"Buddy," a horror-comedy reimagining a beloved children's unicorn character as a menacing figure, has generated early critical momentum from its Sundance 2026 premiere, where it was praised for blending gory humor with unsettling tone shifts under director Casper Kelly. With a theatrical release scheduled for August 28, 2026, the Tomatometer currently sits in the low-to-mid 80s based on roughly three dozen reviews, reflecting strong festival reception but limited volume ahead of wide release. Traders are monitoring how additional post-premiere notices and audience scores will influence the final tally, as horror-comedies often see score volatility once mainstream critics weigh in on its satirical edge and practical effects.
