\n\tAn orange unicorn has some tricks up his sleeve as the host of a children\u2019s television show in the teaser trailer<\/a> for Buddy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tRoadside Attractions<\/a> releases director Casper Kelly\u2019s horror-comedy movie in theaters Aug. 28 after its premiere earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival<\/a>. Cristin Milioti<\/a>, Keegan-Michael Key<\/a>, Topher Grace<\/a>, Delaney Quinn, Patton Oswalt<\/a> and Michael Shannon<\/a> round out the cast.<\/p>\n

\n\tBuddy<\/a> centers on the bright orange unicorn known for hosting a classic children\u2019s program. When one child doesn\u2019t feel like joining the fun, Buddy\u2019s mood changes, and the seemingly perfect world proves to not be what it seemed.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe trailer splices moments of terror alongside scenes of the titular unicorn dancing with children on the set of his show, It\u2019s Buddy! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tKelly, known for creating Adult Swim\u2019s viral 2014 horror short Too Many Cooks<\/a>, helmed Buddy from a script he co-wrote with Jamie King. Tyler Davidson, Drew Sykes, Raphael Margules, J.D. Lifshitz and Tracy Rosenblum serve as producers.<\/p>\n

\n\tExecutive producing are Kelly, King, Kevin Flanigan, Dexter Braff, Roberto Linck, Nathan McAuley, Emilio Schenker, Gideon\u00a0Tadmor, Adam J. Wilde, Geoff Yaw and\u00a0Ryan J. Kelly.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn his review of Buddy<\/a> for The Hollywood Reporter, chief film critic David Rooney wrote that the movie \u201cstretches its sketch-comedy idea to feature length by upping the gore and the demented detours but doesn\u2019t go far enough to be as extreme or disturbing as it wants to be.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tRooney added that the film\u2019s \u201cbiggest plus is the inspired voice work of Keegan-Michael Key as the title character.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An orange unicorn has some tricks up his sleeve as the host of a children\u2019s television show in…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":924736,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[28],"tags":[55281,56869,171,348514,114956,53,125077,134366,124933,263273,75223,67,132,68],"class_list":["post-924735","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-buddy","tag-cristin-milioti","tag-entertainment","tag-keegan-michael-key","tag-michael-shannon","tag-movies","tag-patton-oswalt","tag-roadside-attractions","tag-sundance-film-festival","tag-topher-grace","tag-trailer","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116893798551960086","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/924735","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=924735"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/924735\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/924736"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=924735"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=924735"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=924735"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
