'''''Final Exam''''' is a 1981 SlasherMovie.
It's midterms week at a small North Carolina college. Only a few students are left. Perfect hunting grounds for a SerialKiller, don't you think?
Not to be confused with [[VideoGame/FinalExam the survival horror video game series]].

* BigBad: The unnamed SerialKiller terrorizing the college.
* CacophonyCoverUp: The Gammas ''fake a mass shooting'' so that some of them can cheat on a chemistry test.
* DevelopingDoomedCharacters: There's fifty minutes between the first kill and the second.
* EventTitle
* HorrorDoesntSettleForSimpleTuesday: Finals week.
* TheLastTitle
* ShoutOut: Radish has posters for ''Film/TheToolboxMurders'', ''The Corpse Grinders'' and ''Murder is my Beat'' in his room..
* TemptingFate: Mitch says that "There ain't not one bit of crime on this campus... Not yet." Cue a SerialKiller.
* TheUnreveal: [[spoiler:We don't learn a thing about the killer.]]
