Winnie The Pooh Horror Movie Images: More Terrifying Than You'd Imagine
The first images for the new low-budget English horror film Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey show that this incarnation of the beloved children’s character won’t be for the faint of heart. It was at the beginning of the year when A.A. Milne’s original Winnie The Poohbook entered the public domain, as, under US copyright law, enough time had passed since publication.

Still, this doesn’t extend to characters like Tigger, as he only appeared in later publications.
The lapsing of the book’s copyright led to numerous hilarious takes, such as when Ryan Reynolds introduced Winnie-the-Screwed, an angry take on the bear who is upset about his phone bill in a new commercial for Mint Mobile. However, the most disturbing take on the source material may just be coming from writer-director Rhys Frake-Waterfield, who is helming a new horror-comedy take on the character called Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey. Labeled on IMDB as a horror retelling of the famous Winnie The Pooh story, it is currently in post-production and is set for a release later this year.

It also seems as if the film will be using
