn did it for me loved her acting love her toughness and also her beautiful face. A underated actress. Need to make more movies like this. It would of been better if she continued in all the franchise's that's why the first wrong turn is my favorite.she could of saved the franchise. 3. Heather Langenkamp A Nightmare on elm street loved her in the Nightmare on elm street's she made the movie's. Ever since she she died so did the franchise. 4. Ashley Laurence Hellraiser Franchise another beautiful actress in a good franchise except the one's that she's not in again like the Nightmare on elm street with Langenkamp The franchise went down hill after she left. 5. Jennifer Love Hewitt I Know What You Did Last Summer Beautiful actress good movie a strong and tough woman in this movie. Was a very entertaining movie enjoy watching her in this one. 6. Jamie Lee Curtis Halloween Franchise Great final girl in one of the best movies ever in my opinion Halloween a franchise like no other. A strong and a protector especially the one's she loves.
Lmfao great gun effects with the Lorie Strode spot. And fuck dudeeee, I’m a sucker for Heather Langenkamp. My favorite final girl besides Neve Campbell. Great list nonetheless bro. Cheers🥃
So glad you put erin from You're Next. No one ever talks about the movie or this performance!!! Its a staple for me every halloween, my girlfriend one year even dressed up as her and I as a intruder with the sheep mask. Thank ya !!
Erin from You're Next is freaking awesome. I wish they had made a sequel, because she could easily carry a subsequent chapter. I don't know where they'd go with the story, but I want to find out.
As much as I like Laurie Strode, I see how much her character is constantly changed in the Halloween franchise. Sidney has gotta be my favorite final girl because she doesn't take any shit from Ghostface throughout the Scream films. I live how her character develops throughout the movies. Wonder how she's gonna be in the fifth one.
I really enjoy you're doing top 10 videos like this. I don't know if you thought about it but would you consider doing a top 10 or possibly more of your own personal favorite horror icons? I would really enjoy discussing that
My top 10 final girls 10: Sally Hardesty 9: Julie James 8: Kirsty Cotton 7: Nancy Thompson 6: Alice Hardy 5: Sydney Prescott 4: Sarah Carter 3: Ellen Ripley 2: Laurie Strode 1: Sarah Conner
I absolutely LOVE this list. I ADORE it. This is the best thing ever. You have all the iconic final girls on this list and you have some that are very underrated and aswell I didn't see Sarah being the number 1 but I am definetly amazed by her and Iove that you have your own unique taste and list yet still putting the original icons on it. Great job @Cody Leach this list really made my day!
I know these are pretty unknown movies, but I think Justine from Kristy, and Amber from Green Room (my two favorite movies) are amazing final girls, that deserve recognition. Justine is an incredibly clever college chick, and the way that she takes action, after being the victim for so long, it's just so satisfying. Although Amber has an attitude throughout the entire movie (which I adore), I loved how she (and Pat) develop and eventually learn take advantage.
Nice list Cody Lots of good final girls 👍 whom have conquer and triumph. 10. Helen Candyman 9. Mia evil dead 8. Jess Bradford black Christmas 7. Sarah Carter the descent 6. Ginny Fields Friday the 13th 2 5. Laurie strode 4. Ellen Ripley 3. Nancy Thompson 2. Sidney Prescott 1. Sarah Connor
@@Horrormaster13 I agree that he's a poor man's version of the T-1000....but he was still a bad ass character. You said that Sarah Connor was the ONLY thing good in Dark Fate. I think this new version of the Terminator should qualify as another good thing in Dark Fate....not just Sarah Connor.
loveeee sarah, the descent is awesome i think my list would go 1. Nancy Thompson - NOES 2. Sydney Prescott - Scream 3. Sarah - The Descent 4. Ripley - Alien 5. Laurie - Halloween 6. Kirsten - NOES Dream Warriors 7. Jess - Black Christmas 8. Grace - Ready or Not 9. Jess - Triangle 10. Kate - Creep
H20 Laurie was the best interpretation so far in my opinion. Tough yet damaged, but not so damaged that she's incapable of having any relationships with family and friends. That was just a little boring from the 2018 incarnation, a little too cruel. H20 was the right mix. Shame Resurrection happened.
23:00 My favourite Sarah scene in T2 is when she's shooting the shit out of the T-1000 with a shotgun and then it does the creepy "uh uh uh" finger wag.
I'm incredibly surprised you didn't add Kyle from Child's Play 2 in this list. I figured you would. Still a cool list though man. Great work! Just wanted to add that I found this surprising.
It’s in between Sidney and Nancy but I like Nancy cause she had to deal with a supernatural demon dream master Sidney just had a guy in a mask who supposedly had sum to do with the death of her mom
