    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.
