Pinocchio Slasher Film From ‘Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey’ Team Casts Horror Vets Robert Englund and Richard Brake (EXCLUSIVE)
Horror vets Richard Brake and Robert Englund have joined the cast of 'Pinocchio: Unstrung,' from the team behind 'Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey.'
Robert Englund, who famously played the murderous horror icon across the “Nightmare on Elm Street” films, will star in “Pinocchio: Unstrung,” the latest standalone feature to join the so-called low-budget Twisted Childhood Universe. Meanwhile, Variety is able to reveal a first-look of the actual — and fully practical — Pinocchio doll, created by Todd Masters, the Emmy-winning special effects artist known for “Tales From the Crypt: Demon Knight” and “Child’s Play” (he also worked on “Dune: Part Two”). The various films in the Twisted Childhood Universe — which alongside “Pinocchio: Unstrung” also includes “Bambi: The Reckoning” and, of course, the two “Blood and Honey” features — are all building toward “Poohniverse Monsters Assemble,” an Avengers-style crossover bringing together various other beloved children’s characters gone (very) bad.