Great list Cody!!! I love it!!! And, I agree about Laurie and H20. One of the best interpretations of the character. Also, I too, am a fan of Dark Fate! Thanks for another awesome and enjoyable video! Congrats!!!!
Sidney, Mia, and Erin are my holy trinity. Nica from the later Child’s Play movies is good too (despite Cult sucking.) I love Helen too, there’s something so elegant about her.
10. Friday the 13th Part 2: Ginny Field 9. Nightmare on Elm Street: Nancy Thompson 8. Final Destination 3: Wendy Christensen 7. IKWYDLS: Helen Shivers 6. Zombieland: Wichita 5. Curse and Cult of Chucky: Nica Pierce 4. Halloween 4: Rachel Carruthers 3. Ready or Not: Grace 2. Scream: Sydney Prescott 1. Halloween: Laurie Strode
Laurie Strode Is My Favorite Final Girl But I See Where Your Coming From And I Respect Your Opinion But Jessie Burlingame From The Wrong Turn Franchise Is In The Top 3 For Me Personally And Sidney Is Also Really Good
Cody: "Please don't get pissed, if your favorite didn't make the cut.... Number 10... Ginny" Me: "We're cool" Wouldn't have been mad anyway, but I just found it funny that ya got mine out of the way right from the start
Another awesome list, and definitely some unique placements here. I'm not sure if Evelyn from A Quiet Place would count, but I'd add her as an honorable mention. Looking forward to seeing more.
My top 10 Survivors in Horror movies. #1 Adrienne King. (Friday the 13th) #2 Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween) #3 Amy Steel ( Friday the 13th part 2) #4 Kimberly Beck (Friday the 13th Part 4) #5 Danielle Harris. (Halloween 4 & 5 ) #6 Lar Park Lincoln. (Friday the 13th 7) #7 Jared Padalecki. (Friday the 13th part12) The Reboot. #8 Neve Campbell (Scream) #9 Heather Lankencamp. Nightmare on Elm Street. #10 Dee Wallace. ( The Howling & Cujo)
I agree this is a solid list and love it. You did a teaser review last year for Halloween Night a fan film and it was released on youtube in March I was just wondering if you have had a chance to see it yet. Keep doing what you do man.
For me Sidney is my number one because she is one of the only final girls that is the hole serries of her films. (Don't you dare not cast her in part 5 man) even gale wethers could earn her one please on this list if you ask me 😆
Great list, Cody. As Final Girls these mentions got the props they deserve. Our lists wouldn't be EXACTLY the same but for the most part we're on the same page. Here are some of my honorable mentions: Kirsty Cotton (Ashley Laurence) from Hellraiser Jennifer (Holly Marie Combs) from Dr. Giggles Meg Penny (Shawnee Smith) from The Blob Barbra (Patricia Tallman) from Night of the Living Dead(1990) Ola Rae from Michael Jackson's Thriller (yes I'm counting that) for no other reason than she was just so damn FINE. Worst Final Girls: Stretch (Caroline Williams) from Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2--even though I like the movie, the woman just screamed way too much. And I'm sure I'll think of some more worst ones later.
1. Sidney Prescott 2. Laurie strode 3. Nancy Thompson 4. Erin - you're next 5. Tree - happy death day 1&2 6. Ginny - f the 13th part 2 7. Mia- evil dead 8. Cherry darling - planet terror 9. Jess- black Christmas 10. Stevie Wayne- the fog
Solid list. For my personal list - Clear Rivers (Final Destinations) Laurie Strodes (Zombies Halloweens) Erin ( You're Next) Sarah (The Descent) Evenleigh (The Mummys) Christie ( TCM the Beginning) Epps (Ghost Ship) Chris (F13 Part 3) Ripley ( Aliens) Alice ( NOES 4 and 5)
I’ve honestly never even thought of Sarah Connor as a final girl, but man I couldn’t agree more.
Yeah idk if I consider her one 😐
nolanc94 why not
Ryan Cheek idk if I even consider Terminator horror
@@nolanc9432 I wouldn't consider terminater a horror movie
Terminator is not a slasher he uses guns how do you slash with a gun dumb dumb
Sidney is my fave. i loved that she was so strong. smart and felt empathy whenever someone died
Personally Sydney will always be my number 1 final girl but I appreciate the runner up position
Yeah, she is my number 1 personally, but I am totally fine with number 2.
I agree. I would have had her at number 1, but I'll settle for number 2.
Same
Laurie is always number one. Only people who haven’t watched classics would put her first
@@dakotamanns4682 Idk I love Laurie but look how she ended up. If you go based on the original, and compare what she’s been through, she didn’t really win. She lost her daughter and became isolated. Whereas Sidney has been through it 4 times and still managed to keep her life together and if rumors are true have a marriage and have two children. In my opinion Sidney is a stronger/better final girl.
Erin in You’re Next was awesome! She had me rooting for her so hard I was cheering in my living room every time she killed someone lol.
Literally same! She is my number 1 final girl
I love how at least one list it was pointed out that she’s one of the few final girls/heroes with a higher body count than the villains.

