At this point, Blumhouse is synonymous with provocative and punchy indie horror. Some of their greatest hits include Get Out, Insidious, Halloween (2018), and M3GAN. Now they are at it again with their latest gnarly thriller, Totally Killer.
Time Travel, Murder, and Coming of Age as Totally Killer Goes Totally 80s
35 years after the murderous spree of the “Sweet Sixteen Killer” rocked her town, Pam (Julie Bowen) has not forgotten the horrors of those deaths. However, her daughter, 17-year-old Jamie (Kiernan Shipka) doesn’t really see the danger in present day. She ignores her mother’s overprotective warnings, which sends her face to face with the masked killer. As she runs for her life, she time travels back to 1987, the year of the original killings.
As she navigates the unfamiliar and outrageous culture of the 80s, Jamie teams up with her now teenaged mom (Olivia Holt) to take down the killer once and for all.
