 Ladies, it doesn’t matter if you’re into scary movies or not. ~Happy Death Day~ is getting a sequel, and here is what you can expect. If you haven’t seen Happy Death Day, which came out in 2017, here is a quick run-down of what you missed.  

 

This movie follows the story of Tree Gelbman, played by Jessica Rothe, a college girl who is pretty much living a much scarier version of the movie Groundhog Day. She keeps reliving her birthday over and over again, and every day she ends up being murdered by her own personal stalker. Talk about a fun birthday, am I right? Anyways, she ultimately has to figure out how to stay alive as well as who the psycho in the creepy mask is.

 

 

Happy Death Day 2U brings us back to Tree reliving the same day, her birthday, but with an even more death-filled twist. Spoiler alert, she gets murdered again #vibes. Let me tell you, this time she’s not the only target. The murderous psycho is also killing all of her friends. In order to stop the cycle this time, they have to figure out how to fix the machine that Tree’s nerdy friend created that put them in this mess. It will put Tree in a position where she has to make a tough decision, one that could potentially cost her her budding relationship with her love interest, Carter (insert heart eyes emoji).

 

 

Unfortunately, it is hard to recreate a movie that is all about a day repeating itself. Unless you really liked the OG movie and can’t help but go back for more, then this may not be the horror film for you. If you were a fan of Tree and want to see what other ways she can get her throat slashed, then this is definitely the film for you.

 

Happy ~Death Day~ Collegiettes!
