2000 film by John Ottman

Anson Mount originally auditioned for the dual role of Travis / Trevor Stark, but had wanted to play the role of the antagonistic Toby instead; according to Ottman, he "aced" his audition for Toby, and was cast in the role. Matthew Davis auditioned for the role of Travis / Trevor, and was cast, marking his first major film role. Eva Mendes was cast in the role of Vanessa, which had originally been a smaller role, but was expanded to allow her character to be a potential red herring.

Principal photography took place in Toronto, Ontario, Canada over a period of 47 days in the fall of 1999. The film's opening sequence on the airplane, which was shot over a period of three days, was originally written to have occurred on a boat; however, the script was altered last minute after the production crew came across an airplane set from the film Pushing Tin (1999). Due to the film's low budget, director Ottman chose to make use of the set, and staged the sequence on a plane instead. The bell tower, however, was constructed solely for the film, for $150,000. Interior sequences, however, were filmed in Toronto. The amusement park Ontario Place served as the filming location for the mining amusement ride sequence; the mine ride featured in the film was in fact a log ride that had been drained of its water for the impending winter months, which was re dressed to appear as a mine themed ride. Ottman stated that many of the lighting techniques featured in the filmparticularly the use of strobe lightingwere inspired by Ridley Scott's Alien (1979) and James Cameron's Aliens (1986).

The sequence featuring Lisa and Trevor at the bar (followed by her death scene) was written and shot in Los Angeles after principal photography had finished, as the film's producers felt the film needed a death sequence earlier on to establish a sense of danger. Originally, the production crew intended to make a fake kidney for the sequence (as the character awakens to find her kidney has been removed), but due to budget and time restraints, opted to use a goat's kidney from a butcher shop. Because a goat kidney is anatomically larger than that of a human, it had to be truncated to reduce its size.

With the plot centered on a group of film school students, Urban Legends: Final Cut uses a self reflexive narrative approach and features numerous references and allusions to cinema and other horror films. The opening sequence on the airplane was inspired by the Twilight Zone episode "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" (1963). Lisa's abduction sequence in which she is incapacitated with a plastic garment bag in a coat closet is an homage to Black Christmas (1974). The character of Lisa is attacked with a plastic garment bag and suffocated until unconscious in the film's first murder scene. Similarly, the first murder sequence in Bob Clark's Black Christmas (1974) features an identical death in a closet. Film scholar Jim Harper, in his book Legacy of Blood: A Comprehensive Guide to Slasher Movies (2004), cites Urban Legends: Final Cut as a "post Scream slasher" influenced by Italian giallo films, featuring a "distinct Argento influence" present in the film, particularly in its killer's attire. Harper also notes direct references in the film to the work of Alfred Hitchcock as well as Michael Powell's Peeping Tom (1960), which is paid homage in Sandra's filmed murder scene.

Urban Legends: Final Cut was released on DVD by Columbia Pictures Home Entertainment on February 16, 2001. In July 2018, it was announced that Scream Factory would release the film on Blu ray. It was released on November 20, 2018.

The film brought in $21.4 million in the United States and brought in $17.1 million overseas, bringing its total box office revenue to $38.5 million. The film was considered a moderate success, due to the budget of the film being $14 million. However, the film only grossed about half of what the first film brought in ($72.5 million). Although it did manage to top the box office in its opening weekend, something its predecessor failed to do.

Dave Kehr of The New York Times wrote of the film: "[Director] Ottman doesn't have the firm grasp of tone necessary to make his deliberate ambiguities seem other than simple confusion, nor the sense of humor necessary to turn the deliberate cliches into effective satire. " Robert Koehler of Variety criticized the film's screenplay for being "[too] stuffed with movie references and jokes," and that it "slavishly follows in lock step with the prior film's Ten Little Indians like plot line." Writing for the Los Angeles Times, David Chute wrote: "The coolest single element in the walk don't run horror sequel Urban Legends: Final Cut may be its atmospheric setting [the] concept seems tailor made for that kind of ingenuity, for a little bit of sly wit and playfulness. Movies like Final Cut are bunker mentality productions, safe, square and purely functional, like buildings made from poured concrete." Roger Ebert awarded it two stars out of four, declaring that the movie "makes the fatal mistake of believing there is still life in the wheezy serial killer on campus formula," although he did concede that the production credits were "slick" and the performances "quite adequate given the (narrow) opportunities of the genre." The BBC echoed this in a review by Michael Thomson, who thought that the meta in jokes of the murder scenes did not work and that the film "keeps the mediocrity [of the first film] alive as it unleashes yet more unsavoury nonsense." The A. V. Clubs Nathan Rabin echoed similar sentiments, writing: "A sequel with the misguided chutzpah to rip off its derivative predecessor, Final Cut proves once again that the self referential slasher film is every bit as tiresome and devoid of new ideas as the unironic bloodbaths that inspired it in the first place." The meta critic site Rotten Tomatoes lists the film as having an approval rating of 10% among critics based on 86 reviews, with an average rating of 3.40/10. The site's consensus is: "This teen horror movie brings nothing new to an already exhausted genre. And it's bad. Really bad". On Metacritic, it has a weighted average score of 16 out of 100, based on 25 critics, indicating "overwhelming dislike". Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "D+" on an A+ to F scale.

Urban Legends: Final Cut was nominated for Saturn Award as the Best Horror Film, and won Teen Choice Award in the Choice Movie: Horror/Thriller category.

A sequel titled Urban Legends: Bloody Mary, was released in 2005.
