In November,
Happy Death Day director Christopher Landon returned with another cheeky addition to the ever-expanding horror-comedy genre with Blumhouse s
Freaky, a fun, charming, emotional, and gleefully gory blend of
Freaky Friday and
Friday the 13th â hell, let s call it a cross-contamination of the two. While it s certainly not easy to replicate the spunky success of his past two movies, Landon co-wrote and helmed another critical darling and winning audience favorite, finding the right balance of punchy pulp and sugary sweetness to create another bubbly and bloody popcorn flick with plenty of laughs, an abundance of slaughter, and a big, beating heart to boot.
