The film punches above its weight on craftsmanship, with decadently gory strangulations and decapitations that could have been ripped from a much more expensive production. The benefit of setting a low bar is that it’s easy to clear, and nobody can accuse “Blood and Honey” of not delivering on those promises.
You’re paying to see Winnie the Pooh and Piglet brutally murder a bunch of people, story be damned! In the same way old women-in-prison movies would blatantly advertise a nude shower scene and knockoff slasher flicks would list the types of dismemberment that they showed on their posters, “Blood and Honey” makes no attempt to hide its simple value proposition. Not an era where movies were better - because it’s not particularly good - but a time when a film could be produced, marketed, and turn a profit just by promising audiences an image they hadn’t seen before. “Blood and Honey” feels like a throwback to a simpler era of filmmaking. ‘Love Again’ Review: Not Even Celine Dion Can Save This Wildly Contrived Rom-Com from Its Own Sadness
