Nothing about it ever stood out to me as awkward or bad. And this is the film with the hippie lady who does turn in a genuinely bad performance.
shareI thought she was good. Maybe she got bad reviews because she's Mormon and refused to do the movie if there was nudity in it. Way too woke for 1982.
shareShe was an extremely attractive hot woman back then....too bad she didn't go nude.
Very sexy looking in this pic from the movie:

She's not even wearing anything special. Just a plain old shirt and she still looked really good.
But you're right. I watched it again and her acting really isn't the greatest. Some parts were better than others, though. But, wow she was really attractive.
Also, hippie lady was a throw away character. She wasn't the greatest either, which I'm sure people would admit, but nobody is going to mention that as much. Chris was one of the main characters / final girl. Of course her performance is gonna be more scrutinized.
I thought she was a good lead. Never understood the criticisms some have of her.
shareShe was fine. A very wholesome final girl. I've certainly seen worse acting in a friday movie.
