We need to get this PSA out to the masses. I'll call the radio stations, you get a hold of NBC and we'll get this baby on the air pronto. No more young lives should be lost to this menace! @Janskoller: Succinctly put. We need to get this PSA out to the masses.

People, we need to ban together and spay your Survivor Girl. Future generations depend on the decline of this species. If these Survivor Girls are allowed to breed they will create more of them and the death rate among teens will only continue to rise. Drugs, STDs, and alcohol pale in comparison to the damage that is left behind in the wake of their existence. So please, spay your Survivor Girls; think of the children.

I still think the 3rd one is worth a look. Nancy is not in the second Elm Street film, but she returns in the 3rd. It is actually my favorite, because all of them take the fight to Freddie. And a young Patricia Arquiette is the lead. @Sean R.: I love all the Alien movies, though the second is my favorite. I still think the 3rd one is worth a look.

That sucks; I never saw the sequels and don't really intend to, cause of what I heard. That's why I still cant bring myself to watch the 3rd Alien movie...

She is not rewarded for fighting back. We aren't even sure if she actually won at the end of the first film. If we assume she did, because she appears again in the 3rd film, we see that that is only because she started taking drugs to prevent dreaming. When she attempts to fight again, she dies. She even rallies the kids in the 3rd movie together, most of whom die. Classic Survivor Girl moves, and in the long run she doesn't even survive, which is also true to form. Most survivor girls only retain their title for one movie, and are then killed in the sequel. I think she well deserves her place on this list. @Sean R.: I disagree about Nancy.

At least she actually fights back, as opposed to surrounding herself with unbelief and then screaming and hiding and waiting for some hero or miracle to save her. Also, she uses her brain to fight Freddie, and is rewarded for it, and that's awesome; come on, thinking up not only a way to beard the lion in his den but also a way to get out? That's badass. And I'm sorry, but Jonny Depp deserved what he got for falling asleep alone. Oh, I dunno… I always sort of liked Nancy from Nightmare on Elm.
