Happy Death Day (2017)

Hey! Sorry for the few days off. I've been real busy and haven't had a chance to watch movies. But I'm back! I'll make it up by reviewing a few films a day, maybe this coming weekend.

Anywhoo, tonight's Halloween Month Movie Marathon review is on Happy Death Day (2017).

A sorority girl goes through a pretty routine day of college life, until that evening when a person in a hoodie and college mascot facemask violently murders her! But to her surprise, she wakes up... that same morning. She quickly discovers that she's reliving her "death day" over and over again. Will she be able to break the cycle by identifying her killer?

This was a pretty cool film! It's essentially Groundhog Day, but with a murderous twist. It's also an interesting look at introspection, as the main character gets a chance to re-evaluate her choices every day and see the consequences of her actions. She starts to realize she's not exactly proud of the person she's become. But every day is a chance to start over, and she has quite a few of them lined up!

If you like murder mystery stories and are looking for a unique take on it, this is your kind of film!
