Review by Blake Haughton

When I first saw the trailer for this movie, I thought it was a joke. I never expected a studio to green-light a project about a girl trying to solve her own murder before it happens (which when I think about it that way, it seems more like what an action movie plot would be rather than a horror plot.)

Thankfully, my initial impressions were wrong, and Happy Death Day is an entertaining and engaging romp through a college sorority sister’s birthday, which also just happens to be the day she dies. During her first “life,” you see she's a real ice queen bitch, which opens up many, many options for people who might want to off her. Everything about our central heroine is a little pretentious, even down to her name, Tree (short for Teresa).
