Meet the parents in the first clip from the body horror comedy Mum, I\u2019m Alien Pregnant below, where you\u2019ll also find the teaser poster.<\/p>\n

Said to be equal parts funny, frightening, and emotional in its blend of lived experience with outrageous imagination, the film will premiere at Sundance<\/a> tomorrow night.<\/p>\n

It follows a messy millennial underachiever who accidentally gets alien-pregnant. She must overcome skeptical doctors, a useless baby-daddy, and her oversharing mum in order to survive and reclaim her life.<\/p>\n

New Zealand filmmaking duo Thunderlips make their feature debut on the movie, based on their 2024 short Help, I\u2019m Alien Pregnant.<\/p>\n

Hannah Lynch (The Rule of Jenny Pen), Yvette Parsons (What We Do in the Shadows), Arlo Green (M3GAN), and Jackie van Beek (What We Do in the Shadows) star.<\/p>\n

Morgan Leigh Stewart (Deathgasm), Alix Whittaker, and Ilai Amar produce. Timothy White (I Am Mother) and Todd Brown (Mandy) executive produce.<\/p>\n

XYZ Films is handling international sales for the project.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
