Topic: Death of a Unicorn

Another fantasy film from late last month, Death of a Unicorn, released to mediocre reviews. This is disappointing, as I actually had my eye on this one. Has anyone seen this Paul Rudd/Jenna Ortega film? How was it?

Road Master My guess is that it's suffering from bad advertising. I can't really tell what kind of movie it's supposed to be. Comedy, horror, something else?

Brandon Reed It's a *clears throat* comedy fantasy creature feature horror satire of big business, especially cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

Brandon Reed You may be right, though. I have noticed that a movie that can't be easily categorized will often not review well because critics don't know what to make of it.

lyzander cross I hadn't heard of it till this thread but after watching the trailer I'm intrigued, I could see it having a similar appeal to Leprechaun, Chucky or the Gremlins

David Rachau Only ads I ever saw for this were either on this app, or Reddit. All the ads were was an animated movie poster with one of the stars getting "gored" by what I suppose is a unicorn's horn. Not the actor, or character getting gored, mind you, but the movie poster.

Brandon Reed I haven't even seen that ad. Why are some advertising campaigns so lackluster?

Brandon Reed That definitely happens. Sometimes workplace politics even get involved. But this is a case of the ads that were paid for and produced failing to inform the intended audience of what they were trying to advertise.

Michael Ols Weird that likewise doesn't date any of this. And anyone else have the problem of being unable to see what they type due to the keyboard? On android

Brandon Reed @likewisesupport I have the same keyboard issue, at times. I'll take a screenshot and forward it via email to the team, if I can replicate the issue, but I'll flag this comment so y'all will know it's not just me, lol.

Michael Ols Movie didn't gel. Packing was off. Missed opportunity
