The Happytime Murders

August 17, 2016

Director Brian Henson

Genre Action | Comedy | Crime

Cast Melissa McCarthy, Elizabeth Banks, Joel McHale, Maya Rudolph

Rating R

Release Date August 24th, 2018

“When the puppet cast of an ‘80s children’s TV show begins to get murdered one by one, a disgraced LAPD detective-turned-private eye puppet takes on the case.”

From director Brian Henson (The Muppet Christmas Carol, Muppet Treasure Island), The Happytime Murders is a kids movie gone bad showing what really happens with The Muppets behind closed doors. The trailer looks absolutely nutty but i'd be lying if I didn't say I was intrigued. The cast includes Melissa McCarthy, Elizabeth Banks, Joel McHale, and Maya Rudolph. Check out the official UNRATED trailer below!!
