Determined to outshine her beautiful stepsister, Elvira resorts to extreme measures to win the prince's heart in this dark re-imagining of the Cinderella fairy tale.

We're jumping to the U's for a second to bring you guys Den Stygge Stesøsteren (2025) - The Ugly Stepsister for us English speakers, and this one is a DOOZY. Y'all, this one is so good. It's so gross. It's so good and so gross. A beautiful body horror nightmare that had us literally squirming in our seats and nauseated just thinking about some of the scenes. Love that for us. Also mentioned are the SAW escape room, children's literature academic Maria Tatar, and how many wieners and buttholes should be in Cinderella.
