🌟 Final Girls Double Feature! 🌟
First up: Planet Terror (2007)
Cherry Darling might have started the night as a go-go dancer with a broken heart, but by the end of Planet Terror, she’s packing heat and leading the charge against a zombie outbreak. This week, we dive into Cherry’s wild, blood-soaked Final Girl arc, the sheer camp of Robert Rodriguez’s grindhouse vision, and how Rose McGowan’s performance—and later activism—turned fiction into something far more powerful. We explore how Planet Terror became part of McGowan’s real-life journey of reclaiming her power from Harvey Weinstein and how she emerged as one of the faces of the #MeToo movement.
Spoiler Warning: Things get gory fast—Planet Terror spoilers ahead!