Make that 43!
15:14 I feel like Nancy should have gotten the Dream Master powers Alice had in 4 and 5. She fits better as Freddy's good counterpart and arch enemy.
Nancy was dead by those films...
@@that1forgettableperson458 What I mean is that should have been her dream power in the 3rd film.
@@Xehanort10 oh ok
@@Xehanort10 as a kid yes looking back no. Alice looked more badass with fighting powers
Nancy always. Powers or not. Why is Alice never mentioned much

Kyle from Childs Play 2 would if been in my top 5
Agreed. Her cameo in Cult makes me hope she'll appear in the TV show.
Emily Valentine?
Oooh good one!
She's underrated and I don't know why, she's so good, maybe it's because she was only in one movie
@@Hardbody217 the TV show is scrapped, there is a different direction in the making

She does nothing in the first movie except scream and cry. She doesn’t fight back whatsoever
Nancy Thompson is my Favorite final girl. But I'm really biased.
Me too
@Caleb HD it was a great way to end her story but obviously it wasn’t the end of the nightmare films and it had the best Freddy death
When something is your favorite, it's always subjective. Not really biased, it's normal. And logical.
She should be on list despite her dying in part 3 she was final girl in 1st one an
New Nightmare
Great list Cody! I thought that Grace from Ready or Not was also a badass Final Girl , Hope to see Samara Weaving it more Final Girl type roles
I love samara weaving she’s an amazing actress I like her in both babysitter movies on Netflix even though the first is way better then the second one
I also thought she would appear on the list, for me grace is a great final girl
Dude this thumbnail is BADASS, did you come up with that yourself?
I'm equally as intrigued
Honestly, it’s an awesome one
I found them on google and put it together

