Sadie and McKayla are two social-media obsessed best friends who will stop at nothing to build their online following. The self-titled "Tragedy Girls" kidnap Lowell, an unambitious local serial killer, and force him to mentor them into modern horror legends by committing murders to blow up on the internet. As the bodies fall, the girls become national news and panic in their small town hits a fever pitch - just then, Lowell escapes! Now with the local Sheriff closing in and their relationship on the rocks, the girls must rethink their plan before they find themselves the latest victims of their own killing spree.

Tragedy Girls is a noteworthy new release, riding the wave of Scream and today's Instagram phenomenon and their passionate obsession. The two main characters are willing to kill for followers and likes and unleash a decent high school horror story in their wake. It's admittedly a teen horror film, so anyone who doesn't like movies like this might as well go home, but I had fun. The gore is surprisingly good and I'm glad this isn't another PG-13 flick. the references to older horror films are also nice (Halloween, Final Destination, etc.) and the cast includes some very eye-pleasing ladies, even if they are all cows for the most part. Perhaps silly, but a nicely shot, brisk, occasionally funny and entertaining horror film that comes out slightly above average in the current drought. Had the finale been better, I would have gone for 4 stars. 65%

Tragedy Girls is, from my point of view, an entertaining American slasher horror movie, which might be quite predictable, although this does not change the fact it is quite entertaining. This movie delivers exactly what most slasher movies try to give you and in this case, it works. In addition, the two girls in the lead are just great.
