We all know the story of little Christopher Robin who often visited a gluttonous bear, a nervous pig and a sad donkey, among others. But what we didn’t know is that when the boy stopped hanging out with them and years later he tried to rebuild the friendly bond, his cute comrades were now… well, creepy creatures that kill people. This and more we will see in Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honeya movie slasher that, outside of joke, really exists. And that we will soon be able to see in theaters in the Mexican Republic.
The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Mexico is among several of the international territories where the slasher of winnie-the-pooh has been acquired for a theatrical release. According to the medium, the premiere will be given through Cinemex, which “has plans to put it on hundreds of screens” in the country. For more details, keep an eye on the social networks of the display chain.
It should be remembered that originally the film was going to reach home formats and platforms directly. on demand. In the United States it will be released in theaters on February 15, 2023.

The film was born as an independent project of the writer and director Rhys Waterfield. Recall that the original Pooh books—written by AA Milne—went into the public domain in 2022. So while Disney retains the rights to its innocent film and television adaptations, anyone can now generate different versions of these characters created in the first half of the twentieth century. And if it is your wish to turn them into monsters from anyone’s worst nightmares, go ahead.
In this twisted tale, an adult Christopher Robin returns to the Hundred Acre Wood to reunite with the honey-loving bear. However, he soon realizes that, feeling abandoned, his childhood friends have gone feral and embarked on a homicidal streak. The interest born in social networks not only motivated its release in theaters, but also caused some reshoots and plans to make a sequel.
The film was sheltered by Jagged Edge Productions, a company with previous experience in misrepresenting characters from literature in order to generate horror narratives. Last year, he was responsible for titles like The Curse of Humpty Dumpty Y The Legend of Jack and Jill.
