Summer Slash: Happy Death Day And Happy Death 2U Horror Movie Reactions

EPISODE NOTES AND LINKS

Something tasty is getting cooked up with The Menu a new horror comedy starring Ralph Fiennes, Nicholaus Holt, and  Anya Taylor-Joy. 

Nicholaus Holt ( the boy in classic about a boy, the beast in the xmen movies, R in Warm Bodies zombie movie, Nux in Fury Road )

Ralph Fiennes ( he is in a ton of shit too but I know he as Voldemort, Hades)

Anya Taylor-Joy? Would not recognize her in a show called Atlantis, I never saw The Witch nor seen The Queen’s Gambit.

She is in a lot of upcoming high profile stuff i am interested in, she is playing Furiosa in the Mad Max spin-off prequel, Last Night in Soho coming in October, and the viking movie The Northman.

I saw some ignorant posts on Facebook trying to convince everyone The Fly with jeff goldbloom is not a horror movie … it definitely is in my opinion.  He is literally losing control as he transforms into a monster and hurts both himself and others in the process, plus it is really grotesque.  Even Google agrees is it is horror slash science fiction. 

Now lets run down some Predator movies.

We heard the new one is about a female native american pitied against the predator and they seem to be rewriting the history once again to claim this is the first spring break trip to earth in the 1800s or thereabouts.

There was a ton of props including a pistol in Predator 2 that suggested the predators have been visiting earth for a long time, but that faded into legend and was not expanded upon on film...not directly anyway, a natural jump off point for a Predator 3 would have been what happened to all the The Yautja (ya-OOT-ja) on the ship we see.

We got instead a sling of inconsistent sequels, and we tell you are favorite ones.

Tonight’s movies are HAPPY DEATH DAY AND HAPPY DEATH DAY 2U we have slammed them together as a double feature because they are really one long time travel horror story. GIRL NAMED TREE KEEPS GETTING MURDERED AND HAS TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO STOP IT FROM HAPPENING WITHOUT PERMANENTLY GETTING HERSELF OR HER FRIENDS KILLED IN WHAT IS REVERED AS THE HORROR MOVIE VERSIONS OF GROUNDHOG DAY ON THE BASIS THAT A SINGLE DAY IS REPEATED UNTIL YOU COMPLETE THE CORRECT VERSION OF EVENTS  AND MAKE YOURSELF A BETTER PERSON AS FATE HAS IT TO ESCAPE THE TIME LOOP.