So happy to see You’re Next get some love. I often feel that this movie doesn’t get nearly enough respect. Erin was a legit badass!
Yes this movie doesn't get the attention it deserves
The way I think about you’re opinions, ‘I’m a man of controversy’.... and I wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s what makes you stand out from the rest of the crowd.
Ssoooooo glad you included Erin..she is an absolute BEAST and my personal favorite final girl
Honestly wasn’t surprised about Aaron being on this list she’s a great final girl seriously
Jenniey the queen don’t rlly give af...
Its erin but ok
When you paused at 5 I knew you were gonna say LAURIE😂
I gotta be honest man. Knowing how much of a Freddy fanatic you are, I was shocked to see Nancy at number 4. I love that you aren't afraid to do stuff like that. Awesome list man. Keep up the great work!
Love that Rob Zombie made Annie Brackett as a "semi" final girl surviving the first and unsurprisingly dying in the second.
Nancy from nightmare on elm street is definitely my favorite final girl. In the beginning, she was terrified and vulnerable but i love how she rises up and becomes a tough survivor. A pure heroine
I was getting really nervous when Sidney wasn't mentioned but then you mentioned her at number TWO! I legit clapped 😂
Sydney Prescott is my fav final girl imo in every sequel she just becomes more of a badass n has a growth at the end
Nancy is my forever favorite final girl
Mt favorite final girl is Sally Hardesty from 1974s Texas Chainsaw Massacre. She is so iconic, and she endured days of suffering.
She wasn't tough though she didn't even fight off leatherface she just ran

@@foolforchrist319 I give it too her she came back in the 2022 version and try to fight him off but she didn't succeed
Dope list! I really like Kirsty from Hellraiser too, she's really cool
Yes she is but she's also underrated to me
I love how cody always has to tread lightly when anything Halloween isn't #1 lol. Great list man my #1 is Sydney.
ah, my fav topic to talk about concerning horror! super pumped!
edit: i screamed out loud when you mentioned Mia. my fav!!!! 🖤
My top 6 final girls are (I'll make a full top 10 soon)
1 Neve Campbell
My biggest crush growing up, ever since watching the Craft she's been my favorite final girl. Then the movie's screams came out and I was in love with her.
2. Eliza Dushku
A close second, another crush I had as well. Watching the movie wrong turn did it for me loved her acting love her toughness and also her beautiful face. A underated actress. Need to make more movies like this. It would of been better if she continued in all the franchise's that's why the first wrong turn is my favorite.she could of saved the franchise.
3. Heather Langenkamp
A Nightmare on elm street loved her in the Nightmare on elm street's she made the movie's. Ever since she she died so did the franchise.
4. Ashley Laurence
Hellraiser Franchise another beautiful actress in a good franchise except the one's that she's not in again like the Nightmare on elm street with Langenkamp
The franchise went down hill after she left.
5. Jennifer Love Hewitt
I Know What You Did Last Summer
Beautiful actress good movie a strong and tough woman in this movie. Was a very entertaining movie enjoy watching her in this one.
6. Jamie Lee Curtis
Halloween Franchise
Great final girl in one of the best movies ever in my opinion Halloween a franchise like no other. A strong and a protector especially the one's she loves.
I'm glad Jennifer Love hewitt gets some love
Jamie too low on your list..
She did more Halloweens than Sidney did Screams...
Halloween (1) (2) (H20) (Resrrurections) (2018) (Kills) (Ends)
Lmfao great gun effects with the Lorie Strode spot. And fuck dudeeee, I’m a sucker for Heather Langenkamp. My favorite final girl besides Neve Campbell. Great list nonetheless bro. Cheers🥃
i fell out my chair when it came down to number 5 LMAO
I would of added Jess Bradford from Black Christmas but pretty solid list.
Agreed.
2019?
Omg i forgot her but yes
@@TimmmTim Haven't seen the 2019 remake and never will see it. I meant the original 1974 version.

I got one thing to say about Mia. Groovy!

I just watched American Werewolf in London
10:51 I’m so dead right now😂
So glad you put erin from You're Next. No one ever talks about the movie or this performance!!! Its a staple for me every halloween, my girlfriend one year even dressed up as her and I as a intruder with the sheep mask. Thank ya !!

