Happy birthday? More like Happy Death Day.
Christopher Landon (Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones) directs Blumhouse’s latest in which a college student (Jessica Rothe; La La Land) relives the day of her murder with both its unexceptional details and terrifying end until she discovers her killer’s identity.
What I find so interesting about the concept is that not only are we witnessing the birth of a final girl but we’re also watching as she must evade her death to become one.
Pegged for release on October 13, 2017, the film stars Jessica Rothe, Israel Broussard, Ruby Modine, Charles Aitken, and Rachel Matthew.
Landon directs from a script he co-penned with Scott Lobdell. Landon, who penned Disturbia and several Paranormal Activity sequels, also directed Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones and Paramount’s Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse.
