“Bad Therapy” forgoing a theatrical release in light of COVID-19

On Thursday the first trailer was released for the upcoming film, “Bad Therapy” was released. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the movie will be forgoing a theatrical release and will be available to purchase April 16.

“Bad Therapy” stars Alicia Silverstone, Rob Corddry, Michaela Watkins, Anna Pniowsky, Haley Joel Osment, David Paymer. The film is directed by Bill Teitler, written by Nancy Doyne, and produced by Teitler and Gina Resnick.

The film features married couple Bob and Susan Howard (Rob Corddry & Alicia Silverstone) decide to see a marriage counselor named Judy Small (Michaela Watkins), who recently relocated close to their home in Los Angeles. When Bob and Susan first meet Judy, she appears competent, intelligent, and trustworthy, with a track record of other couples that she's treated successfully without incident.

Bob and Susan's particular emotional dynamic is a trigger for Judy's dark and conflicted impulses. Suggesting that she see them separately, Judy subtly puts them at odds with one another and brings their marriage to the breaking point in a comically escalating series of manipulations.

“Bad Therapy” will be available for VOD purchase. You can watch the trailer below.
