'Winnie The Pooh' Is Now An R-Rated Horror Movie After Becoming Public Domain—And Oh Dear

'Winnie The Pooh' Is Now An R-Rated Horror Movie After Becoming Public Domain—And Oh Dear
Jagged Edge Productions

Disney's Winnie the Pooh, the beloved bear from the Hundred Acre Wood is being reimagined as a murderous beast out for blood in a new slasher movie.

The stories of the anthropomorphic teddy bear based on the creations of English author A.A. Milne hit the public domain five years ago, and director Rhys Waterfield is one of the first to depict the "willy nilly silly old bear" as a bloodthirsty cubby all stuffed with rage.


As far as we know, the basic premise for Waterfield's Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey is that when Christopher Robin leaves for college, Pooh and Piglet turn feral and go on a killing spree.

Abandonment issues, much? Oh, bother.

Twitter had some thoughts on that.









Gay Twitter also had some thoughts about Pooh being an LGBTQ+ icon since the character became public domain.







In an interview with Variety, Waterfield shared:

"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.”

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.”

According to Variety, the film was shot in ten days in England and just wrapped a month ago.

Waterfield has not disclosed the budget for the film but noted audiences “shouldn’t be expecting this to be a Hollywood-level production.”

Jagged Edge Productions–which Waterfield runs with co-producer Scott Jeffrey, made the film–and ITN Studios will distribute it.

There has been no official release date set.

GOP Senator Gets Blunt Reality Check After Comparing Trump Tariff 'Pain' To Home Renovation

Montana Republican Senator Tim Sheehy was criticized after he tried to compare the "short-term pain" of President Donald Trump's tariffs to home renovation, a claim so ridiculous that CNN's Kaitlan Collins quickly pushed back on the analogy.

Trump has repeatedly referred to April 2 as “Liberation Day,” pledging to impose tariffs—taxes on imports—to reduce U.S. reliance on foreign goods. He has framed these tariffs as “reciprocal,” aiming to match the duties other nations place on American exports.

Liberal Wisconsin Judge Calls Out Elon Musk In Victory Speech—And It's Everything

Liberal judge Susan Crawford called out billionaire Elon Musk in her victory speech after winning a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, basking in successfully beating her Republican opponent Brad Schimel and ensuring that the nonpartisan court’s narrow 4-3 liberal majority remains intact despite Musk's efforts to sway the race.

Musk fueled the high-stakes race, having poured more than $20 million into supporting Schimel, according to state campaign records. That includes $3 million to the state Republican Party—$2 million of which was donated just last week. Due to state election laws, large contributions must be funneled through political parties before reaching candidates.
