10 Small Details You Only Notice Rewatching Happy Death Day
10. Right Where We Left Off
Let's start right at the end.
Wasn't the final scene to Happy Death Day a perfect ending to such a comedic take on the slasher genre? Carter messes with Tree a little bit, they wrestle on the bed before sharing a kiss and everyone in the audience goes, "aww". But wait, why did Carter's roommate, Ryan suddenly barge in to add almost nothing to scene?
In fact, he seemed to kind of take away from the emotional moment, so why have it in there? Well, if you saw the sequel, you would see everything that built up to this moment.
Remember the back and forth? Ryan sighs that Tree's back in the dorm, Carter tells him to get out and Ryan responds with, "I'm not sleeping in my car again, it smells like hot pockets and feet." Well, we actually follow Ryan from his car, all the way to this interaction.
More about that little trip from the car to the dorm will be covered in the rest of this article but it's kind of cool to see just how well-connected these two movies are.
