HAPPY DEATH DAY Reviews and overview

Movie timeline:

Film Facts:
The mask was constructed by Tony Gardner, the same man who built the infamous “Ghostface” mask from every Scream film. Apparently, the design was personal. Landon explains, “During pre-production… I was expecting my first son. I don’t know if I just had babies on the brain, or if I was subconsciously scared to become a father, but that baby image was floating around in my head. Tony made us a pig mask, too, but when I wore the baby mask in the office, I scared a co-worker, and we thought… yeah, this is it. This is the one.”
Christopher Landon was inspired by films such as Groundhog Day, Scream (1996), Halloween (1978), Sixteen Candles, Back to the Future, E.T. the Extra-terrestrial, The Goonies, Gremlins, An American Tale, Innerspace, Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, Black Christmas (1974) and Heathers
The film’s original title was Half to Death.
