Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey (2023)
This ain’t no bedtime story.
Christopher Robin is headed off to college and he has abandoned his old friends, Pooh and Piglet, which then leads to the duo embracing their inner monsters.
It seems like we’ve been hearing about Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey forever. And now it’s here, the latest attempt to turn childhood favourites like The Banana Splits, The Grinch, and even Heidi into blood-soaked nightmares. And with Pooh being far and away the most popular it’s also been the most hyped and anticipated, even the fact Scott Jeffrey was producing it couldn’t keep me from wanting to see it. And now it’s here and all I can say is “Oh bother!”
Writer/director Rhys Frake-Waterfield (The Killing Tree, The Area 51 Incident) actually gets the film off to a great start with an animated segment telling us how Christopher Robin befriended the creatures of the Hundred Acre Wood only to grow up and leave for college, leaving them to suddenly fend for themselves. They turn on each other, and Eyeore becomes dinner. Pooh (Craig David Dowsett, The Area 51 Incident) and Piglet (Chris Cordell, Prizefighter: The Life of Jem Belcher, Mega Lightning) survive, driven by the thought of revenge.
Unfortunately, it’s all downhill from there as Christopher (Nikolai Leon, The Killing Tree) returns eager to introduce his wife Mary (Paula Coiz, The Leprechaun’s Curse, Tooth Fairy Queen of Pain) to his friends, only to find out the hard way that things have changed. If this had been the film’s actual plot, Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey might have had a chance. Instead, it’s quickly cast aside to let Pooh and Piglet go after a group of women staying nearby.
Maria (Maria Taylor, Mega Lightning, Dinosaur Prison) is trying to get over an incident with a stalker so she and Lara (Natasha Tosini, The Manor, Quarantine Leap), Zoe (Danielle Ronald, Shockwaves, Dirty Games), Jess (Natasha Rose Mills, No Filter, Krampus: The Return) and Alice (Amber Doig-Thorne, Demons at Dawn, Run from Hell) head for a cabin in the woods to relax. Tina (May Kelly, Nutcracker Massacre, Medusa’s Venom) never makes it that far, she gets lost and Pooh tosses her in a woodchipper, but not before ripping her top off.
