When Winnie the Pooh and Piglet feel that Christopher Robin has abandoned them because he went to college, they are very offended and take it quite hard.
how hard
Let's say the two become serial killers and go on a deadly and bloody revenge mission against their (former, it turns out) best friend and all the humans they encounter along the way.
Sounds like an idea for an absurd and psychotic horror movie?
Absolutely, and the truth is that it is exactly that.
"Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey" is a new independent production that is creating a lot of buzz - and not just because of the buzzing of the bees.
The film, which is limited to viewing by adults only and will be released in the coming months, is indeed based on the beloved characters of the British writer A.
A.
Milne, but presents them from a completely different and disturbing angle.
It turns out that the innocent and sympathetic teddy bear and piglet have completely lost it, and if you're afraid to ask what happened to crowd favorites Tigger the tiger and Aya the donkey, then you better not ask.
know what?
Perhaps it is also better not to watch the brutal first trailer of the film, which was released yesterday (Wednesday) and has already managed to accumulate hundreds of thousands of views on YouTube, although you will not find a single famous actor in it, but we must admit that the atmosphere is especially creepy.
We repeat and emphasize: the trailer is not recommended for the faint of heart, for lovers of cute and furry animals, and certainly not for children.
If you're asking yourself how come Disney didn't screw up this production, since it's a movie that turns two of its most famous animated characters into bloodthirsty monsters, the answer is simple: it literally ran out of time.
Last year, Disney lost the exclusivity in the US to produce works based on Milne's books, an exclusivity the company had enjoyed since 1966. The rights to Winnie the Pooh and his friends are now in the public domain, 95 years after Milne published the first collection of stories starring them. Therefore, from now on, every One can initiate projects involving the characters, as defiant and bizarre as they may be, without fear of a lawsuit from Disney. The production company Jagged Edge wasted no time and picked up the new horror work with impressive agility, but rest assured that none of this film is going to lick honey.
