Tragedy Girls is being marketed as Clueless meets Scream, which is pretty accurate—it’s a slasher parody, but this time, the teenage girls are the hunters instead of the hunted. Sadie (Brianna Hildebrand) and McKayla (Alexandra Shipp) are the high school BFFs behind a true crime vlog that follows a string of murders in their small Midwestern town. But after Sadie and McKayla capture the serial killer, they embark on their own killing spree—with their bloodlust intensifying with each like and follow.
Though it’s risky to make a film with sadistic murderers as the protagonists, this duo is disarmingly likeable. And they’re funny: At one point McKayla describes her motorcycle-riding ex (Josh Hutcherson, AKA Peeta from The Hunger Games) as a “crotch rocket” and a “hottie with a hog.” You’ll root for these baby serial killers, even as they’re dismembering classmates in the school gym.
