A girl named Tree wakes up in a strange dorm room, feeling like she’s been here before. She walks across campus and sees many things. It’s her birthday. She is mean. She is murdered in a different place.
A girl named Tree wakes up in a strange dorm room, knowing she’s been here before. She walks across campus and sees many things. It’s still her birthday. She is scared and mean. She is murdered in a different place.
About this point, I decided I’ve seen this gimmick too many times. Just like Bill Murray, she decides to fight back.
In the end, she is not mean and lives.
Logic Holes:
She could have picked up a weapon of her own and waited to kill the killer.
She could have gotten in a car and drove far away at any time.
She could have pulled off his mask and known who the killer was before the next round.
And these are just off the top of my head. Don’t think about this one too hard.
