La Venganza De Cenicienta

Nice take on the glasig Cinderella Story.

The approach of assuming that cinderella could have taken bloody revenge on her stepmother and stepsisters for all evil they have done to her is actually a cool approach.

The Tiberius b-Movie vibes are undeniable and make the Movie only watchable for hardcore fans of third class work.

I am really wondering what on Earth made Miss Henstrige agree to play a part in this rather bad picture.

All actors deliver mediocre Performances while the Story more or less follows the original Story with Heavy splatter Moments being added.

The german dubbing is just as bad as you can expect from any Tiberius Production.

Well, if you enjoy the original "Cinderella" tale from Charles Perrault, then chances are that you might also enjoy this reinterpretation from writer Tom Jolliffe, provided you have a thing for homicidal maniac versions of peaceful characters.

I had the opportunity to sit down and watch the 2024 movie "Cinderella's Revenge", and opted to do so since it was a movie that I hadn't even heard about. And given it supposedly being a horror movie, of course I had to check it out. I have to admit, though, that I harbored zero expectations to it, given it's title.

Needless to say that this 2024 take on the story certainly is a lot more dark and sinister than the original story.

Of the entire cast ensemble in the movie, I was only familiar with Natasha Henstridge, and she had but a support role in the movie. It should be noted, however, that the acting performances in the movie were fair enough.

The effects in the movie were adequate. You're not in for anything grand, but the effects do work as intended. There are some nice enough scenes with mayhem and blood to please us gorehounds.

Watchable for what it was, director Andy Edwards's wasn't exactly an outstanding or memorable horror experience. I have to admit that turning the Cinderella character into a homicidal slasher just was a bit of an odd thing. So in a way, I suppose that this was a revenge movie, basically.

My rating of "Cinderella's Revenge" lands on a four out of ten stars.

People really needs to stop using fairy tales' titles to their own sick and twisted slasher movies. And that saying also goes for this movie. This slasher movie took a dump on every values that the original writer has put on Cinderella. They pictured Cinderella as a bloodthirsty murderer who has dumped her ideals on kindness. She wanted revenge on all of the people who have wronged her. And what's up with that psycho fairy godmother who seduces Cinderella into committing homicides?! Usually I'm a sucker for revenge themed movies, but this one is kinda weak on that front. The violence and gore wasn't on point. Especially since you can see how fake the blood is. Besides, the cheap settings didn't help at all. Is that fancy house supposed to be seen as a castle? Maybe people who has never seen an actual castle can swallow that. Not me, I've seen several enormous castles. That pathetic little cottage isn't sufficient to be called a castle.

I ain't mad at the final girl being a blood thirsty revenge seeker on those that have turned her entire world upside down and used her as a pawn for their own means. One reviewer, 'Murderella's Addiction' is actually offended that Cinderella becomes a vigilante? And the use of a fictional character and story to be magically untangled and turned into a slasher is alright with me. I enjoyed the premise of this storyline and the kills and fight scenes. I wasn't too disappointed in the acting because it wasn't overall bad. I went into this thinking it was going to be a borderline B/C average watch. It was entertaining at best for a Saturday pick me up. No the settings weren't ideal to match real castles and or large estates, but this is a low budget film and it's purpose is to only bring to life a story from a twisted angle of a fairytale everyone knows. Too bad folks didn't enjoy it for pure entertaining fun.

Following her husband's death, a stepmother to his benevolent daughter lords over the incident as a means of keeping the girl in her employ and sets about trying to push her stepsisters into a ploy to win the Prince's heart forcing the distraught woman to resort to murder to right the wrongs.

Overall, this was a fairly fun and likable adaptation of the story. One of the finer aspects on display is the way that this one goes about getting the necessary setup in order so that the eventual rampage will feel earned and valuable. The initial setpiece focusing on the erroneous setup of the father and getting her left alone with the stepfamily gets this off to a great start while starting the series of setpieces focusing on the treatment that the family puts her through as it speed-runs through the familiar storyline. With the experience given just a brief bit of lip-service about the harsh orders, excessive workload, and violent outbursts against her for disobeying, there's enough about who she is that gives the experience a strong starting point heading into the fateful Ball. With the Ball serving to help introduce everything that happens afterward with her showing up in extravagant evening gown and slippers which was forbidden by the stepmother and sisters, and wooing the prince, that forces the impetus to continue the treatment against her, including even more cruel and barbaric activities such as whipping or psychological torments. Finally igniting and serving as the impetus to seek bloody revenge on everyone, there's a lot of fun to be had in the second half with the masked girl going around the house knocking off the family for their transgressions against her in brutal fashion, as the ambush sequences and brawling come across fairly well. With some great action and bloody kills on display, there's a lot to like here, although there are some big issues holding it back. One of the main drawbacks with this one is the need to speed run this one to get through the familiar story at a frantic clip. Hitting all the familiar notes from the story involving the stepmother taking control of the family, the cruel treatment of the main girl by the stepsisters and getting to the ball despite their strict instructions not to attend, this manages to tell a majority of the story in the first twenty minutes of the film rather than set the action at a more measured clip than anything else with the way this comes together being quite hard to buy into due to the rushed nature it goes through the main story. There's also the expected low-budget nature of this one which manages to include all manner of familiar and easy-to-spot features, from flimsy make-up, illogical props, obvious locations, and other such fare that highlight this one's cheap origins, and with the expected change in treatment of the characters from the familiar story might be what end up lowering this one overall.
