Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey has a lot to answer for!
Following the recent news that Atlas Film Distribution is developing a Grinch horror parody titled The Mean One, Dread Central is reporting that the team behind Blood and Honey, ITN Studios and Jagged Edge Productions, is also working on Bambi: The Reckoning.
According to the site, the movie will be "an incredibly dark retelling of the 1928 story we all know and love. Finding inspiration from the design used in Netflix’s The Ritual, Bambi will be a vicious killing machine that lurks in the wilderness. Prepare for Bambi on rabies!”
No specific plot details just yet, but we assume Bambi is going to be seeking revenge for the death of his mother. As for the Ritual comparison, for those of you that haven't seen the film (it's definitely worth checking out), the creature looks like this.
We have no idea how an adorable young fawn would be reimagined as a giant, multi-limbed monster, but we're certainly curious to find out!
Production on Bambi: The Reckoning is reportedly scheduled to begin early next year.
