Film Review: Caroushell (2016)

 Tired of being used and abused by obnoxious children, a carousel unicorn escapes and goes on a killing spree. 


  Well, you have to admit that this is a unique premise and  certainly makes a change from the 800th (Insert thing) Shark movie. 
 
 "So you have a badly-CGIed unicorn killing people, then?"  I hear you ask. 

Ha ha ha. 

No. 

You have a literal wooden unicorn with no animation whatsoever  that's being physically shifted by somebody offscreen, which does make the sex scene a bit weird.

Sex scene.  This movie has a sex scene involving a wooden unicorn.  Oh dear god. 

 It's almost certainly a shot at some of the weirder bronies out there. 

There's also  graphic murders with some surprisingly good practical effects so you can't say this movie didn't go all-in. 

In short: this is a very low budget slasher movie that just happens to star a wooden horse and doesn't take itself too seriously.  The fact that our homicidal horse provides a running commentary on his actions makes it even ...better?

 You might love this. You might hate it. You might even get a stiffy during the aforementioned sex scene in which case, what the fuck is wrong with you? 

That's all folks.
