Composer Michael Andrews (Donnie Darko, Freaks & Geeks, Bridesmaids, Bad Teacher, Daddy’s Home, Me and You and Everyone We Know) is reuniting with director Nahnatchka Khan (Fresh Off the Boat, Young Rock) on the upcoming slasher comedy Totally Killer. The film starring Kiernan Shipka, Olivia Holt, Julie Bowen, Randall Park, Charlie Gillespie, Lochlyn Munro & Liana Liberato is set 35 years after the murder of three teens, when the infamous “Sweet Sixteen Killer“ returns on Halloween night to claim a fourth victim. The movie follows a 17-year-old girl who ignores her who comes face-to-face with the masked maniac and accidentally time-travels to 1987, the year of the original killings. David Matalon (The Clearing) & Sasha Perl-Raver and Jen D’Angelo (Hocus Pocus 2, Quiz Lady) wrote the screenplay based on a story by Masalon & Perl-Raver. Jason Blum (Get Out, Halloween) is producing the Blumhouse production with Adam Hendricks (Vengeance, Black Christmas) and Greg Gilreath (The Voyeurs, Cam). Andrews has previously co-scored Khan’s feature directorial debut Always Be My Maybe. Totally Killer will premiere on October 6, 2023 exclusively on Prime Video.
