Happy Death Day

Tree Gelbman, a beautiful and confident college student, wakes up in a dorm room, on what seems like an ordinary day. She is a senior at a prestigious university, surrounded by her peers who all aspire to make the most of their final semester before graduation. However, Tree's only concern is how to prepare herself for the real world after college, where she fears being unattractive and unwanted due to aging. After a heated argument with her roommate Lori, Tree skips class to attend a party, where she meets Carter Davis, a charming, philosophy major who captures her attention. Though Tree's interactions with other students often leave them unimpressed, her chemistry with Carter sparks an interest that helps break the ice within them. However, Tree's carefree day comes to a violent end when she wakes up in a dorm room after being murdered, only to be surprised by the presence of a masked figure. Strangely, she wakes up the following day a victim of murder, once more finding herself trapped in the identical crime scene. Panicked, Tree tries to piece together the events leading up to her murder and realize that on each subsequent "day," the situation continues to unfold exactly as it did before. Tree first discovers that the repetition begins every time she awakens, with the entire course of action precisely the same. The party is the same, the arguments with her roommates and friends are the same, and even the realization of her murder takes place at the same hour. Each iteration appears to have no sequence of events initiated that results in preventing the murder from occurring. Every reliving, Tree makes slight, unconscious adjustments while re-living her death day. She makes the acquaintance with a psychology professor named Dr. Lori. Her friendships, mostly disinteresting to her, start to feel significant. It was all due to being stuck in a single day having the recurring similar sequence. Her connection with Carter, now developed and tangible becomes meaningful to her. Tree starts focusing on her potential killer, trying to distinguish some crucial pattern from each iteration, from a stray clue or a memory from a side character that might hold the key. To accomplish her self-provision goal, she decides to start piecing together a single day. Tree learns, within the numerous failed possibilities existing throughout her ongoing life of loops. Tree also starts gaining power – to better see a person as exactly whom they truly are. She possesses extra options to try on more costumes. Due to them more than understanding it already.
