"Instead of making a movie that mirrors the events of the game, we said fuck it and just remade Happy Death Day with no budget."

That only cost 4.8M to make.

 

[AJUMP23]

It will probably be terrible, but I am willing to give the concept a shot. And if it is you get to redo your lives, what horror is in that?

 

[Esca]

I'll check it out between loving the game and having regal pass it's a easy watch.

I also agree with the first youtube comment that says they should give different endings to different theaters, Clue-style.

 

[Trogdor1123]

They tried that with Black Mirror and people didn't really love it.

I didnt know that. Seems like it could be fun, if difficult to do

 

[Fbh]

I mean...I get why they didn't just make a 1:1 recreation of the game. It's a mediocre horror movie that becomes enjoyable because you actually get to make choices which result in multiple outcomes.

Not that this looks good though. (also come on, they could at least have put a hot blonde in there)

I am willing to wait a little bit to see more but mostly am neutral on these things till I see more. Really loved the game and overall experience I got from it. Definitely is one of those titles that seemingly is perfect for some horror flick since the entire game feels like a horror flick(by design). I remember watching someone stream a little bit of the game and stopped to avoid spoiling any more of the game for myself

Wasn't Until Dawn already a movie? What's the point?

To take the controller away from you and have you pay to watch

 

[Hawking Radiation]

Why is Sony hell bent on making this IP a thing? Who asked for this? Who wants this?

No one

Sony

 

[Oberstein]

The lack of blonde girls is a problem.

Interesting trivia about Gary Dauberman, the writer / producer :

A shitty movie is called a "daube" in french

 

[Nankatsu]

To survive they have to make it Until Dawn.

Holy shit, almost as bad as:

 

[Complistic]

That only cost 4.8M to make.

And was actually good

If Wendigos are not important, please explain to me what IS important.

I jest. But this is in no way going to be as good as the game, it just isn't. The only way it could be is if it was exactly inline with the game, and had the same actors and even then.. maybe

Half the fun was actually playing it and that is in no way transferable to film.

 

[The Fartist]

I see titties, I will watch...

 

[bitbydeath]

Trailer looks good.

 

[Party McHardy]

The Wendigo storyline was the best part of the game, so without it, I'm not really interested in this.

They're shown in the trailer I posted above.

That would actually be cool and make this movie interesting...but it's Sony lol

Sony's lower budget (especially non Superhero) works can be hit or miss. So far I'm really liking what I'm seeing with that trailer, creatively, and I hope that they didn't just give away too much in the trailer.

It's like a mixture of P.T. and Until Dawn.

This will either be one of those conceptual movies I'll enjoy for the first 3/4 of it (and it has a bad or cheesy ending) while I wonder what could have been, or it will somehow do a decent enough job with that last 1/4 to the point where it sticks a good enough landing.

Gran Turismo stuck it's landing imo.

I went in with low expectations and it turned out surprisingly good.

 

[JCK75]

I have no reason to believe it won't be just as incredible as their Marvel films... and by that I mean complete shit.

 

[EverydayBeast]

Nothing like the game the game is better than people give it credit for, straight game and clear narrative this could be good if you look at it through a typical horror film glasses. I thought the actress was very good in Hellraiser Hulu.

 

[AJUMP23]

looks ok.

 

[mckmas8808]

i think this is a cool idea, looks much better than i thought it would. I'll be on the lookout for a trailer.

Gaffers are no fun as usual.



Just copying the game would be boring, i don't want to watch the game in theatres

I totally agree with you. I like the premise here.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Saw this in 4DX, it was fine, some cool deaths at least, though there's a very short"found footage" segment in it which I thought was better than the entire movie; there was one jump scare that was pretty well done and actually got me.
Abe was the "smartest" character, Nina was just annoying.
And it is connected to the game seems to be a prequel if I understood the ending correctly.
