Mouse of Horrors

I usually give low budget films credit but I could not with this one.

This film had me hooked! Sure there were a few bad bits of dialogue and acting but that's what comes with low budget films and I love it! But then the ending arrived... And the whole film just collapsed and fell apart.

This editing had to be (I'm sorry to the editor but I have to be brutally honest.) some of the WORST editing I have ever seen. The sound effects are absolutely awful and the attempt at CGI is absolutely laughable.

Lewis Santer brought this film alive with his acting, but other than that, there's not a lot of good things to say. The editing, CGI, and sound work drag this film down extremely. The dialogue is pretty bad too.

I'm not even sure if this or The Mouse Trap was worse. That's saying a lot because The Mouse Trap was straight ass. Stop making Mickey Mouse horror films because there is no right way to do it.

Granted, I harbored absolutely zero expectations to this 2025 horror movie, as I've watched the likes of horror movies taking on classic characters such as Winnie the Pooh, Piglet and Popeye, and they haven't exactly been stellar movies. Yet, I still opted to watch "Mouse of Horrors" on account of it being a horror movie that I hadn't already seen before.

Writers Harry Boxley and Marc Gottlieb put together a fair enough script. Sure, it was rather generic, even for a slasher movie, but it proved to be entertaining enough for the silly premise that it was.

So the movie ties in with the 2023 "Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey" movie and the 2024 "Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey II" movie, as killer Pooh shows up in the narrative.

The only familiar face on the cast list was Danielle Scott. Yeah, I've seen enough low budget horror movies to be familiar with her. The acting performances in "Mouse of Horrors" were actually fair enough, taking into consideration the premise of the script.

Visually, I found the movie to be adequate. There are some viscerally graphic murder scenes which made up for the otherwise bland storyline. Most of the special effects were actually not bad, but some were just laughable to look at.

The movie is tacky, sure. And if you are a diehard horror fan then I doubt you'll find much entertainment in the movie. But if you don't mind your horror movies mixed with a hefty doze of silly concepts, then perhaps you'll find some enjoyment in "Mouse of Horrors". I found "Mouse of Horrors" suitable enough for a single viewing.

My rating of director Brendan Petrizzo's 2025 movie "Mouse of Horrors" lands on a four out of ten stars.

I don't know know where to begin. Everyone in this movie is stupid and wants to die., apparently? No one runs from the killer. Most of them are literally walking away from the masked killer they're so afraid of. The time sequences make no sense. One minute the killer is maiming a "teen"in a completely different section of the park and the next minute, they're chasing a different person on the opposite end. At one point the killer is fighting with his brother, Pooh bear, on land and in the next cut, they're on a boat.

The editing was terrible. The dubbing was horrible and the sound effects didn't match at all. There was random audience clapping throughout that made no sense. The CGI at the ending was atrocious (they obviously gave up at the end).

Just, nothing made sense. The character's actions made no sense. The dialogue made no sense. And they had the nerve to allude to ANOTHER DAMN MOVIE!!! No one wants that. Everyone involved in this abomination needs to be banned from cinema.

It isn't all bad to be completely fair.

Save for some of the random victims, the acting's fine. The movie doesn't look inherently bad and the gore and kills are all decent to well done.

But the movie ignores the characters you're supposed to care about to a ridiculous level. That might be fine but there's little to no backstory or character interaction at all in the meantime. It's just killing. No rhyme, no reason, and more often than not, not entertaining.

Ultimately it's slow. There's shockingly little story and just focusing on the characters doesn't even happen. It's genuinely difficult to spoil anything about it.

Gratuitous. Kinda the only word.

I'd skip this one.

I literally had to make an IMDB account to give this movie a review. Me and my sister always try to find the dumbest movies on Tubi to watch. I'm a huge horror fan and she gets scared easily, so we try to just watch silly things.

This is likely the worst movie I've ever seen. It was laughable. Bad sound effects, the story didn't flow, why was Pooh from Blood and Honey in it? People would be in one setting one minute then a different one in 2 seconds. And there was a moment where something SO STUPID happens I mean had NOTHING to do with the story. I don't know how this was funded or made. I genuinely appreciate independent cinema, but this was like a teenager with a camera wanted to make a movie with his friends or something. If you wanna laugh and waste a couple hours of time I would deff check this one out.
