On Valentines Day over the past several years a killer has targeted couples murdered them. The movie opens with one such situation. A woman is out on a business dinner with a man when she see’s her ex. She does something to make him jealous and they end up in the cross hairs of the killer even though they are not really a couple. This one surprised me with the story. This is equal parts romantic comedy and horror. In fact if you removed the horror element and just played it straight this would be one of the better rom coms. They had pretty good chemistry and the set up for their romance organic and rang true. There was also a pretty good amount of gore and a couple of unique kills. The twist for me left a lot to be desired and where this one goes off the rails a bit. On the one hand it was exactly what I thought it was and then it wasn’t. Without spoiling anything it felt like they were going for a Scream type thing that didn’t land at all. Then the 3rd act was put at odds with what we just saw and felt like it belonged on another movie. I still enjoyed it and a must see for fans of the genre. Every one else will not enjoy it as much.

""Heart ❤️ Eyes 👀" is a deadly hilarious horror comedy movie!!! I laughed so much the whole movie!!! It is most definitely a slasher movie, so if you do not enjoy blood and gore, then this movie will not be enjoyable for you at all. The dialog is cheesy, but in all the best ways. If you are a slasher fan and love horror comedies, then this will definitely be worth a watch!!! I had fun watching this movie!!! Make sure to watch the credits for a surprise!!! 😍"
"Heart Eyes (2025) is a bold fusion of romantic comedy and slasher horror, directed by Josh Ruben. The film stars Olivia Holt as Ally, a marketing executive disillusioned by love, and Mason Gooding as Jay, a charming consultant. Their budding relationship becomes perilous when a masked serial killer, known as the Heart Eyes Killer, begins targeting couples in Seattle on Valentine's Day.
The movie offers a fresh take on genre-blending, delivering both humor and suspense. Critics have praised its inventive approach; Third Coast Review notes that "Ruben also clearly knows his romcom tropes and applies just the right amount of skepticism about romance to both mock them and honor them as having a certain amount of charm." However, some reviews, like that from The Guardian, feel it "fails to capture the charm and wit of its predecessors," suggesting it doesn't fully live up to its potential.
Despite mixed critiques, "Heart Eyes" stands out for its unique blend of genres, making it a noteworthy addition to the horror-comedy landscape. If you're seeking a film that combines laughs with thrills, this might be the perfect choice for your Valentine's viewing.

"This is such a great movie. I never would have thought that the Horror genre would mix so well with Romantic Comedy. The serial killer is effortless and soooo violent. This is one of the first horror movies that actually catered towards the female demographic. I could feel the female targeted fanservice from a mile away. Everyone loves a hot antagonist in a mask. What a great movie, and a great experience!"
