A few months ago, Disney released a live-action version of Snow White, and it was a horror. The Death of Snow White is a Horror movie, but it is the most enjoyable adaptation of a fairytale I have seen since Ever After.
The movie starts off with Snow White’s (Sanae Loutsis) mother being forced to give birth to her because she was poisoned, and the baby will die if she doesn’t deliver her immediately. So, the doctors performed a C-section on her, and at that time, the outcome was fatal.
The movie then skips forward to a teenage Snow White hanging out at a faire with her friends, and she is enamored by a Prince (Tristan Nokes), who feels the same way.
In this scene, we get to see how sweet she is, and she is a Princess for the people, unlike her stepmother, the Evil Queen (Chelsea Edmundson). If you thought all of her other portrayals were evil, they ain’t got nothing on this one.
She is sadistic in a way that makes her the evilest one of all. She thrives on torturing people and enjoys soaking in their blood. She does this because she needs their blood to maintain her youth and beauty. And now she is after Snow White’s heart because the mirror deems the Princess to be the fairest one of all.
She sends Huntsmen after the Princess, and they chase her into the dark forest where she escapes. The injured Princess is rescued by the Seven Dwarves, who each have different powers.
Snow White wins them over, and they will do anything to protect her. However, they left her alone in the house, and that is when the Evil Queen transforms into an old lady and gives her the poisoned apple, which puts her into a permanent sleep. Once she is asleep, the Queen kidnaps her and takes her back to the castle.
So when the Prince shows up at the Dwarves’ house to rescue her, and she is not there, they agree to band together to take on the Evil Queen to save her. Instead of whistling while they work, they are ready to fight to the death. And they will.
Will Snow White and the Prince get their happy ending?
This is not a Disney fairytale, so you will have to watch the movie, which is available now to watch on all the popular streaming sites.
I will warn you, I am not faint of heart, but there were a few scenes where I had to cover my eyes because I didn’t want to see what she and her servants were doing. As I said, the Evil Queen is sadistic and likes to torture people. Thus, she does immeasurably cruel things to others and to herself.
While there were a few overly graphic scenes throughout the film, there were also so many beautiful and heartfelt scenes to enjoy.
The film was shot in Woodinville, Washington, which provides a stunning backdrop for the calm moments of the movie. And there are parts of the city that put the dark in the dark forest.
Unlike Rachel Zegler, Loutsis is lovable in the title role. You can see why everyone, except the Evil Queen, adores her. She is kind, caring, and pretty. She is how you picture the live-action version of Snow White to look and act.
Then there is Edmundson, who is gorgeous, but also so freaking good at playing evil. You root for her demise.
This is not the Snow White I grew up with, but it is the Snow White I will grow old with. It is the type of movie you can watch over and over again. It is a fairytale for adults to enjoy.
Massive kudos to Jason Brooks, who wrote, directed, and edited this film.
Back in 2024, Mickey Mouse entered the public domain through the Steamboat Willie movie, which was released in 1928. He did not enter it alone; Minnie Mouse was also there. However, she was ignored.
That is until now. B22 Films is giving Minnie her own flick, Minnie’s Midnight Massacre. The film sees Steamboat Willie’s first mate, Minnie, go on a killing spree when seeking revenge against the childhood bullies who tortured her as a teenager.
Brett Bentman, who wrote and directed the film, told Deadline, “We wanted to bring the black and white sidekick to life. We’d see Willie in all these reimaginings, but what about Minnie? Why not give her some spotlight?”
Amen. I can’t wait to see Minnie become a bad ass meanie!
Forget Jonathan Bailey and Scarlett Johansson, the real star of Jurassic World Rebirth is Delores the Dinosaur.
Don’t believe me? Even Rupert Friend said he “would not be surprised if she is everyone’s favorite character in the film.” She is mine, and I have not seen the film that comes out on Wednesday.
The puppy-sized dino is an Aquilops, and sadly, she doesn’t exist off of the screen. But I am going to dream she does, and I will want to own one. Thankfully, there are a lot of toys in her image. But they are not the same.
Why can’t someone clone the fossil they found and bring her to life? What else are scientists working on since this administration is making them stop working on vaccines and cures for things like cancer?
There is a movie called The Death of Snow White, and it is not about how Rachel Zegler killed the live-action movie. Instead, it is a really dark and bloody version of the fairytale.
The Death of Snow White is a terrifying dark fantasy movie with elements of intense horror that feature a dark story, brutal violence, practical special FX, and killer dwarves using a live-action cast of little people actors, we aim to challenge the audience’s expectations and keep them on the edge of their seats until the very end.
I don’t know about you, but I am all about the killing machine dwarves! I can’t wait to see them go from whistling to slashing!
The film is available to stream starting on July 1st.
In 1986, Witchboard put a curse on moviegoers, and it spawned two sequels. On August 15th, Witchboard is getting a remake that feels more like an ’80s movie than the original.
In New Orleans, Emily (Madison Iseman) and her fiancé Christian (Aaron Dominguez) are opening their new dream café. But their dreams are dashed when Emily finds an ancient, cursed Witchboard, an ancient artifact that once served as a gateway to the spirit world. As Emily becomes increasingly captivated by the board’s ability to summon spirits, Christian seeks the expertise of Alexander Babtiste (Jamie Campbell Bower), an enigmatic occult scholar. As Emily’s grip on reality weakens, Babtiste’s true intentions come to light—to use the Witchboard’s dark power for his own twisted purposes.
Culminating in a decadent masked ball at Babtiste’s mansion, the line between temptation and terror blurs as Emily and Christian find themselves trapped in a deadly web of witchcraft and dark desires. Emily and Christian must race against time to break the board’s curse before they succumb to its deadly power!
I hope this film is better than the ’86 movie it is based on because I shut that piece of crap off after a half hour. And that was when I was a fan of Stephen Nichols.
