HAPPY DEATH DAY 2U (2019)
Happy Death Day 2U was released to theaters on February 13, 2019. At the time, I didn’t find it to be quite as fun/funny as the first one, although I did find it to be a generally entertaining slasher when I rewatched it in preparation for this post. Many of the same filming locations from…… Continue reading HAPPY DEATH DAY 2U (2019)
HAPPY DEATH DAY (2017)
Happy Death Day was released to theaters on October 13, 2017. I found it to be a really fun (and funny) slasher movie, and I really loved the design of the Babyface killer’s mask. (I like masks!) The main campus and most of the filming locations were in New Orleans, although some notable scenes were…… Continue reading HAPPY DEATH DAY (2017)
FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY’S (2023)
Five Nights at Freddy’s was released on October 27, 2023. It was filmed in the greater New Orleans area, with the Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza building set up in an empty parking lot in Chalmette, LA. Unfortunately it was just a facade that was torn down after filming, so there was not much to see there,…… Continue reading FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY’S (2023)
THE FINAL DESTINATION (2009)
The Final Destination (aka Final Destination 4) was released to theaters on August 28, 2009. Although this is my least favorite of the series (so far – with a 6th one on the way, we’ll see!), it ended up being the one I got to visit the most locations for since it was filmed just…… Continue reading THE FINAL DESTINATION (2009)

HATCHET II (2010)
Hatchet II was released to theaters on October 1, 2010 and on DVD on February 1, 2011. I always enjoyed this one even more than the first, and thought the expanded backstory on Victor Crowley was really well done. And of course it didn’t skimp on the gore either. Much like the first one, only…… Continue reading HATCHET II (2010)
HATCHET (2006)
Hatchet premiered in 2006 and was released to theaters on September 7, 2007. A DVD release followed on December 18, 2007, which is when I finally got to see it! I found it to be a fun movie, though if I’m being totally honest, I’ve always preferred Hatchet 2, which I thought was more interesting…… Continue reading HATCHET (2006)
