The reviews of Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey, the much-touted slasher horror remake of AA Milne's beloved children's stories, are here. And boy, it doesn't look good. The film has a score of 6 per cent on the review aggregation site Rotten Tomatoes. The critical consensus is just "Oh, bother", Pooh's famous catchphrase, and that should give an idea as to how bad the movie is — as per the critics at least. But even the audiences have given it a 58 per cent rating. Blood and Honey became possible because the copyright for the original stories and related illustrations by EH&nbsp;Shepard entered the public domain in the United States in 2021, 95 years after their first publication. This means that anyone is free to use the characters and stories in their own works without obtaining permission from the copyright holder.

And writer-director Rhys Frake-Waterfield chose the moment to make a movie about Pooh and other inhabitants of Hundred Acre Wood psychopathic murders. The movie was said to be a retelling of the stories. In this adaptation, it's revealed that Christopher Robin and his animal friends did have all those adventures during Robin's childhood, but as he grew up and went to college, the animals became increasingly hungry and feral. Eventually, they became so deranged that they terrorise a group of girls who are staying in a rural cabin.

Frake-Wakefield explained the synopsis in his own words in an interview with Variety. He said, “Christopher Robin is pulled away from them, and he’s not [given] them food, it’s made Pooh and Piglet’s life quite difficult... Because they’ve had to fend for themselves so much, they’ve essentially become feral. So they’ve gone back to their animal roots. They’re no longer tame: they’re like a vicious bear and pig who want to go around and try and find prey.”

Here are some of the reviews:

Rolling Stone's Miles Klee wrote, "Blood and Honey is a hundred-acre wasteland, a witless gory bore, and in the end, you’re just depressed that anyone spent time working on it."

New York Times' Kyle Turner wrote, "It’s not funny enough to have anything clever to say about its gag, and it’s not exciting enough to be a competent horror movie."

The Wrap's William Bibbiani wrote, "The film feels half-written, and the half we got wasn’t the good half. Characters and storylines pop up out of nowhere, disappear into the ether, and almost all of them turn out to be pointless."

IGN's Matt Donato wrote, "Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey is noteworthy only for its name, as it turns out that blending slasher blood with Pooh’s honey together is like oil and water: it just doesn’t mix."

Mashable's Jason Adams wrote, "Disney's cartoon drawings had more character in one swoop of pencil line than any of these women are given before they start getting their faces mashed into wood chippers and their tops torn off."

Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey becomes one of the worst-reviewed movies of all time

A prequel to English author AA&nbsp;Milne’s classic creation of children Winnie the Pooh is in development, as per The Hollywood Reporter. The project is taking inspiration from the 'Paddington' movies. Earlier, only Disney had the screen rights to Pooh Bear stories, but that ended after the character entered public domain last year. Notably, indie horror filmmaker Rhys Frake-Wakefield took the opportunity to write and direct an R-Rated slasher movie, 'Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey' . The prequel treatment, we presume, will be geared towards children.

Mike de Seve will direct and co-write the film with John Reynolds.

Reynolds said in a statement, “We’re telling the surprising origin story of the ‘silly young bear’ and his friends, when they were still kids, in a way designed to connect with 21st-century kids."

de Seve said, “I think this unsinkable young cub is totally relatable for today’s kids, with his hell-bent craving for honey and his ludicrous schemes to get it. The whole gang is hilarious, and are even more hilarious as kids, we’re finding out.”&nbsp;

Meanwhile, the fans of Winnie the Pooh and supporting characters like Piglet and Tigger continue to observe 'Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey' with a horrified fascination. It is a sick retelling of the short stories by Milne set in Hundred Acre Wood, where Winnie the Pooh and his friends had many adventurous together with their human friend Christopher Robin.&nbsp;

Christopher Robin, Pooh and others did have all those adventures in Robin's childhood in the film, but then the boy grew up and went to college. Pooh, Piglet, and others, meanwhile, went more and more hungry and became feral. Now, they have become so crazy that they terrorise a group of girls residing in a rural cabin.&nbsp;

'Winnie the Pooh' to get 'Paddington'-style prequel treatment

Oh, bother! The first trailer for 'Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey' is finally here, and it is as blood-soaked and disturbing as you would expect. Ready for a movie promo to demolish your sweet, sweet childhood and nostalgia about the stories you read and the movies you watched? No? Well, ready or not, the beloved characters like Pooh Bear and Piglet have turned into deranged killers in this slasher take on the universe of late English author AA Milne. 'Blood And Honey' became possible because Disney no longer holds exclusive rights to the character and stories involving the honey-loving bear. Winnie the Pooh entered the public domain in 2021 as per US copyright law. And this is as far from Disney's Winnie the Pooh movies as possible.

And the twisted mind of writer-director Rhys Frake-Wakefield wondered 'what if Winnie the Pooh was not a cuddly, honey-loving teddy bear but something akin to Leatherface?'

You can check the trailer above.&nbsp;

The trailer will terrify you in more ways than one. Sure, it is scary and you see the tropes of slasher movies, but the killers are the characters that you once loved, and suddenly the scare quotient is off the charts.
