Piglet's Return

It seems that there are so few ideas in the Southern Hemisphere that they had to mash up the Poohniverse, Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Wolf Creek.

And it's rotten down under. Like a metric kiloton of lard left out in the Australian sun - in late January, when their summer is in swing.

I am also running out of pig analogies to describe how bad and stupid this movie is. The cast is terrible. The plot is so dumb. The script was clearly AI-written. The acting is non-existent.

The characters are terrible. Every second of the movie is annoying in every way. I guess the camerawork is okay - and by that I mean whoever was operating the camera was awake. And the editing is decent. But I am sure that the person who cut this atrocity suffered mental harm having to piece this incompetent nonsense to together.

Avoid.

Piglet is bad. Worse than Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey; worse than Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare; and worse than any of the recent Popeye horror movies. And that's saying something.

I'd assumed that Piglet would take place in the same twisted 'Poohniverse' as Blood and Honey, but it's actually a standalone movie that has nothing to do with Pooh. The killer in this one is simply a man wearing a rubber pig mask that he conveniently finds in a drawer. The lame plot sees this mask-wearing nut-job killing off a group of young women who have rented a cabin in the woods for the weekend.

The script is pure excrement (seeing as it's by the same genius who wrote Popeye's Revenge, that's no real surprise), the direction is weak, and the acting is dreadful. It's hard to tell where the film is supposed to take place: one of the characters talks about moving to Salt Lake City, so it would seem safe to assume that it's America, but the cast are clearly British or Eastern European (they might be attempting American accents, but they ain't fooling anyone). The kills are terrible - unimaginative with pathetic practical effects and plenty of unconvincing CGI blood. And director Andrea M. Catinella even has the audacity to rip-off The Texas Chain Saw Massacre with a really lame dinner table scene, but he's no Tobe Hooper. Not even when Tobe Hooper was crap.

Unfortunately, this trend for subverting childhood favourites seems to be continuing unabated; it's hard to see how they could get any worse than this one, I suppose. I rate Piglet 1/10.

It's unclear to me how people continuously are able to scrap enough money together to make these movies. There's absolutely nothing new to see in this movie. A masked killer (and family) kills everyone they see. I think this would be better if Piglet actually was a pig man instead of some deformed guy wearing a pig mask. If they would have had 2 or 3 masks and used them in each shot Piglet was in, they could just re-release the movie with whatever mask he was wearing....maybe a possum! The rest is pretty cliche, the characters make bad decisions, there are side characters to up the kill count and create awkward, unnecessary scenes in the film, etc. Honestly though, pick something else to watch...

The movie is so bad it makes Astro bot look more scarier the blood effects were so bad made the ps1 games look like they had better graphics when I watched it it made me feel like I committed a hate crime especially when they held the blonde guy at gun point even though he told them to leave and saved them from wish piglet they still decide to hold him at gun point was just so stupid. I rather watch a broken condom for 24 hours so don't watch it.

Hello Piglet, this is not based on the Twisted Childhood Nightmares Trilogy, oh no this is a completely different story of Piglet, the mask looks very similar to 2023's Blood and Honey. You may think that this movie is good, well in my book, it is very underrated film about a big Piglet mask murdering tourists that visit for the week. Well some of them using practical effects and rest of them were done in CG just to fill the rest of the B-horror budget. Dialogue for characters is kinda hear it but not as frequent. The campgrounds manager reveals who he's working with early on the film. Very noticeable. This is very underrated film to the Blood & Honey 4.7/10. Underrated and mediocre.
