Rumbly Tumbly
This poster was inspired by the news that a Winnie The Pooh had entered the public domain, and that there would be a horror movie made using the titular character. While I haven’t seen the movie, I came up with a concept of my own.
Winnie The Pooh has gone mad.
The Hundred Acre Wood is no longer the idyllic wilderness we once knew. Pooh’s hunger grows more and more insatiable by the day, and now it seems that honey just won’t do. As he lurks the woods for his next victim(s), the growl of Pooh Bear’s rumbly tumbly gives him away every time. Not that it makes a difference. The growl that follows comes not from his stomach, but from his throat, and it’s always the last thing that people hear before being swallowed whole. In The Hundred Acre Wood, there is no darker place than the inside of Winnie The Pooh’s Rumbly Tumbly.
