This isn’t the Winnie the Pooh you grew up with.

In an interview with Variety, director Rhys Waterfield teased new
details about a new, twisted take on the beloved character in the
upcoming horror film “Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey.”

“No one is going to mistake this [for Disney],” Waterfield said. “When you see the cover for this and you see the trailers and the stills and
all that, there’s no way anyone is going to think this is a child’s
version of it.”

The formerly lovable yellow bear and his sidekick, Piglet, will now be
the “main villains … going on a rampage” after Christopher Robin leaves them behind for a college education.

“Because they’ve had to fend for themselves so much, they’ve
essentially become feral,” Waterfield continued. “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.”

A few of the stills Waterfield mentioned dropped on Thursday, including
a shot of Winnie the Pooh and Piglet creeping up behind a bikini-clad
woman in a hot tub.

“She’s having a good time and then Pooh and Piglet appear behind her, chloroform her, take her out of the jacuzzi and then kind of drive a
car over her head,” Waterfield said.

Do you think children are influenced by the entertainment industry?

What would children take away from this movie? That human life means
nothing?

How could someone slaughter a classroom full of children? Maybe they
got the idea from watching movies.
