#10 Movie Research — Research

    I watched a movie with my friends to try and get a feel of what a horror film is like. The movie I watched is called Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey, you can watch it free on Tubi.

 

Movie Summary

    This movie was released on January 24, 2023. The plot of the movie is that Christohpher Robin leaves Pooh and the others to go to college, this loss makes the animals despise him and other humans since without him, they have no food. Eventually, on the brink of hunger, they decide to each one of themselves, losing a friend and their humanity. When Christopher comes back with his fiancé in hand, Pooh and Piglet kill his wife and keep Christopher to torture him. The movie fast forwards a few months with Christopher still in captivity; a group of girls go to the woods where Pooh and Piglet are for vacation. The first one to be killed (I forgot her name) is one of the girls who lost her way to the cabin and, I think, got thrown into a woodchipper. The next one of the girls to die is Lara, who was outside in the jacuzzi by herself. Afterwards, the rest of the girls run away and eventually killed one by one. In the end, all the girls die; however, they managed to help Christopher escape. His death was never shown though, so it's safe to say he might still be alive. 

My opinion and review

    The movie was a great idea, but that's mostly what it was, in my opinion. The plot needed some alterations, but overall, it was good. When watching this movie, the characters made me mad, they just kept running horns first into the danger. The group of girls acted so stereotypically; Alice helped a lot by killing Piglet with the sledgehammer though. They had such amazing settings: the house, the forest, the run down gasoline station, Pooh and Piglet's cabin...

    The masks make me uncomfortable, they look fake. To me, that's both a good and bad thing. I know I would be terrified if someone with a cheap mask was looking at me through the window. The props and editing were amazing too, the deaths and torture devices all sounded and looked so real.
