Funko Toys Documentary ‘Making Fun’ Gets Netflix Premiere Date

Published

Thanks to their POP! vinyl line, Funko is absolutely dominating the toy scene right now, unleashing so many new toys at such a steady clip that I’m not sure anyone working for the company has slept in the last couple years. It feels like you can’t go *anywhere* without seeing POP! toys *everywhere*, and the brand is showing no signs of slowing.

Love ’em or hate ’em, the line of big-headed vinyl toys will go down as being one of the most iconic lines in toy history, and the coolest thing about the line is that Funko has used it to show a whole lot of love to the horror genre. Hell, they just unveiled an upcoming vinyl toy of Black Phillip from The Witch, which just shows how cool they are.

In any event, we know you guys like toys so we figured you’d be happy to hear that the new doc Making Fun – The Story of Funko is arriving on Netflix on May 24!

“We are extremely proud of the film as both a testament to the vibrant Funatic community and power of pop culture’s ability to bring people together,” the company says.

“Old-school American horror is back as Adam Green’s iconic Hatchet series returns in a blood-soaked, fully Unrated collection, uniting all four films for the first time.

“Unleashed at a time when the fun of 80s slashers had all but disappeared from the cinematic landscape, Hatchet ushered in a new era of terror with its unapologetic brutality and introduction of Victor Crowley, the modern bogeyman, who ruthlessly hunts those who dare tread into his swamp. With each installment, the stakes escalate, delivering bigger, bloodier scares and a relentless barrage of inventive kills. So gather all your pieces, because it’s time to return to his swamp and learn once and for all that some legends truly never die.”

Other films coming soon from Dark Sky Selects include The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974), The House of the Devil, The Innkeepers, and Faces of Death. Stay tuned for updates.
