As a splatter friendly, over-the-top horror comedy, Ready or Not franchise works best when its ill fated heroine, Grace (Samara Weaving), is wearing her blood-soaked wedding dress, and dodging death at every turn. In Ready or Not: Here I Come, she is rescued from the first film's scene of crime, only to be pulled back into another ordeal where she has to survive until the following dawn, while merciless assassins howl for her head on a stick. She's not just Uma Thurman nameless Bride: she's her, times six or seven.
This time around, Grace is handcuffed to her younger sister (Kathryn Newton) as she chases the sun's arrival. They are pursued by the Danforth siblings: Titus (Shawn Hatosy) and Ursula (Sarah Michelle Gellar). Stylish deaths are aplenty: people will explode like overfilled balloons, betrayals will take place, and the heroine will eventually... well, let's just hope she wears a different dress in any upcoming sequels.
