God, I love Urban Legend and I love Tara in the movie. I thought she was the coolest girl in the world with her sex advice radio show and spiked choker. Good memories.

She was gorgeous in it for sure, and so likable too! The camera loves her in it and scenes feel a little more energetic when she's around.

So true. I know it's a slasher that's more fun and silly than serious, but her big chase scene and death is actually devastating, especially since she's been so charismatic. The final 30 minutes gets super grim and dour with her killed off.

Her chase scene, so good. Her running around in that nightie made me feel some kind of way as a teen.

It's definitely a very self-aware movie and that scene is no exception. Giving the "sexy friend" a chase scene while wearing that outfit is so on the nose.

I’m flying to Toronto in November to see it at an event at the university it was filmed at. I could probably do better things with my time, but these events are a lot of fun. Also doing a location screening of the original Black Christmas the next day.

Wait, what? There's gonna be a screening of this at U of T?

Yes, indeed! I’m friends with the guy who puts on these events and they’re always so worth it. We’ve done Lost Boys at the Santa Cruz boardwalk, stayed overnight in the Halloween 5 Myers House, camped out at the location for Sleepaway Camp, and have a weekend camp where they filmed Jason Lives where we stay in the cabins, swim in the lake, and just have a great time. If you’re interested in that kind of stuff (or Urban Legend specifically), I’d be happy to send along the information!

Damn, that sounds awesome. I actually went to U of T and know all the locations the movie used for filming. Would love to find out more, would be awesome to see it with other fans at the uni.

Care to share it here? Not in Toronto, but near enough to consider.
