Here’s the trailer for the upcopming R-rated Bambi horror film, Bambi: The Reckoning, which is part of that “Poohniverse” and comes from the team behind Winnie The Pooh: Blood and Honey and eter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare.
Bambi: The Reckoning is described as “Cujo meets Jurassic Park.” In the film, “After a mother and son get in a car wreck, they soon become hunted by Bambi, a mutated grief-stricken deer on a deadly rampage seeking revenge for the death of his mother.”
Director Dan Allen (Unhinged) previously talked about the movie, saying: “It’s gonna be terrifying. When people see a deer in the wild after this film they’re gonna run for the hills.
“This film is about the death of childhoods as much as it’s gonna ruin childhoods Expect bloodshed, tears and rabbits… and one mean killer deer. At last, the British countryside will finally get its Godzilla.”
The film will be executive produced by Rhys Frake-Waterfield and Scott Jeffrey, who said: “The film will be an incredibly dark retelling of the 1928 story we all know and love. Finding inspiration from the design used in Netflix’s The Ritual, Bambi will be a vicious killing machine that lurks in the wilderness. Prepare for Bambi on rabies!”
Roxanne Mckee (Wrong Turn 5, Game of Thrones) stars in the lead role as Xana alongside Tom Mulheron as her son. Nicola Wright (Sexy Beast), Samira Mighty (Beauty and the Beast), Alex Cooke (Blood Vessel), and Russell Geoffrey Banks (Ghost House) also star.
