Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey is a 2023 British independent slasher film edited, produced, written and directed by Rhys Frake-Waterfield. It serves as a horror reimagining to A. A. Milne and E. H. Shepard's Winnie-the-Pooh books and stars Craig David Dowsett as the titular character, and Chris Cordell as Piglet, with Amber Doig-Thorne, Nikolai Leon, Maria Taylor, Natasha Rose Mills, and Danielle Ronald in supporting roles. It follows Pooh and Piglet, who have become feral and bloodthirsty murderers, as they terrorise a group of young university women and Christopher Robin when he returns to the Hundred Acre Wood many years later after leaving for college.

The film was first announced in May 2022, when it drew widespread attention due to its premise involving a character that was a beloved childhood icon, and it was met with divided reactions. There was even controversy surrounding the film among both the general public and the Winnie-the-Pooh fan community, with Frake-Waterfield claiming that he and the other members on the film's production received death threats and petitions for the film to be cancelled. It was produced by Jagged Edge Productions in association with ITN Studios and went into development after the 1926 Winnie-the-Pooh book entered the public domain in the United States in January 2022. The film was shot on a $100,000 budget in 10 days in the Ashdown Forest of East Sussex, England, which serves as inspiration for the Hundred Acre Wood, the setting for the stories.

Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey was originally set for a nationwide one-night event, but a spike in online popularity expanded it to a major worldwide theatrical release. It premiered in Mexico on January 26, 2023, and was theatrically released in the United States on February 15, 2023, and in the United Kingdom on March 10, 2023. The film received mostly negative reviews, and grossed $5.2 million worldwide against its small budget. A sequel and a shared universe are in development.

SYNOPSIS: Years ago, a young Christopher Robin met and befriended a group of anthropomorphic creatures—Owl, Rabbit, Eeyore, Piglet, and Winnie-the-Pooh—in the Hundred Acre Wood. However, Christopher left after he entered college. Without him around to feed them, and with the arrival of winter, the creatures went into starvation. In order to survive, they settled on killing and eating Eeyore, which developed in them a hatred for humanity. They vowed to return to their feral instincts and never speak again.

Five years later, Christopher, now an adult, returns to the Hundred Acre Wood, accompanied by his wife Mary, but finds the place in a desolate state. The couple is ambushed by Piglet, who fatally strangles Mary. Pooh and Piglet then drag Christopher into the woods, showing him Eeyore's skeletal remains, and burning Mary's corpse.

Sometime later, university students Maria, Jessica, Alice, Zoe, and Lara rent a cabin in the Hundred Acre Wood so she can overcome a traumatic stalking experience. Tina, another friend, gets lost en route, and Pooh grinds her up with a woodchipper. In his treehouse, Pooh, who has imprisoned Christopher, reminisces over their childhood and breaks down, brutally whipping him with Eeyore's tail and showering Christopher in Mary's blood.

As night falls, Pooh and Piglet ambush Lara and slowly drive a car over her head. Piglet enters the cabin, killing Zoe. Maria and Jessica observe the duo taking Alice away and decide to rescue her. In Pooh's treehouse, they find and free Christopher, who directs them to another hostage, Charlene. Seeking revenge after Piglet mutilated her face, Charlene summons Piglet to kill him, but Piglet mauls her to death. Pooh chases Maria and Jessica into the woods, but Alice stays behind and bludgeons Piglet with his own sledgehammer, apparently fatally. Pooh impales Alice with a knife through her open mouth.

On the road, Maria and Jessica seek help from a group of local men passing by but Pooh easily kills them. Maria tries to run him over with their pick-up truck but crashes. Upon awakening, she witnesses Pooh decapitate Jessica. He almost kills Maria until Christopher appears, driving a car and crushing Pooh between the two vehicles.

Pooh frees himself and holds Maria at knifepoint. Christopher pleads for Pooh to release her, promising to stay with him and apologizing. Pooh breaks his vow of silence and says "You left" before slashing Maria's throat. After she dies in his arms, a traumatised Christopher flees, realising that his former friend is now beyond help, while Pooh repeatedly stabs Maria's corpse.
