Pinocchio Unstrung‘s trailer has no right going this hard. This is straight-up old-school Full Moon energy at its absolute peak. Horror fans are about to eat.
From ITN, the company behind 2024’s micro-budget smash hit Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey, comes the ultra-gory Pinocchio Unstrung, in which Pinocchio wants to be a real boy so badly he’ll go on a gory, murderous rampage to get there.
The dark coming-of-age reimagining of Pinocchio follows the iconic puppet’s disturbing journey toward becoming real.
It stars Richard Brake (31, The Strangers) as Geppetto, Robert Englund (A Nightmare on Elm Street) as a terrifying Cricket, and Cameron Bell as James.
The film is written and directed by Rhys Frake-Waterfield.
Emmy winner Todd Masters oversees the practical animatronics, which look phenomenal. ITN Distribution is overseeing the release, with a theatrical date currently being scheduled worldwide. Premiere Entertainment Group is repping sales.
Pinocchio Unstrung is the latest standalone addition to Jagged Edge’s growing low-budget Twisted Childhood Universe, which currently includes Blood and Honey and its sequel, Bambi: The Reckoning and Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare. A third Blood and Honey is set to shoot soon, while Poohniverse Monsters Assemble, the Avengers-esque crossover film bringing all the characters together for an IP bloodbath, is in development.
