May 18, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

STX Entertainment has debuted the first red band trailer and poster for the upcoming puppet noir The Happytime Murders.

No Sesame. All Street. THE HAPPYTIME MURDERS is a filthy comedy set in the underbelly of Los Angeles where puppets and humans coexist. Two clashing detectives with a shared secret, one human (Melissa McCarthy) and one puppet, are forced to work together again to solve the brutal murders of the former cast of a beloved classic puppet television show.
