Heart Eyes
When the "Heart Eyes Killer" strikes Seattle, a pair of co-workers pulling overtime on Valentine's Day are mistaken for a couple by the elusive couple-hunting killer. Now, they must spend the most romantic night of the year running for their lives.
Why it matters
A tense Valentine’s Day slasher that turns romantic clichés into lethal traps, blending dark humor with sharp social commentary on love and consumerism.
- Olivia Holt anchors the chaos with a grounded performance amid the mayhem of a city gripped by fear and forced romance.
- The Heart Eyes Killer’s couple-centric spree riffs on slasher tropes with a timely Valentine’s Day backdrop, mixing horror with satirical edge.
- Seattle’s rainy, neon-lit streets provide a moody, claustrophobic setting that amps tension and echoes the isolation beneath the holiday’s glossy surface.
- Fans of meta-slasher fare and holiday horror will appreciate the film’s twist on love’s dark side, even if the marketing subplot sometimes overshadows the killer’s menace.
