Piglet

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.

When I sat down to watch the 2025 horror movie "Piglet", I have to admit that I was harboring very, very low expectations to the movie. Yeah, I wasn't exactly overly keen on the 2023 movie "Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey" nor the 2024 movie "Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey II". But still, since it was a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to check it out.

The movie was watchable, I will give it that much. Sure, you're not in for an evening of stellar entertainment, but were you expecting that from a movie titled "Piglet" and with its premise and synopsis? Hardly so. So yeah, you pretty much would get what you would assume from a movie such as this. And I suppose on that account, then writer Harry Boxley did a fair enough job. It was a rather generic slasher horror script, if you look past the fact that this was supposed to be Piglet.

I was not familiar with the actors and actresses on the cast list. I will say that the acting performances were fair, but nothing outstanding or noteworthy though.

Visually, the movie was semi-okay. There were some special effects that were fair enough, and they helped lift up the otherwise bland narrative.

Would I recommend you to go out and watch "Piglet"? No. Will I ever return to watch it a second time? No.

My rating of director Andrea M. Catinella's 2025 movie "Piglet" lands on a generous four out of ten stars.

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...

I recently watched the UK film 🇬🇧 Piglet (2025) on Tubi. The story follows a man who escapes captivity and takes refuge in the woods, leaving behind a pattern of disturbing acts. When a 21-year-old woman decides that a birthday camping trip with her friend is just what she needs, she soon realizes she's chosen the wrong woods to celebrate in...

Directed by Andrea M. Catinella (Mouseboat Massacre), the film stars Alexander Butler (All Roads Lead Home), Alina Desmond (Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2), and Shayli Reagan (Mouseboat Massacre).

At first, Piglet seems like it might turn out okay. The setup is solid, and the villain is decently conceived. The kill scenes feature some effective gore and blood splatter, and the film includes some visually appealing sequences, along with nudity and random girl-on-girl action typical of this niche horror trend.

Unfortunately, things go downhill quickly. As the story unfolds, the plot deteriorates, and the addition of Piglet's human sidekick only makes things worse. By the time the final showdown arrives, it feels flat, awkward, and ultimately disappointing.

In conclusion, Piglet is the weakest entry yet in this growing subgenre of twisted fairy tale horror. I'd score it a 3/10.

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.
