10 Dumbest Decisions Made By Final Girls In Horror Movies

3. Noa Goes Back For Her Phone - Fresh

Fresh's gutsy protagonist Noa (Daisy Edgar-Jones) is a relatively smart and sensible Final Girl for the most part, putting up one hell of a fight against her cannibalistic captor Brendan (Sebastian Stan) - especially considering he cut her ass off and all.

But at film's end, Noa shoots Brendan in the head, and rather than instantly get the hell out of dodge with her fellow survivors, she decides it's of the utmost importance that she retrieve her phone from where she dropped it in the woods - despite there being no phone signal in the area.

This causes Noa to bump into Brendan's wife Ann (Charlotte Le Bon), who naturally isn't too thrilled about Noa killing her husband.

A fight breaks out, with Ann very nearly strangling Noa to death until her pal Mollie (Jonica T. Gibbs) makes the save, beating Ann to death with a shovel.

Pro-tip: if you kill a guy who kidnaps women, cuts them up, sells their meat, and then kills them, get the hell out of there the second you're able.

Hanging around to retrieve a damn phone - when there's no signal and your friend also has a phone no less - is straight-up idiot behaviour.
