Movie Preview: Gonzo slaughter-comedy “Boy Kills World” has Skarsgard, Dockery, Famke, Jessica Rothe — and the voice of H. Jon Benjamin

A deaf child whose family is murdered is trained and interior-monologued into seeking his revenge on those who did it.

And the world in general.

This April 26 thriller-comedy is based on a short film and not a comic book (we all lose that bet) has some big names in the cast — Bill Skarsgard, Famke Jansen, Michelle “Downton” Dockery and Jessica Rothe, but is notable for the voice of that deaf guy’s interior monologue, the dry comical stylings of H. Jon Benjamin, voice-actor of many an animated TV series, from the current “Bob’s Burgers” going all the way back to Comedy Central’s droll masterwork, “Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist.”

This looks nasty and funny.
