Bad Milo poster embraces its inner demon

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Jacob Vaughan’s BAD MILO looks like BASKET CASE for the 21st Century, only instead of a mutant brother it’s a demonic shit-baby. No, I’m not kidding, that’s what this demented horror-comedy is about. Don’t believe me? Read the synopsis:

Duncan’s (Ken Marino) life is a real pain in the ass. Tormented by a manipulative, crooked boss (Patrick Warburton), a nagging mother (Mary Kay Place), a deadbeat new age dad (Stephen Root), and a sweet, yet pressuring, wife (Gillian Jacobs), his mounting stress starts to trigger an insufferable gastrointestinal reaction.

Out of ideas and at the end of his rope, Duncan seeks the help of a hypnotherapist (Peter Stormare), who helps him discover the root of his unusual stomach pain: a pintsized demon living in his intestine that, triggered by excessive anxiety, forces its way out and slaughters the people who have angered him. Out of fear that his intestinal gremlin may target its wrath on the wrong person, Duncan attempts to befriend it, naming it Milo and indulging it to keep its seemingly insatiable appetite at bay.

Cute! As you’ll see below, Magnet Releasing has unveiled the official poster for the flick, which hits VOD on August 29th and theaters October 4th. The film stars Ken Marino, Gillian Jacobs, Patrick Warburton, Mary Kay Place, Stephen Root and Peter Stormare.
