Critics Consensus

Receiving some sparkle from Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega's father-daughter rapport, Death of a Unicorn's broad satire is a bit too on the horn but makes for an entertainingly splattery creature feature.

Audience Says

An imaginative and grizzly take on a mythical creature, Death of a Unicorn slashes the rainbow and supplies campy, gory, fun.

Death of a Unicorn operates on a level of “it’s fine”, without landing any knock-out blows.

Rated: 3/5

...[Death of a Unicorn] is the good-taste version of an innately bad-taste idea.

Empire Magazine

This is sadly unsuccessful as both an eat-the-rich satire and a schlocky B-movie.

Rated: 2/5

I've truly never seen a unicorn story quite like this. Wild, magical and bloody horror anchored by a father-daughter story led by Jenna Ortega and Paul Rudd.

Rated: 3.5/5

People often say there is nothing new and unique in cinema. This movie proves that wrong - part comedy, part horror. Somehow it all comes together and will have you laughing out loud while also delivering a powerful message.

Rated: 3.5/5

…if you love animals, you probably don’t want to see them treated cruelly, so the basic revenge conceit of Death of a Unicorn seems like a non-starter…the kind of Hollyweird production that makes you wonder how such misjudged films come to be made...

Rated: 2/5

Slightly biased because I adore all of the actors in this film and it has UNICORNS. But this film is funny and dark with UNICORNS.

It’s a silly movie, with an attempt of a message about “eat the rich,” but moreover it’s a movie worth watching if you just want to pass the time
