Folks saying the script was wild as hell. Trying to go in as blind as I can with that one.
It had me once I heard it was from the guy that wrote Barbarian, which I really liked. Then the Teaser was elite, so I was hyped for it. Finally, I heard the story that Jordan Peele fired two managers over losing the bidding war for this movie's rights...I don't need to hear or see anything else,

I finally got around to watching Death of a Unicorn, which continues this year's trend of horror comedies that aren't bad enough to criticize but good enough to praise. It's fine for passing the time, but nothing to rush to watch (unless you're a big fan of unicorns).

A father and daughter accidentally hit and kill a unicorn while en route to a weekend retreat, where his billionaire boss seeks to exploit the creature's miraculous curative properties.

The humor was good enough for some chuckles, but rarely on some true "cracking up" vibes. There's no actual horror, unless you count gory kills, which were over the top to the point of being the movie's funniest moments. The plot is fine with some character growth for Paul Rudd and his relationship with his daughter, but you know this story.

The unicorn really is the draw. We get a surprisingly creative mix of unicorn kills and fun lore unique to the creature. So, there's originality to an extent. But considering the cast and the creative premise, this kinda disappointed me. It's nothing special.

I didn't watch the entire trailer just in case. I watched about a minute of it. 'Barbarian' was dope af so I got high hopes for this one. Chick put me on to the teaser a minute ago. I'm locked in

.


I was a big fan of barbarian and I try to stay away from trailers at times. When this come out?
