Heart Eyes

Heart Eyes from director Josh Ruben (Werewolves Within) and writers Phillip Murphy, Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) and Michael Kennedy (Freaky) works as both a postmodern romcom and a postmodern slasher, probably better for fans of the latter than the former as the kills are on the gnarly side. The overall light tone means there’s not much suspense but there is one great bit. Olivia Holt (Cloak & Dagger) and Mason Gooding (Scream 2022 and VI) are suitably funny and charming as the meet-cute not-a-couple in principal jeopardy, and it did some fun things with the genres at play.
