In 2022 the iconic character Winnie The Pooh and friends entered the public domain so it wasn’t long before the fun began. The most outrageous use of the character came in the slasher reimagining of the classic characters with Winnie The Pooh: Blood and Honey from director Rhys Frake-Waterfield in 2023. The film was a cult hit and has now spawned the new Twisted Childhood Universe that is bringing other famed characters to the horror genre. 

 

The first film to be released outside of Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey II was Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare and now we are heading into the forest for the next entry into the franchise Bambi The Reckoning. The film follows a mother and son who get into a car wreck and soon become hunted by Bambi, a mutated grief-stricken deer on a deadly rampage seeking revenge for the death of his mother. The film stars Roxanne McKee, Nicola Wright, Russell Geoffrey Banks, Tom Mulheron, and Samira Mighty.

 

While you will have to wait until July 25th to see the film in theaters you can check out the poster and final trailer here now from itn Studios and Jagged Edge Productions.
