Editors' Picks: Our Favorites From the Week of Sept. 238 of 10
Repeat Viewing of the Week
Even though October isn't until next week, a little Halloween pre-funk never hurts. So we're easing into the month with a movie that was way more fun than it had any right to be: Happy Death Day. Essentially a horror version of Groundhog Day, Jessica Rothe plays a sorority sister who is stuck reliving the day of her murder until she solves the mystery of who killed her and why. The film falls apart a bit in the final act, but the clever premise and Rothe's charm make it a fun journey nonetheless. This week we also learned the title of the upcoming sequel, Happy Death Day 2U, which is scheduled for release on Valentine's Day 2019. Not gonna lie: We'll be disappointed if there aren't some greeting card tie-ins for the sequel.
