This folktale reworking of the Cinderella story is a bold, brutal and grotesque horror that is deliciously women-centric.
Combining comedy and horror, the film is a daring and unexpected take on the world-famous tale, seen through the eyes of Cinderella’s stepsister, Elvira.
The gory film follows Elvira as she battles to compete with her insanely beautiful stepsister in a kingdom where beauty is a brutal business. She will go to any lengths to catch the prince’s eye.
Taking a hammer and chisel to a quintessential fairy tale, The Ugly Stepsister's masterful application of gore and subversion are the stuff that nightmares are made of.
