This theory is used commonly in modern horror films, It was discovered by Carol Clover who is a film professor. It states that there is usually a girl in a horror film who is in fact the last woman standing. This is usually in modern horror films because of the new era of women also known as post feminist women. These women are either just as strong or even stronger than the 'typical' man.
Some examples of films which incorporate 'the final girl' are films such as Saw II, the character Amanda, takes risks and she appears to be a kind and sincere character even though she is strong.
Usually in trailers of movies that have this element, even from the trailer we can sympathise for the protagonist, and we are shown parts of the equilibrium that help the audience to connect with her and then it shows parts that make us feel like we want to help her because she is in some danger.
I am going to incorporate something like this in my trailer because it will connect well to my narrative.
