Little Monsters is gearing up for release in the United States!

After the trailer for its UK/Ireland release dropped in July, we now have the full U.S. trailer via Hulu. The film will be in theaters stateside for one night only on October 8 before finding its home as a Hulu Original Movie on October 11. As previously reported, it will be released in the UK and Ireland in November.

The film, which stars Lupita Nyong’o, Alexander England and Josh Gad, was acquired by NEON in a partnership with Hulu for U.S. distribution.

England plays a musician, Dave, who crushes on the teacher during his nephew’s school trip, named Miss Caroline (Nyong’o). However, acting on those feelings is compromised by a personality from a kids show named Teddy McGiggle (Gad), who also likes Miss Caroline. In the midst of this, there is a zombie outbreak and Dave and Miss Caroline must protect the children.

Our Sundance review of the film reads: “An ode to Kindergarten teachers and everyone else who works tirelessly to protect children and keep them safe, Forsythe has managed to construct a film that will leave you shaking with laughter and weeping with joy. Managing neither to skip out on the witty brilliance of little kids, nor the absolute terror of a zombie invasion, Little Monsters is a brilliant contrast between the grotesque and the magical, which in many ways is precisely what a room full of kindergarteners is.”
