After realising that the two horror movies I enjoy are Happy Death Day and Totally Killer, I\u2019ve come to the realisation that I love horror when it\u2019s a secondary genre. Horror archetypes and themes are usually boring on their own. But when horror is the secondary genre, and especially when the main genre is fantasy or science fiction, you get an actually compelling story. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am tired of the futility of horror movies and, frankly, unrealistic abilities of most horror movie villains. There\u2019s no fun in watching a bunch of people die while knowing they absolutely will die. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want a compelling plot where whether or not the characters will die is actually up for debate. Take this movie, for example. The original storyline was purely horror. But when you add the element of Jaime travelling to the past to save her mother, it disrupts the status quo. This is no longer simply a horror movie where everyone is destined to die but now also a time travel movie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And by their very nature, time travel movies bring hope. At their essence, they are about second chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Julie Bowen Is A Boss And She Should Not Have Died In Totally Killer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"510\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MV5BOTY1ZDI4MjktMGUzZC00MDYxLTlmZWEtZDIxNjdhMTcwZGExXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTUzMTg2ODkz._V1_-1024x510.jpg?resize=1024%2C510&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MV5BOTY1ZDI4MjktMGUzZC00MDYxLTlmZWEtZDIxNjdhMTcwZGExXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTUzMTg2ODkz._V1_-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C510&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MV5BOTY1ZDI4MjktMGUzZC00MDYxLTlmZWEtZDIxNjdhMTcwZGExXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTUzMTg2ODkz._V1_-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C149&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MV5BOTY1ZDI4MjktMGUzZC00MDYxLTlmZWEtZDIxNjdhMTcwZGExXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTUzMTg2ODkz._V1_-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C382&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MV5BOTY1ZDI4MjktMGUzZC00MDYxLTlmZWEtZDIxNjdhMTcwZGExXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTUzMTg2ODkz._V1_-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C765&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/MV5BOTY1ZDI4MjktMGUzZC00MDYxLTlmZWEtZDIxNjdhMTcwZGExXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTUzMTg2ODkz._V1_-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1020&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The most unrealistic part of the setup of this movie is the fact that Julie Bowen died. She had been planning for this event for decades. She had a top notch security system, she took self-defence lessons AND she had a gun. She should not have been beaten by whats his face. That&#8217;s honestly so ridiculous. But I guess I have to forgive this one since it&#8217;s the main point of the movie. Without her death, Jaime would never time travel, she would never form a connection with her mother and she would never make amends for her behaviour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the few movies where I am fully siding with the parents. Jaime is, at times, cruel. Honestly, I don&#8217;t think the boundaries her mother has in place are unreasonable. Jaime is a teenager living in a town filled with weirdos. Case in point: the very fact that someone murdered her mother over such a stupid reason (a reason I won&#8217;t disclose as I think you deserve to find out on your own). But with her second chance, Jaime is given a chance to appreciate just how traumatising it is to watch your friends die. She has a newfound appreciation for her mother and is able to actually show gratitude and love when she comes back to the present. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Diversity Is Always A Win<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/222716_1365605.jpg.1500x1000_q95_crop-smart_upscale-1024x683.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/222716_1365605.jpg.1500x1000_q95_crop-smart_upscale.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/222716_1365605.jpg.1500x1000_q95_crop-smart_upscale.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/222716_1365605.jpg.1500x1000_q95_crop-smart_upscale.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/clearthelens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/222716_1365605.jpg.1500x1000_q95_crop-smart_upscale.jpg?w=1500&amp;ssl=1 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>No, I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s pandering to your audience to actually show the reality of human life. Not every single person in the world is white. And especially when you look at a colonised country like America which is build on immigration: yeah not everyone is going to be white. Get over it! It doesn&#8217;t matter that it&#8217;s set in the 80s. People of colour existed in the 80s. Plus, this is quite literally a time travel horror movie. I&#8217;m not expecting it to be fully realistic. I&#8217;m expecting it to cater to a 21st century audience. And 21st century audiences want to see themselves in the media they consume. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This movie does feature some super annoying horror movie tropes: the biggest being the unreasonably invincible murderer. But it more than makes up for them with its twists and turns. I like that at its heart, this is a movie about second chances and a daughter&#8217;s relationship with her mother. It&#8217;s surprisingly sweet for a horror movie. But then again, Happy Death Day also explored a mother-daughter relationship. Maybe that&#8217;s my thing. I only enjoy horror movies when they draw upon my mummy issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Relevant Reviews<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clearthelens.com\/index.php\/2022\/09\/06\/marvel-sidelined-doctor-strange-in-his-own-movie\/\">Marvel Sidelined Doctor Strange In His Own Movie<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clearthelens.com\/index.php\/2020\/02\/25\/knives-out-the-power-of-good-amongst-moral-corruption\/\">Knives Out: The Power Of Good Amongst Moral Corruption<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clearthelens.com\/index.php\/2020\/02\/09\/blockersashockinglyprogressivetakeonregressivefamilyvaluesanditsfailings\/\">Blockers: A Shockingly Progressive Take On Regressive Familial Values And Its Failings<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To be honest, horror archetypes and themes are boring on their own.
