Review
It’s time to get freaky!
“Welcome to the Blumhouse” presents us with an intriguing and hysterical horror-comedy film, Freaky. Directed by Christopher Landon, the man behind Happy Death Day and Happy Death Day 2U – this movie will have you falling over with laughter while clutching your chest in terror.
The storyline of Freaky revolves around a teenage girl named Millie Kessler (played by Kathryn Newton) who swaps bodies with a notorious serial killer known as The Butcher (played by Vince Vaughn). Millie has to find a way to switch back to her own body before the clock runs out, or she’ll be stuck forever in The Butcher’s murderous ways.
The plot starts off in a sleepy suburban town called Blissfield where all seems ordinary until The Butcher starts wreaking havoc. While on the prowl for his next victim, he stumbles upon Millie who is trying to make her way home after attending her high school’s homecoming dance. The Butcher attacks Millie with an ancient Aztec dagger that he stole from one of his previous victims. However, instead of killing her, he unwittingly sends them both into a body-swapping frenzy with only 24 hours to change back.
What makes Freaky stand out among other horror-comedy movies is its unique take on the “Freaky Friday” concept. Unlike other body-swapping films where the two characters end up learning valuable life lessons from each other, Freaky takes us on a rollercoaster ride of hilarious and terrifying moments that leave us wanting more.
The cast of Freaky is top-notch. Kathryn Newton brilliantly portrays both sweet and timid Millie as well as twisted and sadistic killer The Butcher convincingly. Vince Vaughn delivers a standout performance as well, successfully portraying the nuances of both characters’ personalities – from slasher villain to awkward teenage girl.
One memorable quote from the movie comes from Millie’s best friend, Nyla (played by Celeste O’Connor), who says, “If this movie has taught me anything, it’s that I’m never having sex again!” – a witty and comical nod to the traditional horror cliche of having sex leading to death.
The film also boasts an impressive score and popularity as it peaked at number one on streaming platforms like Amazon Prime and FandangoNow. The cinematography adds to the overall aesthetic of Freaky with its darker tones contrasting with the bright colors of the high school setting.
The production team did an excellent job in creating gory and gruesome special effects that’ll leave you cringing but still wanting to watch more. The film’s editing is also seamless, with smooth transitions between scenes, never leaving us bored or disengaged.
Freaky has already sparked talk of potential sequels and spin-offs. However, some critics have criticized the movie for relying too much on its humor rather than scares. Still, Freaky is a must-watch for those who enjoy a good horror-comedy flick.
Overall, Freaky is a fun-filled ride that’ll leave you feeling both terrified and amused. Its unique take on body swapping alongside brilliant performances from its cast makes it stand out among other slasher films. So grab your buttered popcorn and prepare for a freakishly good time!
