PREMISE

A man and his teenage daughter accidentally crash into a unicorn while en route to a crisis management summit with his boss, Dell Leopold, and Leopold’s family. The Leopolds seize the unicorn. Their scientists discover that the creature is endowed with supernaturally curative properties, which the Leopolds seek to exploit. However, as they delve deeper into their research, they discover the deadly consequences of their actions. The unicorn’s mate arrives and begins to hunt down and slaughter those involved in the exploitation of the dead animal.

Our Main Editor, Phil Roberts, had this to say about the film in his Letterboxd review:

Okay, #DeathOfAUnicorn is an absolute riot. Led brilliantly by Paul Rudd, Jenna Ortega and the scene-stealing Will Poulter, the film is a blast.

Aside from some ropey CGI, it’s a slick, gory comedy gem boasting the DNA of Jurassic Park. It’s a legitimate popcorn banger!
