I'll have to give that one some thought. Good question.

I guess I'd say she'd fit somewhere in the middle of the pack.

but that screaming bit was pretty good. I'd give her points for that. I usually hate screaming.

If she weren't warned, going upstairs wouldn't detract her from high placement, but she was warned and went anyway lol

Killing her own boyfriend when he wasn't the killer also loses her many points. Lol.

Her decisions drop her pretty far when it comes to being a final girl, but those same decisions make the movie better.

Laurie wasn't warned before hand, she honestly thought her friends were just goofing around.

I wouldn't dock points for thinking she got the killer. That just makes it a tragedy.

Dude broke into the house. Pretty weird thing to do. Plus he threatened her last time they talked.

This is why I can't make a top all time horror movie list. How do you rank this in comparison to something like Friday IV? They're so different and so enjoyable on completely different levels.
