Classic children’s tales including Winnie the Pooh and How the Grinch Stole Christmas have been (unofficially) turned into bloody horror films in the recent past, and Cinderella is next finding herself on the chopping block. Bloody Disgusting can exclusively report today that Cinderella is getting the horror treatment with upcoming movie Cinderella’s Curse.

Coming soon from ChampDog Films, Cinderella’s Curse is going up for sale at AFM, and Bloody Disgusting has also learned that ITN Studios will be releasing the film in October 2023.

Filming begins next month in the UK.

Produced and Directed by Louisa Warren, the film is written by Harry Boxley (Mary Had A Little Lamb). The cast includes Kelly Rian Sanson, Chrissie Wunna and Danielle Scott.

Louisa Warren tells Bloody Disgusting, “This an incredibly unique spin on the Cinderella we all love and know. There are going to be some truly horrific deaths by her hands.

“I think the gore hounds are in for a treat in my dark retelling.”
