Blumhouse’s FREAKY Rated R for Strong Bloody Horror Violence & More

Blumhouse and Happy Death Day director Christopher Landon’s new horror-comedy Freaky with Vince Vaughn and Kathryn Newton looks like fun. And today we have word the film has been slapped with an R-rating via the MPAA for “strong bloody horror violence, sexual content, and language throughout.”

Bring it on, I say. This goes well with earlier news were none other than Stephen King took to Twitter to sing the trailer’s praise. Check out his tweet below.

Directed by Landon from a script he wrote with Michael Kennedy, the film is described as a twisted take on the body-swap genre, and centers on high school student Millie Kessler (Kathryn Newton) who becomes the newest target of the Butcher (Vince Vaughn), an infamous serial killer, during her senior year. When the killer’s magic dagger causes her to swap bodies with him, she discovers she has only a day to reverse the switch or remain trapped as a middle-aged murderer hunted by the city, while the real killer targets her classmates at Homecoming.

It also stars Celeste O’Connor, Misha Osherovich, Uriah Shelton, Dana Drori, Katie Finneran, and Alan Ruck. Freaky is set to hit theaters on November the 13th.