I wouldn't have necessarily put her on my list but just thought Cody might being a big Chucky fan.
Andy = Best Final Girl 😂
Sky Min in that case then Tommy Jarvis is the best final girl in Friday the 13th
I really enjoy you're doing top 10 videos like this. I don't know if you thought about it but would you consider doing a top 10 or possibly more of your own personal favorite horror icons? I would really enjoy discussing that

7. Jess - Black Christmas

Cody: "Please don't get pissed, if your favorite didn't make the cut.... Number 10... Ginny"
Me: "We're cool"
Wouldn't have been mad anyway, but I just found it funny that ya got mine out of the way right from the start
Great list Cody!
Although I would have put Ginny in Friday Part 2 a little higher.
Very creative idea for a ranking list Cody. Great job!
Another awesome list, and definitely some unique placements here. I'm not sure if Evelyn from A Quiet Place would count, but I'd add her as an honorable mention. Looking forward to seeing more.
Incredible list 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great list, I’m glad The Descent got some love.
My top 10 Survivors in Horror movies. #1 Adrienne King. (Friday the 13th) #2 Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween) #3 Amy Steel ( Friday the 13th part 2) #4 Kimberly Beck (Friday the 13th Part 4) #5 Danielle Harris. (Halloween 4 & 5 ) #6 Lar Park Lincoln. (Friday the 13th 7) #7 Jared Padalecki. (Friday the 13th part12) The Reboot. #8 Neve Campbell (Scream) #9 Heather Lankencamp. Nightmare on Elm Street. #10 Dee Wallace. ( The Howling & Cujo)
I agree this is a solid list and love it. You did a teaser review last year for Halloween Night a fan film and it was released on youtube in March I was just wondering if you have had a chance to see it yet. Keep doing what you do man.
For me Sidney is my number one because she is one of the only final girls that is the hole serries of her films. (Don't you dare not cast her in part 5 man) even gale wethers could earn her one please on this list if you ask me 😆
Thank you cody for the great work and keep up the great work
Years late commenting on this video, but I'm so glad to see someone else with an undying love for Sarah Connor. Definitely my #1 forever.
Thumbnail is 🔥🔥🔥
Enjoyed your thoughts on the whichness of the why.
Nice call in Mia from the Evil Dead man. Very underrated film and she freaking rocked the shit at the end and had a great character arch.
My top three would be Rachel from Halloween 4, Nancy, and Sidney.
Hell yeah
@Julian Roane lmao so did Nancy
@Julian Roane umm no they don't. Nancy died at the end of Dream Warriors. Heather Langenkamp plays herself in New Nightmare
@Julian Roane 😂😂😂
Great list, Cody. As Final Girls these mentions got the props they deserve. Our lists wouldn't be EXACTLY the same but for the most part we're on the same page.
Here are some of my honorable mentions:
Kirsty Cotton (Ashley Laurence) from Hellraiser
Jennifer (Holly Marie Combs) from Dr. Giggles
Meg Penny (Shawnee Smith) from The Blob
Barbra (Patricia Tallman) from Night of the Living Dead(1990)
Ola Rae from Michael Jackson's Thriller (yes I'm counting that) for no other reason than she was just so damn FINE.
Worst Final Girls:
Stretch (Caroline Williams) from Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2--even though I like the movie, the woman just screamed way too much.
And I'm sure I'll think of some more worst ones later.
1. Sidney Prescott
2. Laurie strode
3. Nancy Thompson
4. Erin - you're next
5. Tree - happy death day 1&2
6. Ginny - f the 13th part 2
7. Mia- evil dead
8. Cherry darling - planet terror
9. Jess- black Christmas
10. Stevie Wayne- the fog
Solid list.
For my personal list -
Clear Rivers (Final Destinations)
Laurie Strodes (Zombies Halloweens)
Erin ( You're Next)
Sarah (The Descent)
Evenleigh (The Mummys)
Christie ( TCM the Beginning)
Epps (Ghost Ship)
Chris (F13 Part 3)
Ripley ( Aliens)
Alice ( NOES 4 and 5)
