Rhys Frake-Waterfield’s independent horror Winnie The Pooh: Blood And Honey certainly caused some bother when it was released earlier this year, as Milne and Shepard’s iconic creations have now become public domain. 

They are not the only ones either, as fans can get excited (if you like) for more upcoming horror slants on classic stories, see the incoming Bambi: The Reckoning and Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare. Which are both real, we have not made them up. Fear not though Pooh fans, this willy, nilly, killy old bear will not be left behind to fester in 100 Acre Wood.

That’s right, forget Indiana Jones, forget scarlett speedsters, forget Barbie n’ Ken and who gives a fig about any old atomic bomb film? This is the film news you have been waiting for, as Winnie The Pooh: Blood and Honey is not only getting a sequel, but it has been confirmed that the follow-up will be filming this Autumn.

After making a pretty penny off of its slim budget on its theatrical run, the budget is set to be substantially bigger this time, as returning director Frake-Waterfield will no doubt be picking up from where we left off in the last film. No word yet on firm cast and plot details though, but needless to say this crazy horror train is set to keep on rolling through many other childhood classics.

We’re still waiting for Dumbo’s Circus Of Death to get greenlit. That one we did make up…for now…
