A new slasher film is turning Mickey Mouse into a killer hours after the character entered public domain

• After "Steamboat Willie" entered the public domain, the Mickey Mouse prototype was in a slasher trailer.
• The trailer for "Mickey's Mouse Trap" was made public Monday.

Hours after "Steamboat Willie" entered the public domain on Monday, a trailer dropped for a new slasher movie featuring the 1928 Mickey Mouse prototype.

"Mickey's Mouse Trap" has no release date yet — just a trailer and a knife-swinging villain in a giant Mickey Mouse costume.

"We just wanted to have fun with it all," director Jamie Bailey told The Hollywood Reporter.

"I mean, it's Steamboat Willie's Mickey Mouse murdering people. It's ridiculous," he added. "We ran with it and had fun doing it and I think it shows."

The trailer shows the ravening rodent stalking terrified teenagers through a haunted amusement arcade. "There's blood all over the jungle gym!" a young woman wearing a cleavage-baring camisole complains.

At one point in the trailer, black and white footage of Disney's original Mickey Mouse character is seen playing on a rickety old projector.

"A place for fun, a place for friends, a place for hunting," the trailer advises in flashing red text. "The mouse is out."

Two years ago, "Winnie the Pooh" entered the public domain and similarly was soon starring in a slasher movie called "Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey."

The violent reimagining of the beloved A.A. Milne character caused a stir in a Florida elementary school when a fourth-grade math class inadvertently screened the movie.
