Christopher Landon directs Freaky, a new horror comedy about a teenage girl who accidentally swaps bodies with a serial killer. A character into a soft cute cute middle-aged man must summon the courage to stop the killer. The battle of wits is both scary and funny in a way familiar to Happy Death Day.

In the poster, a teenage girl is shaving in a way so violent that it bleeds. Why? Because she swapped bodies with a middle-aged serial killer.

Featuring POKEMON Detective Pikachu, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, starring Kathryn Love Newton of Big Little Lies and Vince Vaughn of True Detective, The Cell and Wedding Crashers, The story of a 17-year-old high school girl who swaps bodies with a middle-aged serial killer.

Millie, a high school girl, becomes the new target of the town's famous killer, the Butcher. However, the killer's mysterious old dagger fails to kill Millie, causing the two to swap bodies. While Millie has to convince her classmates that her uncle's body is a high school girl and does a voluptuous dance, she also has 24 hours to return to her own body or the exchange will never be reversed.

On the other side, the killer with the appearance of a high school girl is much more convenient to kill both inside and outside the campus. The killer finds that the girl's body is the perfect cover for a killing spree, so he repeatedly commits the crime, and the crime scene is very bloody. In such an extreme situation, Millie fights with the killer, and according to the usual scenario, Millie must eventually switch back to her own body. So how did she solve the problem?

Directed and co-written by Christopher Landon, Swap Bodies also stars Alan Ruck, Uriah Shelton, Mitchell Hoog, Katie Finneran and more.
