Went into this thinking it would be another cheesy horror movie, only to find that it was smart and funny. The "Groundhog Day" premise has been used before, but I thought they gave it a clever twist with the main character's sometimes comical deaths. In some ways it reminded me of the first Scream film. It had comedic elements, strong female lead, the mystery of figuring out who the killer was. I also thought it was impressive that they made the main character kind of unlikable in the beginning and had you rooting for her by the end. I really liked it and its sequel.

I hate scary movies. I can't handle them. I didn't really want to see this, but I had moviepass at the time and figured if I hated it I'd just leave. Turned out to be such a good film I bought it! This movie leans heavily on the comedic side of the spectrum. There may be a few jump scares and there are definitely some gruesome things that happen, but nothing that will keep you up at night or give you nightmares. My entire family adores Happy Death Day and its sequel, and we quote it every time someone has a birthday. 'Cause it's their birthday and they ain't gotta pick up the phone!

Here’s a film that gave me a mashup of “Groundhog Day” and “Scream” that I never knew I wanted! The film is a pretty great little horror film about a college student that keeps repeating the same day that she’s murdered on and must find out who the killer is in order to stop the time loop. The film never takes itself too seriously and its self-aware attitude also helps while the entire cast does a pretty great job as well. Great fun for any fans of horror.

I actually didn't watch this film until recently, because the title and poster really didn't appeal to me. It didn't sound like something I would enjoy, but a friend urged me to check it out, and I ended up loving both of the Happy Death Day movies! I truly wish they had done a better job marketing this, because I feel I missed out by waiting so long.

Though I personally could've used more blood, Happy Death Day is a breath of fresh air into the horror genre and proof that both horror comedy and PG-13 horror should not be dismissed. It's a fun introduction into an intimidating genre. Handling it's leading ladies transition very believably, HDD delivers every step of the way.
