10 Horror Movie Endings That Get Worse The More You Think About It
6. Happy Death Day 2U - A New Babyface
While the Happy Death Day series has always been comedy first and other genres second, there is no denying how absolutely terrifying the premise of reliving the day you're murdered over and over again is.
So even though the ending of the slasher sequel was played for laughs, the implications that it sets out for the HDD universe is unnerving, to say the least.
Us fans of the series love to drag on mean girl Danielle, and we were all glad to see more of her in the sequel. So adding those two things together, the ending that shows her getting trapped in her own time loop should be hysterical.
At first, it is. But the more you think...
The ending of Happy Death Day 2U shows the gang picking up trash as punishment for the destruction they've caused to the school with their time-loop machine when a government agent comes to collect the kids. DARPA has confiscated their device and plans to create a time loop of their own... with a test subject: Danielle.
Seeing Danielle wake up screaming may not be as hilarious as you'd think. If she's screaming herself awake the way Tree had before, then that means there is a new babyface killer in her loop. Why would the government want a device that puts people into a murderous time-loop?
And what happens when they learn how to harness the device's power for their needs? Sounds like the beginning of a very different movie.
