“We gotta stop him! And get my life back.” RLJE FIlms & SHudder have released an official trailer for a hilarious horror comedy mash-up called It’s A Wonderful Knife. Here’s the quick pitch: It’s A Wonderful Life by way of Scream. 🤣 🤣 After saving her town from a psychotic killer, Winnie Carruthers’ life is less than wonderful. When she wishes she’d never been born, she finds herself in a nightmare parallel universe where without her, things could be much, much worse. This sounds like exactly the kind of kooky, absurd-but-fun horror concept we need more of these days. From the same writer as that other body swap slasher Freaky from 2020. It’s A Wonderful Knife stars Jane Widdop, Jess McLeod, Joel McHale, Katharine Isabelle, William B. Davis, and Justin Long. Bold of them to reveal the killer in this trailer, because it’s really about everytihng else that happens with her trying to stop him than figuring out who he is. I can dig it.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Tyler MacIntyre’s It’s A Wonderful Knife, direct from YouTube:
A year after saving her town from a psychotic killer on Christmas Eve, Winnie Carruthers’ life is less than wonderful — but when she wishes she’d never been born, she finds herself in a nightmare parallel universe and discovers that without her, things could be much, much worse. Now the killer is back, and she must team up with the town misfit to identify the killer and get back to her own reality. It’s A Wonderful Knife is directed by genre filmmaker Tyler MacIntyre, director of the genre films Patchwork, Tragedy Girls, and Good Boy, plus a segment in V/H/S/99 previously. The screenplay is written by Michael Kennedy (writer of Freaky). Produced by Seth Caplan, Michael Kennedy, and Daniel Bekerman. RLJE Films will release It’s A Wonderful Knife in select US theaters on November 10th, 2023 this fall. It’ll also debut on Shudder later.
