We continue Body Swap December with a look at one of the few new films to actually come out of 2020: Freaky. Coincidentally also a body swap film, it follows Kathryn Newton as a nebbish high schooler who accidentally swaps bodies with a local serial killer hellbent on staying in her body forever. Originally titled Freaky Friday the 13th, it's a mash-up of every body swap trope imaginably plus a heavy-handed dash of horror fan service to boot. Scary Stories We Tell's Jess Byard and The Projection Booth's Mike White joins Chris to talk about the film, the state of horror in 2020, and its similarities to other Blumhouse films.
