A bloody Cinderella retelling from the other side of the mirror.This week, we tackle The Ugly Stepsister, Emilie Blichfeldt's satirical body-horror twist on the Grimm's Cinderella, told through the eyes of stepsister Elvira. When her widowed mom marries into a wealthier family, tragedy strikes—and the family scrambles to clean up debts. Enter the grand ball, Prince Julian, and Elvira's desperate bid to become the belle of the ball… at any cost. And by “any cost,” we mean painfully invasive nose jobs, eyelash-stitching procedures, toe amputations, and—yes—tapeworms.
On this episode, I'm giving a small horror TED talk about The Ugly Stepsister, directed by Emilie Blichfeldt in her directorial debut. This gothic body horror film is bloody, uncomfortable, grotesque and filled with some really dark humor. Beauty is skin deep and then some with this one. Spoiler free and rant filled.

Feministischer Body-Horror ist spätestens seit "Titane" und "The Substance" ein ziemlicher Trend, ebenso sind feministische Neuinterpretationen von historisch-mythologischen Stoffen wie in "Poor Things" und "Nosferatu" omnipräsent und dass wir uns nicht nur in zahllosen Disney-Remakes immer wieder an alten Märchen abarbeiten ist eh klar. Aber erzeugen diese Neuinterpretationen auch neue Bilder, oder bleiben sie in alten Körper- und Unterdrückungsbildern hängen? Das diskutiert Arabella Wintermayr in der neuen Folge zusammen mit Samuel Bereuther und Dobrila Kontic anhand von "The Ugly Stepsister", der Aschenputtel aus Sicht der bösen Stiefschwester erzählt.
Você provavelmente já ouviu falar na história da Cinderela, de seu famoso sapatinho de cristal e seu final romântico ao lado do príncipe. Mas… e se as coisas não fossem exatamente do jeito que você pensava? E se a protagonista desta narrativa fosse uma das meias-irmãs? Esse é exatamente o ponto de partida de The Ugly Stepsister, filme de estreia da cineasta Emilie Blichfeldt que vem sendo louvado como o sucessor espiritual de A Substância. Hoje nossa bancada viaja até a Noruega para conversar sobre esse lançamento de horror corporal que não apenas subverte um conto de fadas para lá de famoso como também aborda questões extremamente atuais, como a perigosa busca por perfeição e por padrões de beleza impossíveis de serem alcançados. Entre cirurgias plásticas arriscadas, bailes pomposos e um príncipe que mais parece um sapo, venha conosco enquanto analisamos um dos melhores filmes de 2025. Pegue seu sapatinho de cristal, prepare seu vestido e responda a pergunta que ninguém nunca ousou fazer antes: já pensou o quão difícil é ser irmã da Cinderela?O RdMCast é produzido e apresentado por: Gabi Larocca, Thiago Natário e Gabriel Braga.Apoie o RdM e receba recompensas exclusivas: https://apoia.se/rdmCITADOS NO PROGRAMA:The Ugly Stepsister (2025)Citações off topic:Crash: Estranhos Prazeres (1996)Grave (2016)A Maldição de Cinderela (2024)Emma.

Diese moderne Neuinterpretation (nur!) für Erwachsene erinnert uns endlich auch mal wieder daran, dass Märchen wie Aschenputtel nur bei Walt Disney und in unserer naiven Vorstellungskraft “schön” beziehungsweise magisch “märchenhaft” zu verstehen sind. The Ugly Stepsister verändert als Body-Horrorfilm weniger als man meint, um zu einem brutal anderen, desillusionierend feministischen Ergebnis zu kommen.

This week we review the dark and twisted retelling of the Cinderella fairy tale in The Ugly Stepsister. Synopsis As the name suggests, The Ugly Stepsister is a retelling of the Cinderella story from the ugly stepsister's perspective. In this gritty realistic telling, it starts out with the marriage of Cinderella's father and the revelation that both sides of the marriage are expecting great wealth from each other, but are actually poor. The step mother's daughter Elvira dreams of marrying the Prince and is given a chance by being invited to his Ball. Her mother, knowing that a advantageous marriage is their only way out of poverty, plans on using her last money and her cunning to transform Elvira into a beauty. What follows is a series of visceral 19th century plastic surgeries, self inflicted illness, and a series of insults that turn Elvira into a pitiable and sympathetic protagonist. Review of The Ugly Stepsister The Ugly Stepsister is clever and a more complex retelling of the fairy tale that we all know and love. It's a more realistic exploration of the power dynamics of money, privilege, and beauty. It tells two sides of the same fairytale, the original is really about overcoming poverty and class through natural beauty and magical helpers, this telling is about how despite class and access to money, you still need to overcome beauty standards. None of the characters are particularly “good”, including Cinderella. Each has their own motivations, and Elvira is essentially a pawn in her mother's game. Max is going to argue that this isn't a horror movie, but it undeniably is. This movie at its core is a body horror movie. It explores the brutal reshaping of Elvira's body through mechanical and organic means. She will stop at nothing and sacrifice everything for her goal. I thought it was really well done. It was clever, brutal, and at times even funny. It's very similar in themes, but much more subtle than The Substance. Score 9/10

