The partnership between Amazon Prime Video and Blumhouse, which has already given us the Welcome to the Blumhouse anthology, continues with teen time travel slasher-comedy Totally Killer. Before the film arrives on October 6th and while we wait for a trailer, Prime Video has dropped some first-look images featuring stars Kiernan Shipka, Olivia Holt, Julie Bowen, and Randall Park.
Shipka stars as a 17-year-old who finds herself accidentally traveling back in time to 1987, the year of the original killings by the “Sweet Sixteen Killer”, who has just arrived in the present day to kill again.
The whole tone of the trailer is exactly as I hoped, which is a mix of Final Girls and Happy Death Day. Shipka should be right at home having spent years balancing humor and horror in Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
Behind the camera is Always Be My Maybe director Nahnatchka Khan, reuniting with Park on this one. The script is by Jen D’Angelo, David Matalon, and Sasha Perl-Raver.
Also in the cast are Charlie Gillespie, Lochlyn Munro, Troy Leigh-Anne Johnson, Liana Liberato, Kelcey Mawema, Anna Diaz, Stephi Chin-Salvo, Ella Choi, Jeremy Monn-Djasgnar, Nathaniel Appiah, and Jonathan Potts.
