We’re at the stage now that Hollywood is doing remake Scream ripoffs that they have been doing since the mid to late 90s from the first Scream that Wes Craven directed. Sigh…
Heart Eyes isn’t necessarily bad but it’s got ALL the tropes of the slasher genre that Scream did with its sequel/remake. It’s the closest comparison since it’s clear that this is a straight forward slasher film with the who’s the killer reveal and motivations. It’s cheap, it’s quick…

Ultimate Edition: 4.1/5
Theatrical Cut: 3/5
