YMMV / Girls on Film

• Complete Monster: See here.
• Funny Moments:
  • Erin's parting words to Diego after the aforementioned Badass Boast. "Bunyip, motherfucker." The tale of the Bunyip slayer becomes a Running Gag through the rest of the story.
  • While undercover as an Asian Airhead, Erin texts in Valley Girl speak to lure a vampire into a trap. Kedra texts back in-character.
    Kedra: OMG really? Bring him over, this party's kickin'!
    Erin: (thinking) I am trying to imagine her typing this and I am failing miserably.
• Heartwarming Moments:
  • Lydia being reunited with her sister, Emma, who's been tortured, raped and turned into a vampire. Lydia, who Emma thinks will see her as a monster and is terrified of the possibility, immediately embraces her sister despite her change, without any fear whatsoever, and the two end up crying in each other's arms, each one saying how much they love the other.
  • When Erin frees Hardestadt, a stunned Jacobs can only wonder who the hell she is. Erin answers she's Hardestadt's sidekick. His response: Partner.
  • Erin has been undergoing a lot of doubt of what she means to the endlessly evasive Hardestadt. When he literally takes bullets for her, and she sees the look on his face?
    ''You're my Hardestadt. I'd walk through hell for you. And I know you'd do the same for me.
  • Erin surprises Hardestadt by beating him to work at last by the story's end and after informing him she won't let him get away with holding things from her anymore, she tells him she loves him. He agrees to be more open, promising that things will change for the better, informing Erin he loves her as well.
  • The last line of the story, after Emma asks Stadt and Erin if she can work with them.
    ''Together, they pushed the door open, and welcomed her into their lives.
• Moment of Awesome:
  • When Stadt goes missing for too long, Erin forgoes his instructions and investigates personally. Part of her investigation leads her to nearly falling victim to a powerful vampire named Diego who has a grudge against her boss. How does Erin get out of certain death? Bluff like a goddamn champ, which unnerves the vampire enough, that the vampire who initially hesitated in helping Erin, backs her up and helps scare her rival off.
    Erin: What [will you do], rip out my guts? Tear off my head? Throw me out the window? Yeah, you got one thing right: I'm with Hardestadt Delac, baddest son of a bitch to set foot on this continent, the guy who's cheated death more times than you've got hairs on your head! And you know why I'm with him? Because he got by the last few years cause of me! Yeah, I was right with him when we took out a fucking Brahmaparusha, something that'd eat you for goddamn breakfast and ask for seconds! And a week later we took down a goddamn draugr, which scared me WAY more than this half-assed Dracula routine you've got going on! That was week one, bitch! I've taken down Baobhan Sidhe, Kumiho, Redcaps, nocnitsa, Dullahan, a wendigo, Jorogumo and a goddamn bunyip! And that ain't even a fucking exhaustive list! You think you scare me, think the FUCK again! And if Hardestadt didn't kick your sorry ass up and down your home turf when he got your eye, you wouldn't be hesitating to lay a hand on me right now! Yeah, you know you try to pull shit, that if I don't shank your sorry ass with the stake I've got in my pocket then you're gonna be explaining to Hardestadt why you put one finger on me before he rips your other eye out and shoves it up your ass!
    Diego: You're...bluffing-
    Erin: Yeah? We talking about the same Hardestadt? This tall, white hair, purple eyes, makes a mean pancake? (Drops her free hand to her pocket) Go ahead. Make my day!
  • Stadt going One-Man Army on Jacobs's men, weaving through bullets and ripping through the vampires with his sword and bare hands like a hot knife through butter. When he gets to Jacobs, he throws down his sword and tells Jacob to use it to fight him. What follows is a Curb-Stomp Battle where Stadt effortlessly dodging his blows and dealing him humiliating ones in return, all while reciting the names of the girls that Jacobs has tortured and killed. After Stadt's broken Jacobs's leg, he drags him down the hall and suspends him over the pit of hungry ghouls. Before he drops him to be Eaten Alive, he tells Jacobs, who's been calling him "Hardy-Boy" throughout the story, one last thing.
    Stadt: The fucking name is Hardestadt.
• Moral Event Horizon:
  • Rich Jacobs was already bad enough as a snuff film director, but he truly manages to cross the line when he kidnapped Hardestadt and tortured the poor guy for a week, forcing him to watch his own films, eat one of his girls, and get brutally beaten up.
  • Wallace Malcom Hargrove crossed it decades before the start of the story with the rapes of dozens upon dozens of women. Once the reader finds out about this, along with his lack of care regarding his son Rich, all sympathy for the man is lost.
• The Woobie: Emma, Dani and all the girls that Jacobs has turned into the "stars" of his snuff films. They're kidnapped by an utter monster, converted into vampires, tortured, raped, and then subjected to this over and over again. At least the ones that can be saved are, and Emma ends up working with Stadt and Erin.
