From the twisted imagination that reimagined childhood classics comes a chilling new vision with Pinocchio: Unstrung. This horror-inflected reimagining follows Geppetto, a grief-stricken toymaker portrayed by Thomas Kretschmann, whose desperate wish to bring his wooden puppet to life takes a dark and terrifying turn. The moment Pinocchio awakens, he is not the innocent, lovable boy of fairy tales but a vengeful, living doll with a singular, monstrous obsession. As the puppet’s strings become instruments of terror, a young girl named Lily, played by Jaime Scott, must confront the nightmare that has been unleashed upon her quiet town. The film masterfully blends psychological dread with visceral horror, exploring themes of parental grief and the consequences of playing god. With a tone that is both eerie and relentless, Pinocchio: Unstrung pulls viewers into a world where the beloved storybook character is stripped of his charm and becomes something far more sinister, promising a haunting experience for those brave enough to see the truth behind the wooden smile.
