Have you ever wanted to see one of your beloved childhood favourites reimagined as a cold-blooded murderer? Me neither... but here we are!
Winnie The Pooh entered the public domain earlier this year, which means Walt Disney Co. can no longer lay sole claim to the forgetful little bear. Filmmaker Rhys Frake-Waterfield has taken full advantage by putting a mallet in Pooh's hand and turning him into a remorseless killer.
Details on the project are few and far between, but Dread Central is reporting that this indie project will be "a grisly retelling of the Winnie the Pooh legend" starring Amber Doig-Thorne, Maria Taylor and Danielle Scott.
Check out some official promo stills - which also feature a twisted version of Piglet - below.
As far as we can tell, Pooh, Piglet and co. won't actually be evil anthropomorphic stuffed animals, as these guys appear to be normal humans in masks. Then again, maybe they are supposed to be the former and the FX budget only stretched so far!
Either way, we will be keeping a very close eye on this one, so stay tuned for updates.
