Review of Happy Death Day (2017) by Chris B — 11 Nov 2017

It's impossible to take this film too seriously and ignore comparisons to Groundhog Day; but you might as well because this is a still a different enough film to not feel like a repetitive rehash (ironically).

It's a shame that it doesn't live up to it's horror promotion and shies away from its premise of marrying humour and horror since this could have really strengthened the film and made it more memorable.

Nevertheless, this doesn't at all hamper any enjoyment of Happy Death Day because it's a very fun one; a bit of horror here, a lot of laughs there, lots of fun throughout with a charismatic, lovable lead.
