‘The Fuzzies’ Trailer Unleashes Killer Puppet Mayhem Ahead of May Release
Terror Films Releasing is teaming with filmmakers Josh Funk and Dustin Vaught to release horror-comedy The Fuzzies, centered around the puppetry and practical effects of its murderously playful puppets.
Watch the new trailer below, highlighting some of the Pee-Wee’s Playhouse-style shenanigans as puppets are unleashed. Playtime is over.
The Fuzzies releases on Digital on May 1, 2026.
It follows “a group of friends who reunite at their childhood friend’s eerie estate after her death, where they soon uncover a nightmare: the grotesque puppets from her famous children’s TV show are alive. Blending practical puppetry, stop-motion horror, and dark humor, The Fuzzies explores friendship, fame, and buried monsters.”
Rocío de la Grana (Rose), Baylee Toney (Mary), Dustin Vaught (Mick), and Gordy Cassell (Shirley/Sunny Smiles) star.
Director Josh Funk, who co-wrote and produced with Dustin Vaught, said in a statement, “The Fuzzies is a horror-comedy born from a fascination with the uncanny, specifically the strange power of puppets and stop-motion animation to feel both comforting and deeply unsettling. Drawing inspiration from children’s television of the 1970s and ‘80s, the film explores how bright sets, felt textures, and cheerful characters become disorienting when stripped of their warmth.
“The Fuzzies embraces the tactile imperfections of handmade filmmaking to tell a story about nostalgia curdling into terror, and the monsters we carry with us from childhood,” he continued.
Look for The Fuzzies next month across a variety of platforms including Vudu, Amazon, Tubi, Chilling, and more.

Keanu Reeves Describes Untitled Time Loop Thriller from Director Tim Miller as ‘Groundhog Day’ With Sharks
At one point known as Shiver, Tim Miller‘s (Deadpool, Terminator: Dark Fate) next movie doesn’t yet have a title, but star Keanu Reeves offers a very intriguing tease this week.
Chatting with Collider, Reeves explains what drew him to the mysterious upcoming project from director Tim Miller. He tells the outlet, “Sharks. Time machine. Groundhog Day.”
That lines up with early plot details that surfaced earlier this year, with the film said to center on a “smuggler in the middle of a deadly double-cross while on a job in the Caribbean Sea.”
That synopsis continued, “Surrounded by bodies, hostile mercenaries, and bloodthirsty sharks, the man finds himself in a time loop and scrambling to break the cycle.”
Callie Cooke (“The Stranger”), Stefan Kapičić (Deadpool), Steven Waddington (Sleepy Hollow), Nicholas Duvernay (“The White Lotus”), Abraham Popoola (Cruella), Anastasia Safonov, and Bobby Holland Hanton (Thor: Love and Thunder) also star.
Ian Shorr (Splinter, Infinite) penned the screenplay for the sci-fi thriller, which had previously been described as having shades of Edge of Tomorrow and The Shallows.
Stay tuned for more on the untitled Warner Bros. project.
