So, we know I love horror movies and yeah, sometimes I complain about them not being scary anymore but, I also have these days when I feel like watching really bad horror movies. You know, those with terrible effects, bad acting and even funny in way when they are not supposed to be funny. Why? just for entertainment, haha. Some of these movies were SO bad that I actually enjoyed them, I don't know if that's weird.
So today, I'm gonna share some of them with you. This is just my personal opinion, I'm sure there are people out there who actually like these movies. What can I say? There's something for everyone.
Anyway, let's start. These are in no particular order.
Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey
"As a young Christopher forsakes Winnie-the-Pooh and Piglet, their innocence decays. Soon, the two unleash their feral impulses, developing an insatiable hunger for blood."
I didn't know there was a Winnie The Pooh horror movie, it never crossed my mind until one of my 3rd grade students told me about it, he saw parts of it on TikTok and kinda recommended it since he knew I loved horror.
It is a movie from 2023 and it's an independent British slasher. I kinda like the idea of classic tales and characters in a darker story and I also know there are some really good independent horror movies out there but... this was not the case. At least for me.
It's bloody, of course but, it lacks lots of other things to make it a good slasher. Yeah, the idea is the typical one, girls going on holiday and getting killed by these giant fantasy characters (that really look like dudes wearing masks) but, is really predictable and acting isn't bad but is not the best either. I don't remember where I watched this movie but I'm sure it's not difficult to find online.
I watched this movie back in 2023 but decided to include it here, not only because I never talked about it but also because I found out there was second movie not long ago...
Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2
"Not wanting to live in the shadows any longer, Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet, Owl and Tigger take their fight to the town of Ashdown, leaving a bloody trail of death and mayhem in their wake."
I'll admit this one was better than the first movie, not great, just better, it was released last year. Acting improved and Wiinie and the orhers looked a little less costume-like. It's still pretty bloody and gory and it has SO many random deaths. In this movie we actually learn more about where the evil characters come from, why they kill (kinda) and their connection with Christopher. The end leaves a door open for a 3rd movie so, we'll see.
I also found this online, I'm not sure if some streaming platforms have it.
Baby Doll
"Four foreign exchange students are forced to take shelter in an abandoned home after discovering the villa they were supposed to be staying in is no longer available. Before long, one of the students hears whispers and sees creepy things everywhere."
This is a 2021 Italian horror movie, not sure if it was independent too. There's something about dolls in horror movies that could be really good but this one didn't do it for me. Acting wasn't believable, effects were off and... I think this one was my least favorite out of this list. The idea and the story weren't new but, it could've worked. I just think it wasn't executed that well.
You can find this on Tubi.
And now, in case we didn't have enough classic tales, we have a Humpty Dumpty triology... yeah. I watchend them in the wrong order and, even tho the first one I watched was bad, I wanted to watch more after I finished that one so, I ended up watching the 3 movies. They are all available on Tubi too.
The Curse of Humpty Dumpty
