Every Rom Com 22: Happy Death Day
Episode description
This week Every Rom Com kicks off our Horror Rom Com series as Cybil and Jen discuss “Happy Death Day” - a time loop slasher film with a side of romantic comedy. We’ll discuss Blumhouse Productions, director Christopher Landon, and a cast of up and coming actors that made this movie great. We’ll talk about our favorite horror movies, our favorite time loop movies, and how this movie intersects with both genres. And we’ll talk about what it means to make a feminist horror film, and how “Happy Death Day” lives up to that title, as we dig into this 2017 hit starring Jessica Rothe and Israel Broussard.
