    Edit
    • Trivia
      According to director Christopher Landon, Tree Gelbman's punchline, "Who takes their first date to Subway? It's not like you have a foot-long," was improvised by Jessica Rothe.
    • Goofs
      After Tree and Danielle are accidentally run over by a bus, Tree removes her from the suspect list. Since the bus driver was clearly not the murderer, it did not prove that Danielle is not the murderer.
    • Quotes

      Tree Gelbman: Tim, I know you're really not into girls. But it's okay. Love is love. Now go out there and get yourself a fine piece of man-ass!

    • Crazy credits
      The opening Universal logo gets abruptly sucked into oblivion and then restarts, referencing the film's time loop element. This happens twice before the logo finally plays uninterrupted.

    I really enjoyed it
    As a fan of Groundhog Day, Final Destination and Edge of Tomorrow, I was surprised how much I liked it. It was just well done and it worked on all levels. I watch a lot of movies and hate most of them, but this one worked for me.

    FAQ2

    • How could Tree get Carter's reference to Janis Joplin, but not to Groundhog Day or Bill Murray?
