Need a movie to watch tonight? We got you covered. Turn on the 2023 comedy horror movie Bodies Bodies Bodies, starring Rachel Sennott, Amandla Stenberg, and Myha’la Herrold.
Directed by Halina Reijn, the movie released to positive reception from audiences and critics, and quickly developed a cult following.
The movie pokes fun at Gen Z culture as it follows a group of 20-something-year-olds at a house party in a secluded area during a hurricane watch. Tension rises within the group and one partygoer is found dead.
Amid the mysterious death, the storm outside has worsened and the group has lost power in the mansion.
The evening further devolves into a nightmare as members of the group turn on one another and begin exposing each other’s secrets and insecurities.
Bodies Bodies Bodies exists comfortably in the comedy horror scene, and doesn’t do much to subvert the genre. It is comparable to movies like House of Wax, Scary Movie, and The Cabin in the Woods while shifting its attention from the millennials of the early aughts to the social-media-obsessed Gen Zers of the present day.
Get a bit spooked, laugh a lot, and perhaps learn a bit about the younger generation.
Wondering why we are recommending Bodies Bodies Bodies tonight? Out of all nights? Start getting the movie queued up and we’ll tell you why.
Why Watch Bodies Bodies Bodies Tonight?
The answer is quite simple: Bodies Bodies Bodies was recently added to the Netflix catalog. So, if you missed this movie during its theatrical release and didn’t want to shell out $20 to buy the DVD or rent it on VOD, now is your chance.
Thought to be Sennott’s breakout role, following her role in the indie favorite Shiva Baby, she has since been on the up-and-up. More recently, the actor starred as one of the leads of the teen comedy Bottoms, opposite Ayo Edebiri, and was announced to be working on a comedy show for HBO about a codependent friend group, which has already drawn comparisons to Lena Dunham’s seminal series Girls.
Sennott is a standout in Bodies Bodies Bodies, and has launched an exciting and expansive career since starring in the movie. The same can be said for Stenberg and Herrold, who have gone on the star in the movies Emergency and Leave the World Behind, and actor Maria Bakalova, who is set to star as Ivana Trump in the upcoming biopic The Apprentice, alongside Sebastian Stan and Jeremy Strong, and delivered a touching performance in the indie movie Fairyland, which is seeking distribution.
Such impressive and diverse talent deserves to be witnessed on the screen.
Synopsis: “When a group of rich 20-somethings plan a hurricane party at a remote family mansion, a party game goes awry in this fresh and funny look at backstabbing, fake friends, and one party gone very, very wrong.”
