Death of a Unicorn (15)

What if, rather than sparkly fairy creatures, unicorns were fearsome beasts with deranged eyes, huge teeth that could sever an arm, and horns covered in the entrails of their victims?

This horror comedy posits that question. College student Ridley (Jenna Ortega) and her father Elliot (Paul Rudd), a corporate lawyer, drive into the Canadian Rockies for a retreat with Elliot’s billionaire boss (Richard E. Grant) and his family, the Leopolds (Téa Leoni and Will Poulter), a clan of pharmaceutical executives.

They eventually run into a spot of bother. More specifically, they run into a unicorn. But while Ridley forges a spiritual connection with the mythical animal – she grasps its glowing horn and is immediately sucked into a trippy celestial hallucination – Elliot decides to put it out of its misery with a. It’s a messy business; both are splattered with unicorn blood, which they soon realise has miraculous curative properties. What they don't realise, however, is that their horns act as transmitters, and the creature’s body is beaming out a distress signal, summoning its relatives. This satirical B-movie is a wild ride, and a bloody good time.
