‘Mouse of Horrors’ Trailer Unleashes the Next Bootleg Mickey Mouse Slasher Villain

Originally announced under the title The Mouse Experiment, ITN Studios has announced today that their upcoming Mickey-inspired horror movie is now titled Mouse of Horrors.

Watch the official trailer for Mouse of Horrors below, coming soon.

In the upcoming Mickey Mouse horror movie, “The film follows a group of friends stuck at a fairground amusement park hunted down by a mutated rat – STEAMBOAT WILLIE.”

Brendan Petrizzo directed the indie slasher Mouse of Horrors, which stars Natasha Tosini, Lewis Santer, Nichaela Farrell, Michelle Bauer, Allie Moreno, and Tessa Wood.

For the sake of clarity, this film is NOT part of the growing “Poohniverse.”

The classic short film that introduced Mickey Mouse to the world, 1928’s Steamboat Willie has officially entered the public domain, which means filmmakers don’t need the permission of Disney to use that original incarnation of Mickey in their movies. And a whole bunch of them are taking advantage, with a slew of twisted Mickey projects already in the works.

The first of these features was The Mouse Trap, released earlier this year, with Screamboat headed our way next year. And then there’s Mouseboat Massacre, coming soon.
