Urban Legends : Final Cut (2000) 6/10

Starring : Jennifer Morrison, Matthew Davis, Hart Bochner, Loretta Devine
Director : John Ottman
Running Time : 94 mins

When film student Amy Mayfield (Morrison) decides to make her final project a horror film based on urban legends, a series of similarly themed murders begin to take place on campus.

Basically this movie felt like it was cashing in the popularity of the same years Scream 3. Here the cast try to poke fun at the film industry with a couple of weak one-liners, and the deaths just become more and more predictable. There's a pretty much no-name cast (Jennifer Morrison possibly being the most famous, although Joey Lawrence of Blossom fame makes an appearance, and it features a very young Eva Mendes), but when it comes to teen horror flicks, it's all about the death toll. Definitely only worth watching if you're obsessed with the late nineties-early noughties resurgence of the teen horror.
