The Bambi horror film can be reaching theatres on July 25th, courtesy of Seismic Releasing – and with that date proper across the nook, a brand new trailer for the movie has dropped on-line.

Jeffrey and Frake-Waterfield are producing Bambi: The Reckoning for Jagged Edge Productions. Stuart Alson and Nicole Holland function government producers for ITN Studios.

As I’ve stated earlier than, each time I hear about Bambi: The Reckoning it makes me want Kevin Smith and somebody (maybe Lionsgate) would get rolling on Moose Jaws, the “Jaws with a moose” film Smith has been hoping to make for a number of years now. I’ve been hoping to see it ever since he began speaking about, and I by no means would have thought {that a} Bambi horror film would beat Moose Jaws into manufacturing. Whereas ITN Studios and Jagged Edge Productions work on Bambi: The Reckoning, Disney can be engaged on a live-action adaptation of their Bambi that could be directed by Sarah Polley.
This cinematic universe is called The Twisted Childhood Universe, and it’s constructing as much as a crossover film referred to as Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble, which is able to function Pooh, Tigger, Rabbit, Owl, Piglet, Pinocchio, Sleeping Magnificence, Bambi, The Mad Hatter, Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, and Mary Poppins.
