Happy Death Day (2017) — "Whoever's killing you knows it's your birthday."

from The Kulturecast Hosted by Weirding Way Media

Chris and Eric get stuck in a time loop of their own as they try to work out who keeps killing them in Happy Death Day. Christopher Landon's horror comedy stars Jessica Rothe as Tree, a sorority girl forced to relive the day of her murder over and over until she can figure out who her killer is. It's a small-budget horror film from Blumhouse, and, let's be honest, can they do any wrong? We get into the time-loop formula, Rothe's performance, and the Blumhouse model. Chris Stachiw, the Doctor of Podcasting, and Eric Kniss talk Happy Death Day, Jessica Rothe, Blumhouse, and so much more.
