Miami, Florida's Academy of Innovative Education innovatively educated a class of 9 and 10-year-old students earlier this month after a math teacher showed them 30 minutes of the infamous low-budget slasher flick Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey, leading to much hand-wringing from concerned parents.


The film, which critics agree isn't very good, became the center of a small debate about public domain laws, as it was made just months after A.A. Milne's wholesome, child-friendly Winnie the Pooh character entered public domain. The film sees Pooh and Piglet going on a murderous rampage after Christopher Robin abandons them.

The film is not rated, but Parent Previews wrote a guide detailing the types of content present in the film that would generally get the film an R rating. For example, under "violence," the site notes:

There are frequent scenes of people being stabbed, bludgeoned, whipped, beaten, and cut. A character’s head is crushed under a car. A woman is fed into a woodchipper. A man is flogged and showered in blood. A woman is beheaded.

The film also has a naked chest, profanity and "a brief shot of a character drinking wine."

As one may imagine, parents were upset upon hearing their grade-school children were subjected to the film in math class.

"(The teacher) didn't stop the movie, even though there were kids saying, 'Hey, stop the movie, we don't want to want this,'" one parent, Michelle Diaz, told CBS. The children had chosen the film, and apparently regretted their decision.

While the parents were distraught, several online found the situation pretty funny, imagining the awkwardness of a group of children with little conception of "irony" and "copyright laws" were shown a slasher flick starring a beloved children's character. Others were horrified that children were subjected to the film — instead of a more respected slasher flick like Halloween.

The real crime is the movie stinks. Show them "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" instead.

The school responded to an inquiry by CBS, writing:

"The Academy for Innovative Education has become aware that a segment of a horror movie was shown to fourth graders, Monday, October 2, 2023, that was not suitable for the age group," the statement said. "Our administration promptly addressed this issue directly with the teacher and has taken appropriate action to ensure the safety and well-being of students."

Suffice to say, it's unlikely these children nor their parents will seek out Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2.