This week Brian and Steve watch an early contender for best horror of 2025 in a twisted retelling of Cinderella from Norway. Also from Poland. And somehow Romania. The Ugly Stepsister reframes the classic tale from the point of view of the villain, much like Wicked. But instead of Ariana Grande, this film is full of blood, maggots, vomit and cum. Honestly, I haven't seen Wicked so I can't say those things aren't in it. Tune in as we talk about a movie more grim than the Brothers Grimm. Plus we announce our July Showdown topic.

Do you ever stop to think about what your clothes are saying before you even speak? We've all heard that first impressions matter—but have you ever wondered if your outfit might be the silent ambassador standing between you and that elusive promotion? In this episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Gayla Bentley, a fashion icon whose work has graced People Magazine, Oprah Magazine, and even Shark Tank. Gayla shares how personal style isn't just about looking good—it's a transformative tool for confidence, clarity, and productivity. From her early struggles as a "chubby tomboy" to becoming a sought-after stylist for Fortune 500 executives, Gayla reveals how mastering your wardrobe can save time, reduce stress, and elevate your professional and personal life. Gerald and Gayla dive into practical tips for building a functional wardrobe, the psychology of first impressions, and how to thrive in remote work settings. Whether you're a CEO or a college grad on a budget, Gayla's insights will help you unlock the power of style to achieve your goals.

So weiblich war Kino+ noch nie! Mit Nadja aka Nerdzika begrüßen wir nicht nur einen brandneuen Gast in der Sendung, sondern haben damit erstmals auch einen massiven Frauenüberschuss! Neben Schröck sind heute Antje und Anne dabei, um nach einem Abstecher ins Female Action Kino ausführlich über den neuen JOHN WICK-Film BALLERINA zu sprechen. Und es bleibt weiblich! Im Body-Horror-Kostümfilm THE UGLY STEPSISTER geht es um Schönheitsideale, die nach THE SUBSTANCE nicht drastischer veranschaulicht werden könnten. Und das in einem Regiedebüt! Wer keine Lust auf eine körperliche Grenzerfahrung hat - und ihn damals nicht im Kino sehen konnte - hat außerdem die Möglichkeit, Dominik Grafs DIE KATZE in der Wiederaufführung im Kino zu schauen. Ein eindringlicher Thriller aus Deutschland - bis heute leider eher eine Seltenheit. Im Streaming findet ihr derweil den neuen PREDATOR-Film KILLER OF KILLERS, mit K.O. einen weiteren Eintrag ins französische Streaming-Action-Universum und ein paar schöne Nostalgie-Perlen wie die TIM UND STRUPPI-Serie. In diesem Sinne: Viel Spaß bei der heutigen Kino+-Folge - und nehmt euch vor den Penissen in Acht! Rocket Beans wird unterstützt von fritz-kola. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ironically, upwards of 65% of the population face challenges to clothe their bodies.Why does the fashion industry ignore such a huge target market? It confounds her, but it is not the primary influence on fashion.She exclaims “style” is the distinguishing characteristic. It is not about size. It is about Style”. Style is the difference between ‘fine' and fabulous. Why the fashion industry ignores the majority in favor of a tiny minority makes no sense, but Style makes all the difference!“Style” is THE distinction” it is not about size it is about style,” she says.“Style” is the difference between just putting on clothes and ‘dressing,' the dash of spice or color, the well-chosen accessory or textural combination that makes the difference between fine and fabulous.” Clothing that fits, flatters, and enhances can be a most significant contribution to one's self-esteem and confidence.Helping others develop their own personal style is a path she began at an early age and has pursued her entire career.

Think you've seen every possible version of the Cinderella story? Think again.

But whereas Coralie Fargeat's film leans into the grotesque, you may just find that The Ugly Stepsister is a surprisingly gentle take on unachievable body standards.
