Dread Central gave fans a glimpse of the trailer for the upcoming horror movie Winnie the Pooh for the first time! The silly bear cub and his best buddy Piglet are back … in a murderous frenzy! The film was announced almost immediately after Winnie’s character came into the public domain at the beginning of this year.
Our plush, cute friends are back in bloody style! The characters have been redesigned to fulfill their horror roles. Piglet now has fangs like warthog, and Winnie wears a plaid shirt that looks more like a lumberjack than a Disney bear cub. Unfortunately, we will not meet Tiger in the production, which is still protected by copyright. Who knows, maybe in a few years and it will appear on the screen?
Watch the official horror trailer below :
Despite the characters becoming public domain, they are still closely associated with the Disney franchise and care should be taken not to mislead viewers. Waterfield, however, does not worry about this at all:
Nobody will mistake this [for Disney]. When you look at the cover, see trailers, photos and so on, there’s no way anyone would think it’s a kid version.
Will Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey turn out to be a hit with horror movies? It will turn out soon!
