Coming soon from ITN Studios is the slasher movie Piglet, the latest twisted take on a public domain character from the Pooh universe, and we’ve got the trailer for you this afternoon.

For clarity, this project is not part of the public domain universe known as the “Poohniverse,” which began with Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey. Same idea, different team.

Watch the official Piglet trailer below and expect a release date soon.

Can't understand the appeal of these movies.

Return on investment. They cost nothing to make, and make money for some reason

Minimal budget, plus viral news stories meaning they don't spend much on advertising. It then attracts the morbidly curious as well as the slasher fan and makes enough back thst everyone got paid and wants to make a sequel.

Not see Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey, so I can't comment on the content.

ITN Studios make a tonne of these and they usually go straight to streaming where they catch bored eyeballs with recognisable names in the title and a lurid cover and premise - upcoming they have Bambi: The Reckoning, Cinderella's Curse and Neverland Nightmare. They'll be a well-oiled machine that can bang these out with similar teams in front and behind the cameras.
