Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2

Despite getting totally blasted by critics and well, an audience who were wondering WTH they were thinking, production is already underway on a sequel to this year's Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey. Director Rhys Frake-Waterfield is promising new designs, a new cast, and a higher death count than the first film.

Cast includes Tallulah Evans, Simon Callow (yes THAT Simon Callow), Scott Chambers as Christopher Robin, Ryan Olivia as Pooh and Lewis Santer as Tigger (the character officially goes into public domain in 2024, hence he will be in the sequel).

Did anyone see the first one?

Heard of it, zero interest. A sequel ?...BWA-HAHA-ha.....ha!

I saw it...I'm one of the few who liked it. The designs were not great...you can tell they were just masks, but there were a few good kill scenes. Pooh only says two words and it was towards the end.

But with a $100,000 budget the film made over 5 million in its limited theatrical run.

The new Pooh! The film's higher budget allowed the filmmakers to up the death count to over 30 and rely on prostethics than using cheap Halloween masks like in the first film.

Release date is set for February 14, 2024.

Exclusive clip has us meet Tigger!

The film is getting an exclusive 3-day theatrical run from March 26 to 28.

Get ready for this year's Razzie-sweeper

It's only 6 reviews so far, but the film has scored a 100% Rotten Tomatoes score as the film hits the U.S. today for a 3-day theatrical release.

And yet it swept the Razzie Awards:

You mean, that explains why it swept the Razzies...

Welp this is probably shaping up to be the best movie of the year!

It dropped to 50% as of today with an audience score of 83%. I'm seeing the film tonight on its last theatrical night!

This was a massive improvement over the original! They even have a story mixed in and added a meta-like subplot where the first film's events, known as the 100 Acre Wood Massacre, was made into a film called "Blood and Honey", which a kid is watching while supporting character Lexy (Tallulah Evans) is babysitting. Scott Chambers is great as Christopher Robin, who has been deemed a pariah because of the 1st film's events.*

They upped the ante on the kills this time. There's at least 30 seen with Rhys-Frake Waterfield saying in his intro he had to cut 6 to 7 that he shot for pacing reasons, but promises to include them in the DVD/Blu-Ray edition. Tigger is the highlight. Think Freddy's one-liners meshed with Wolverine's Berzerker Rage with his claws. Owl is the mastermind of the group while Pooh brings it all, even going from paying homage to both Slumber Party Massacre and Terrifier in a matter of seconds during the whole 20-minute rave massacre finale. One of the best kills early in the film is a Prowler-like homage where a hunter gets a shotgun drilled through his skull and I don't mean pulling the trigger either.*

The intro also introduced an exclusive clip from "Bambi: The Reckoning" with director Dan Allen introducing the clip; as well as talking about "Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare", "Pinocchio Unstrung" (think of the wooden doll as a Chucky-like menace and they are even getting Chucky's designer to help create Pinocchio and of course, they mention "Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble", which will be shot in early 2025.*

Altogether, this was shit tons better than the original film and has a very shocking twist to the lore thanks to Simon Callow's character.*
