What to watch: Dust Bunny' revives the monster under the bed' story
"In In this debut feature film by Bryan Fuller (TV's Hannibal and Pushing Daisies), an at first unmenacing dust bunny turns into a big-toothed monster and starts to grow faster than a viral rumor about one of the Kardashians. It also stands accused of frightening precocious 10-year-old Aurora (Sophie Sloan, a child star is born) and also gobbling up her parents in the fam's New York apartment."
"Fuller concocts a devilishly clever fractured fairy tale and sends viewers down a welcome rabbit hole into a vividly imaginative world. His film is a visual wonderland and shakes in elements of the Brothers Grimm as well as a Jean-Pierre Jeunet film and even adds in a couple of dashes of Guillermo del Toro and the quirkiness of Wes Anderson."
Three new films are highlighted: Dust Bunny, a fantastical horror-comedy; a revenge horror about a killer targeting vapid content creators; and an award-winning Indian gay love story. Dust Bunny, Bryan Fuller’s debut feature, follows 10-year-old Aurora as a seemingly harmless dust bunny becomes a giant, toothy monster that frightens her and devours her parents, prompting her to recruit a neighbor monster hunter played by Mads Mikkelsen. The film blends Brothers Grimm, Jean-Pierre Jeunet, Guillermo del Toro and Wes Anderson influences, features Sigourney Weaver, comments on parenting, and opens Dec. 12.
