Let me tell you how much I despise this concept of taking cute or innocent characters and turning them into horror slasher villains. First we had The Banana Splits and then the Grinch horror spoof The Mean One, and now we have Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey.
It follows Pooh and Piglet, who have now become feral and bloodthirsty killers and embark on a murderous rampage, terrorizing a group of young university women and an adult Christopher Robin when he returns to the Hundred Acre Wood five years after leaving for college.
And that was Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey and it's just a dumb take on a beloved children's icon and turn him into a psychotic killer.
The acting is awful. The costumes are laughable. The writing is mind-bogglingly lame, the characters we love are just turned into a kid abandoning his best friends just so they can be wild animals and kill people and it just feels like a complete waste of time and talent. The only good things about it was the score and some of the set locations and cinematography. Everything else was weak.
Blood and Honey is the worst kind of horror movie, one devoid of a soul and meaning, it was made for the sake of being for shock value and to get people talking about it in the hopes it got an ironic appeal out of it. Well, succeeded in that first half but failed at the second, there's no ironic enjoyment to be found here, it's just that bad. Just watch the Disney movies and TV shows centered on Pooh or read the timeless books by A. A. Milne instead.
2/10.
