Written by Patti Pauley

For the first time 12 years, Doug Bradley who made Clive Barker’s spawn from Hell Pinhead an iconic staple of the genre, will once again wear the now legendary Pinhead one more time! And we have pictures! Holy Cenobites Kirsty, this is about as glorious as this gets today! In honor of Bradley transporting us all back to Hell one more time, let’s take a look at when and where you can see this one in a lifetime event and some behind the scenes pictures to tease the crap out of you…

Pinhead

 

If you’ve been following the Hellraiser franchise as of late, you and I both know it may very unlikely that Bradley will ever play Pinhead once again in a Hellraiser film; However, horror makeup magician Tom Savini, Kyle Roberts and Steve Tolin of Tolin FX, Allison and Sean Boyle, and Bradley himself have teamed up for a special treat for fans attending the Mad Monster Party in Arizona next weekend in what they’re calling ever so appropriately, The Pinhead Experience- you can purchase tickets to this national treasure of an event by clicking here.

In anticipation for next weekend’s fantastic voyage through Hell at Mad Monster Party Arizona, Doug Bradley released some sneak peeks via his Instagram of him in (almost) full Pinhead makeup! Check it out!

 

 

Just going to go ahead and point out how extremely jealous I am of anyone able to attend this prestigious event, so I’m just going to leave this right here for anyone that will be witnessing this spectacle in all its hellish glory.

‘Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 3’ Is a Go with Enhanced Budget and New Characters

Published

Winnie the Pooh 3

Wow, they’re churning things out fast! The upcoming sequel “Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 3” is officially moving forward, promising an expanded narrative with a larger budget and the introduction of beloved characters from A.A. Milne’s original tales. As confirmed by Variety, the third installment in the horror franchise will welcome Rabbit, the heffalumps, and the woozles into its dark and twisted narrative.

This sequel is a part of an ambitious cinematic universe that reimagines children’s stories as horror tales. Alongside “Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey” and its first sequel, the universe includes films such as “Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare”, “Bambi: The Reckoning,” and “Pinocchio Unstrung”. These movies are set to converge in the crossover event “Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble,” slated for a 2025 release.

The creation of these films was made possible when A.A. Milne’s 1926 children’s book “Winnie-the-Pooh” entered the public domain last year, allowing filmmakers to explore these cherished characters in unprecedented ways. Director Rhys Frake-Waterfield and producer Scott Jeffrey Chambers, of Jagged Edge Productions, have led the charge in this innovative endeavor.

The inclusion of Rabbit, heffalumps, and woozles in the upcoming sequel introduces a new layer to the franchise. In Milne’s original stories, heffalumps are imagined creatures resembling elephants, while woozles are known for their weasel-like characteristics and a penchant for stealing honey. Their roles in the narrative remain to be seen, but their addition promises to enrich the horror universe with deeper connections to the source material.
