Watch Pooh Horror Movie Composer Make Horrific Bee-Filled Violin

Attachment 54833

A new video sees Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey's composer creating a bee-filled violin for the film's music. Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey is a bizarre upcoming film that will see the beloved childhood icon transformed into a deranged killer. Blood and Honey became possible after A.A. Milne's 1926 novel Winnie the Pooh entered the public domain allowing writer-director Rhys Frake-Waterfield to make Pooh, Piglet, and friends (except Tigger, he appeared in a later book) appear in his story.

Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey stars Natasha Tosini, Amber Doig-Thorne, Maria Taylor, Nikolai Leon as Christopher Robin, Chris Cordell as Piglet, and Craig David Dowsett as Pooh Bear. The plot follows Pooh and Piglet as they embark on a violent rampage after Christopher Robin abandons them for college. While images from the film inspire nightmares for most, many horror fans have begun to anticipate the absurd content the independent production looks to be creating.

To help bring the nightmare fuel of Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey to life, composer Andrew Scott Bell (via Dread Central) undertook a journey to utilize a violin filled with bees. Bell found the work of NAME, a luthier who deconstructs and re-contextualizes classical instruments. He saw that NAME was working on a violin filled with bees, which Bell deemed perfect for Blood and Honey. The composer reached out to NAME on Instagram, hoping to utilize the violin for the film's score. Bell then documented the journey to get the violin, which had been resting between two bee hives for almost two years and is now covered in honeycomb. Check out the video of Bell's journey to get a bee-filled violin for Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey below:

Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey already offers enough horrific elements to keep eager viewers ready for its release. Adding a score composed using such a distinct violin only further adds to the film's allure for horror aficionados. With so many horror fans loving macabre details from the productions of their favorite movies, like the use of real skeletons in Poltergeist, Blood and Honey's bee violin could be something fans talk about for years to come if the film ends up making an impact with audiences.

Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey currently doesn't have an official release date. However, after the images and story details from the film went viral, the film's release date could be relieved before the end of the year. Further information about Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey will be forthcoming as the project develops.
