Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that WINNIE THE POOH: BLOOD AND HONEY 2 gets 79% Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes.
For more than 40 years now, moviegoers have lined up to see the spectacle of people being slaughtered by a psycho with a chainsaw, a psycho in a Halloween mask, a psycho in a goalie mask, a psycho with burnt skin and a striped shirt and fedora, or a psycho with S&M nails in his face. So why not a psycho Winnie the Pooh?
“Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey” raised a few hackles — otherwise known as free publicity — for having the scuzzy temerity to take a couple of beloved children’s characters and place them at the center of a slasher film. Yet the stunt concept was about all there was to it. The movie, made on a budget of $50,000, was too logy and inept to be a real scandal, or any sort of theatrical sleeper hit. (It opened on 1,652 screens and wound up grossing a total of $1.7 million.) On paper, “Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey” sounded like an extreme TikTok video, yet it was amateurishly staged and badly paced, neither scary nor funny.
With the first movie being surprisingly successful, the makers came up with a sequel titled Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2. Interestingly, this sequel is said to be raking in pretty good reviews, with the Tomatometer rating it 100% fresh and an audience score of 91%.
It is one of the movies for which you go with the least expectations and it surprises you with its cheesy horror treatment. Following the events of the first movie, it shows Christopher Robin returning back to his normal life. But of course, this is not going to be easy for him, especially after the massacre he witnessed.
