Horror and comedy fans should prepare themselves because Death of a Unicorn is galloping into theaters this spring, and it’s bringing a mix of laughs, shrieks, and you guessed it… unicorns. This isn’t your average unicorn fairy tale – this is a darkly twisted comedic joyride that turns the tables on everything we thought we knew about mystical horned mammals. Why the long face?
Our story begins with Elliot and Ridley Kintner, a father-daughter duo who accidentally strike a wayward unicorn with their car while traveling to a weekend vacation. What begins as a bizarre and unfortunate accident descends into pandemonium involving a billionaire boss, supernatural healing, and some very angry parents of the aforementioned unicorn. It’s a crazy blend of horror, comedy, and fantasy that guarantees a gripping and thrilling cinematic ride.
We aren’t going to lie, they had us at killer unicorn, but the cast is making this one a must-see. Paul Rudd of Ant-Man and Clueless stars as Elliot, the kind-hearted but unlucky dad. Jenna Ortega of Wednesday and Scream delivers, as usual, a standout performance as Ridley, his too-smart-for-her-own-good daughter. Alongside Paula and Jenna are Will Poulter (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3), Téa Leoni (Madam Secretary), and the always charming Richard E. Grant (Loki). With a cast like this, who needs unicorns? We all do is the correct answer.
Mark your calendars because March 28, 2025, is Death of a Unicorn day. It is also National Hot Tub Day, so we got that going for us, which is nice.
This film has it all: genre-defying surprises, elusive billionaires, glitter, and Paul Rudd as a hapless father. It has the quirky feel of an indie darling, the anxiety-provoking suspense of a horror film, and the sob-inducing family feels—all crammed into one glittery, mystical movie delight.
And here’s the kicker: it’s from A24. The studio that brought us cinematic perfection like Hereditary and Everything Everywhere All At Once. Expect it to be weird, wonderful, and maybe disturbing, but in a fun way. Trust us, this movie is as rare as seeing a unicorn and a sasquatch at a Brooklyn warehouse party on Mother’s Day. It doesn’t get any rarer than that.
