Children's TV Turns Gory in "Buddy"
The fascination with beloved children's mascots and characters transforming into bloodthirsty killers continues to captivate audiences in cinema. Following the success of "Five Nights at Freddy's" and "Willy's Wonderland" starring Nicolas Cage, another independent film is set to delve into this dark theme.
Titled "Buddy," this upcoming film takes a unique approach by centering on a children's television show. In "Buddy," adorable mascots unravel and become sadistic killers when the children participating in the show don't play along.
Produced by Roadside Attractions and directed by Casper Kelly, known for his work on "V/H/S Halloween," "Buddy" boasts an impressive cast, including Cristin Milioti, Topher Grace, Patton Oswalt, and Keegan-Michael Key.
The film is slated for a theatrical release on August 28th. You can get a glimpse of the twisted and wild horror that awaits in the trailer and official synopsis below:
"Do you remember Buddy, the bright orange unicorn and star of the beloved children's TV show that brought joy and life lessons into your living room?
"In the vibrant world of 'It's Buddy!', a group of children spend their days singing, dancing, and helping Buddy spread happiness. But when one child refuses to play the game, Buddy isn't pleased, and cracks begin to appear in this seemingly perfect world."
