WINNIE THE POOH: BLOOD AND HONEY Australian Release Announced

Umbrella Entertainment have revealed that they will unleash the highly anticipated and ultra-violent WINNIE THE POOH: BLOOD AND HONEY in Australian Cinemas February 16-19 with Valentine’s Day’s Special Advance Screenings February 14.

The days of adventures and merriment have come to an end, as Christopher Robin, now a young man, has left Winnie the Pooh and Piglet to fend for themselves. As time passes, feeling angry and abandoned, the two become feral. After getting a taste for blood, Winnie the Pooh and Piglet set off to find a new source of food. It’s not long before their bloody rampage begins.

How could Disney let this happen? Well mere months after author A.A. Milne’s original Winnie the Pooh stories had entered the public domain, writer/director Rhys Frake-Waterfield saw the opportunity to transform the popular children’s tales into a transgressive and brutal slasher film.

When popular genre film site Dread Central first broke news of the film in May of last year, it turned into a media frenzy with coverage by every major entertainment and news site from around the globe, the likes of Variety to Newsweek to LadBible to Bloody Disgusting.

Aussie audiences will be among the first in the world to get a taste of the blood and honey when WINNIE THE POOH: BLOOD AND HONEY opens theatrically across the country from February 16 to 19.
