Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey has swept the board at the Razzie Awards, winning five of the 10 categories.
Axar.az reports that the slasher film took advantage of the copyright for AA Milne's classic tale expiring, and reimagined the characters of the Hundred Acre Wood as vicious serial killers.
Announced the day before the Oscars reward Hollywood's finest, the Razzies name and shame the year's worst films.
The organizers describe their awards as the "ugly cousin to the Oscars".
When it was released last year, the Pooh film received a string of downright awful reviews.
The Guardian called it a "a terrifying combination of not-scary and not-funny" awarding it one star, while Empire said it was "the poorest writing and acting seen in a theatrically-released horror film in living memory".
The movie won worst picture, worst screenplay, worst director and worst rip-off. Pooh and Piglet, depicted in the film as blood-thirsty killers, also won worst on-screen couple.
But the negative reviews have not deterred director Rhys Frake-Waterfield, who won worst director. He has announced a sequel to the film and other horror films centring on beloved children characters such as Bambi and Peter Pan.
