We've seen how Time Loop cinema moved from magical romcom to suspense thriller to sci-fi action, and now Dan and Keith jump back into the loops for slasher horror, and back to romcoms, now with a 2020s spin. First up, Happy Death Day, a proud part of Blumhouse's "But what if the popular thing were horror" collection, as a college student must relive her final day over and over until she figures out who's killing her. Then Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti are stuck at the destination wedding that never ends in Palm Springs. And to wrap up, a surprise bonus movie that may not have true time loops, but still captures the themes and emotional hooks that made the sub-genre resonate. Which movie did it best? Listen and find out!
