Winnie the Pooh - Tutto sangue e niente miele

Please don't waste your money. You would think with a higher budget they might be able to produce something somewhat palatable but alas it did not deliver (not even close). Some of the worst acting I've ever seen, the costumes are awful, the story itself is just bad and the special effects are so very cheap. The death scenes were lacking as well as any sort of character development or decent plot or twists. I don't know why they thought this would work but it most certainly does not. I've seen some bad horror over the years but this one takes the cake. The only thing 'horror' about this is how horrifically terrible it is. Take my advice and DO NOT waste your time.

Compared to the first movie, this movie is a dramatic improvement. The first movie had an identity crisis; it didn't know what it wanted to be. It was split between telling a story recognizable (albeit turned dark) to the source material and being a generic slasher. As a result, we ended up with the first ten minutes of the movie being surprisingly interesting, creepy, and engaging while the rest of the film felt simple, unthoughtful, and frankly not scary at all.

This movie throws all that aside. Instead of trying to tell a clear "Winnie-the-Pooh" story and getting lost when that theme inherently doesn't work for an extended storyline, it takes the characters (and to some extent the settings) of Winnie-the-Pooh and simply tries to make a slasher. You don't need to have any personal connection to Winnie-the-Pooh for this film to be decent. It has about as much plot as a slasher needs (which while minimal is significantly more than the first), the killings are adequately brutal, and you actually care (at least a little) about the characters. While I was still left with some disappointment over how certain plot points were explained, it was altogether not bad.

While I think this was actually a solid slasher film, there is only so high of a score a slasher film will get. It was enjoyable, but certainly not the epitome of horror, but is worth a watch if you are into the genre. Excited for part 3.

Winnie The Pooh: Blood And Honey II is a huge improvement in every single way. Obviously, this one has a bigger budget (around 330k in comparison to the meagre 50k for the original) but it really does show. For starters, the creatures no longer look like they are just Halloween masks, they actually do resemble actual hybrid creatures with proper movements thanks to the excellent prosthetics. The acting has massively improved too, with Scott Chambers the new Christopher Robin (he is a standout I must say), Tallulah Evans is great too, and also a turn from established British actor, Simon Callow. There's also a decent story here now as well. The team behind the original have joined up with Matt Leslie, who wrote the brilliant Summer Of '84 and created a very interesting premise for the Pooh universe to expand and bring in further characters for the upcoming Poohniverse which has recently been teased!

There's a hell of a lot crammed in to the 85 minute run time. An interesting story, but there's a lot of fun too! Great set pieces, include a rave scene in which Pooh and friends slice and dice their way through a host of party goers. There's a lot of gore here too, mostly practical, but a bit of CGI too (probably down to the still relatively low budget).

All in all, I had a great time with this. The team need praise for actually showing resilience to come back from the pounding they took from the first one to actually learn from the criticism and come back to make something that is as good as this.

Horror fans should enjoy this, and I'd advise trying to see it in a cinema with like-minded fans for the best experience!

In Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2, there are some things that are better than the original. But despite that, the movie remains below normal rqgarding its level.

In the movie, I praised the story and the more elements and revelations it has than the original, visual and sound effects, which were a lot better than the first installment, screenplay, cinematography, and ending, which paves the way for the next films in the Twisted Childhood Universe.

But the other elements, like the performances of the cast, soundtrack, and direction were very normal, even below than normal. Even the elements that I praised, although they are better in this installment than the first one, they did not reach an excellent level like the movies of these days. That is why when it comes to the score, I give Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 5 out of 10.

First of all, all the 1 out 10 scores and people saying its worse than the 1st are REVIEW BOMBERS!

Right through, im glad movies like this exist. Not cause its a masterpiece (not even close) but its refreshing to see regular peoples ideas with IPs do a 180, this is is a movie that should have never existed, yet it does!

How does this movie feel?

Imagine driving home at 10pm, its rainy and you see a Video Store, you enter and in the back of this dim litted area you see a DVD with no artwork, just a paper with sharpie written "Winne The Pooh: Blood & Honey 2" you rent it cause of curiosity, you watch it in your apartment that night and think "what did I just watch?, is this real?" You talk about it the next day and no one knows what the heck you are talking about. The next day that video store is gone.

Its just...an odd experience that makes you feel you are watching something no one else knows about.

Its watchable for that! Not awful, but maybe if they dedicated at least one more year on the script this could have been really good.

Its more good than it is bad but still not where I know they want to bring thos, I see the vision getting closer, keep going guys. Bring back Eeyore for the 3rd!
