“It's Buddy!”
Directed by Casper Kelly

The premise
A magical, singing orange unicorn holds his cast hostage in a surreal TV-show dimension, as he becomes more and more demented.
Horror Vault's take
Behind the bright colors and catchy songs of a beloved children's TV show lurks something deeply wrong with its star. Buddy, an exuberantly singing orange unicorn, traps his castmates inside a warped, surreal dimension of his own making — and the longer they stay, the more unhinged he becomes. What begins as absurdist comedy curdles into genuine dread as the line between entertainment and nightmare dissolves completely.
