Happy Death Day 2U

The first film was a dumb film that made a joke out of its own stupidity, so it’s not a bad thing that “2” is even more stupid. There’s some strange alchemy at play here in which it becomes more amusing as the plot holes stack on top of each other, reaching a fever pitch at its climax in which, without getting into spoilers, a nonsensical betrayal that lacked all logic had me laughing my ass off. “U” is a horror-comedy sans the horror, and it will be a small miracle if a sequel can retroactively make sense of it.
