Moritz Mohr directs Boy Kills World, which stars Bill Skarsgård as a “boy” who vows revenge for his family’s murder. Famke Janssen plays Hilda Van Der Koy, the deranged matriarch of a corrupt post-apocalyptic dynasty that left the boy orphaned, deaf, and voiceless.
Driven by his inner voice, which he co-opted from his favorite childhood video game, boy trains with a mysterious shaman, played by Yayan Ruhian. He wants to become an instrument of death and set himself loose on the eve of the annual culling of dissidents.
Bedlam ensues as boy commits bloody martial arts mayhem, inciting the wrath of carnage and blood-letting. As he tries to get his bearings in this delirious realm, boy soon falls in with a desperate resistance group, all the while bickering with the apparent ghost of his rebellious little sister.
Other cast members are Jessica Rothe, Michelle Dockery, Sharlto Copley, Brett Gelman, Isaiah Mustafa, and Andrew Koji.

Written and directed by Christopher Landon, Happy Death Day 2U follows, once again, Jessica Rothe’s character Tree as she leads the returning cast of Happy Death Day.
The first Happy Death Day movie was a surprise hit, so Blumhouse decided to produce a sequel. The film is a horror version of Ground Hog Day. The main character lives her day repeatedly until she finds her killer.
The movie is available online. The theme moves with interesting, repeating twists and comic turns. This time, our hero, Tree, discovers that dying over and over is surprisingly more natural than the dangers that lie ahead. That means there are more dangers in the second movie.
I fell in love with Beary McCreary’s music for the popular Outlander series on Starz. He’s behind composing music for the time-traveling series since the first season.
As you listen to his interview, he calls the Happy Death Day franchise a “horror time travel movie.” I am sure he came up with that description from the Outlander storyline. It’s good to know he loves time-travel-themed projects.
After watching the second trailer, I admit the sequel looks better than the original movie. I figure we acclimated to Tree solving the mystery of who her killer is while dying repeatedly. The comedy of the situation is taken up a notch.
The third trailer, Trailer 2R, is fun to watch if you need a good laugh. It’s hilarious. Blumhouse produced a winner, but horror fans will miss the blood and gore.
The movie clip is a big teaser. The killer wears the baby face mask that comes off, revealing who it is. The characters get to see who it is, but we don’t. I am not even sure when it gets shown in the movie. Still, the film comes across well, and the scenes are intense.
Jessica Rothe, as Tree Gelbman, talks about the movie’s storyline and how the sequel differs from the original film.
Interview with Jessica Rothe & Israel Broussard shows the chemistry between these two actors. They share what happens in the sequel.
Directed by Christopher Landon, Happy Death Day is an evil twist on the comedy Groundhog Day. The movie follows a college student, played by Jessica Rothe (La La Land), who relives the day of her murder with both its typical details and terrifying end until she discovers her killer’s identity.
The producers, known for producing Whiplash and Get Out, are calling the movie an original and inventive rewinding thriller, but I wonder if they have seen Groundhog Day and Before I Fall.
With that, horror fans will flock to this movie because, if you watch the trailer and TV spots, it looks like a great horror movie.
Written and directed by Bethany Ashton Wolf and based on the novel by Heidi McLaughlin, Forever My Girl, follows country music superstar Liam Page, played by Alex Roe. He left his bride, Josie, played by Jessica Rothe, at the altar choosing fame and fortune instead.
However, Liam never got over Josie, his one true love, nor did he ever forget his Southern roots in the small community where he was born and raised.
When he unexpectedly returns to his hometown for the funeral of his high school best friend, Liam is suddenly faced with the consequences of all that he left behind.
Whether the movie follows the book, I don’t know. But, below should give you an idea of the storyline. I am guessing it is content from the book.
“I was never supposed to be a rock star. I had my life all planned out for me. Play football in college. Go to the NFL. Marry my high school sweetheart and live happily ever after. I broke both our hearts that day when I told her I was leaving. I was young. I made the right decision for me, but the wrong decision for us. I’ve poured my soul into my music, but I’ve never forgotten her. Her smell, her smile. And now I’m going back. After ten years. I hope I can explain that after all this time. I still want her to be my forever girl.”
The Forever My Girl Blu-ray/DVD hit the streets, which means it is streaming, too, and I am looking forward to watching the movie. The country music sounds uplifting in the trailer. Before I watch the movie, I will make sure I have a box of tissues nearby.
For some reason, this trailer pulls my heartstrings. This movie looks like a chick flick who loves country music.
My guess is the movie is predictable with a happy ending.
