Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey is considered the ultimate microbudget horror film. Despite its daring twist on a beloved childhood classic, the movie was made with just $100,000. Following the trend of microbudget horror films, Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey received harsh criticism and only scored a 3% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey quickly became a cult classic, grossing nearly $5 million worldwide despite its low budget and limited release. One reason for its success is the trend of turning beloved childhood characters into horror figures, as seen in the popularity of Five Nights at Freddy’s and the Grinch slasher film, The Mean One.
With a growing fan base, the upcoming sequel, Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2, aims to build on the first film's success. The addition of the iconic character Tigger, who became part of the public domain on January 1, 2024, is expected to bring a new level of terror to the sequel, as hinted in the released images.
