well this is actually very close to the real Brothers Grimm version of Cinderella. The one step sister "fixes" her toes, while the other "fixes" the rest. I think people forget how dark the o. g Cinderella really is. I was going to pass on this movie, but I'm glad I didn't!

It was slow for sure, but that eyelash scene. . . hoo-boy.

Holy shit - I had no clue body dysmorphia by proxy existed until this movie. Supremely fucked up and morbidly hilarious at some points. The Grimm brothers would be proud to have inspired such a masterpiece.

I have to give this five skulls because I couldn’t take my eyes off of it. This was a wild ride. And the lead actress was outstanding. What a film! I loved this take on Cinderella and her stepsisters. Bravo!

trying to reinvent the Cinderella story. But let’s be honest… no amount of fairy dust can turn this pumpkin into a carriage. It tries so hard to be macabre and is even innovative portraying Cindy as a dominatrix (kudos) — but overall, it once again delivers another version of bargain-bin glass slipper than a dazzling royal ball. No magic or mystery here.
