Jason and Rachel review The Ugly Stepsister, a Norwegian body horror take on Cinderella now streaming on Hulu. Told from the perspective of Elvira, the eldest stepsister, the movie turns the familiar fairy tale into a grotesque nightmare about beauty standards, class, desperation, and what women are forced to do to survive in a world built around male approval. We talk body horror, Brothers Grimm fairy tales, the tapeworm scene, eyelash sewing, foot mutilation, sound design, feminist horror, and why this worked for us way more than The Substance.

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports that a teen accused of killing his stepsister will remain free, for now.

We continue our series featuring international language films (#speakingintongues) with a fascinating film which inverts the traditional narrative of Cinderella and explores the story from the perspective of her "ugly stepsister". Far more than merely a clever inversion, THE UGLY STEPSISTER reveals itself to be surprisingly funny, sharply insightful, and fearlessly grotesque. It presents a critique of both perceptions of beauty and the pressures put upon women in a society that treats their desirability as a currency, necessary for survival.We're joined by returning friend of the show, Dr DeAnna Daniels and new friend of the show Dr Nicole Symmonds to unpack the myriad of ways this film challenges convention and pushes us to rethink our approach to our bodies and their monstrous beauty.Also featuring a Patron-only segment discussing DARK, Season 3, Episode 5 with returning friend Lindsey Dunn, this is a lively and thoughtful discussion that we really think you'll enjoy.5:09 - Happy Hour Horror Hangout Announcement (5/31 4 pm EST)7:22 - Two Questions with Dr Nicole SymmondsPatron Only Segment: DARK, Season 3, Episode 519:55 - THE UGLY STEPSISTERSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We talk about this Norwegian retelling of the Cinderella story with the addition of body horror!

In November 2025, 18-year-old Anna Kepner boarded a family cruise expecting sunshine, memories, and a relaxing vacation at sea. Instead, the trip ended in horror when Anna was found dead inside the room she shared with her stepbrother and younger half-brother while the ship sailed through international waters. Her father says he was the one who found her, pulling her body from underneath the bed before realizing his daughter was gone. Prosecutors now allege Anna was assaulted and intentionally killed, while the teenage family member accused of her murder reportedly claims he “can't remember” what happened that night. As shocking new details emerge from inside the cramped cabin and the family at the center of this tragedy speaks out, unpack the disturbing case that turned a dream vacation into a nightmare no one saw coming....If you're new here, don't forget to subscribe for weekly deep dives into the darkest true crime cases: http://youtube.com/@annieelise..

In which the Mister joins me in reviewing THE UGLY STEPSISTER (2025), from writer/director Emilie Blichfeldt.  In this macabre and dark reimagining of the Cinderella story, a young woman named Elvira (Lea Myren) becomes obsessed with winning the affection of a shallow prince to save her family from sudden poverty but more so because of her naivety in believing she loves him.  Encouraged by her ruthless, social-climbing mother, Rebekka (Ane Dahl Torp), Elvira undergoes a series of gruesome 18th-century cosmetic procedures and extreme physical transformations to compete with her naturally beautiful stepsister, Agnes (Thea Sofie Loch Næss).  As the royal ball approaches, Elvira's desperate quest for physical perfection descends into a nightmarish struggle, forcing her to confront the agonizing costs of societal beauty standards and her own sense of self.  The film clocks in at 1 h and 49 m, is unrated (but definitely an R) and is currently streaming on Hulu, AMC+ and to buy/rent on Prime Video.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.#TheUglyStepsister #EmilieBlichfeldt #LeaMyren #Elvira #AneDahlTorp #Rebekka #TheaSofieLochNæss #Agnes #FloFagerli #Alma #IsacCalmroth #PrinceJulian #AdamLundgren #DrEsthétique #CeciliaForss #SophieVonKronenberg #KatarzynaHerman #MadameVanja #Drama #Horror #DarkFantasy #Satire  @Hulu  @AMC+  @PrimeVideo #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library

Happy New Year girlies!! We are back and here to chat about the OSCAR-NOMINATED horror The Ugly Stepsister

In this absolutely unglued episode, your favorite movie goblins spiral into a double feature of romantic body horror nightmares, breaking down Together, directed by Michael Shanks, and The Ugly Stepsister, directed by Emilie Blichfeldt — two films that boldly ask the question:“What if love… but also screaming?”First up, we tackle Together, where relationships, intimacy, and human bodies all politely agree to stop following the rules of God, science, and decency. We yell about uncomfortable closeness, emotional dependency taken to Cronenberg levels, and how this movie feels like couples therapy if your therapist was a cursed swamp witch. Every conversation somehow becomes:“Would you survive this situation?” (No)“Is this romantic or a biohazard?” (Yes)“Why is the human body like this?” (Rude of it, honestly)Shanks clearly woke up one day and said, “Let's emotionally terrorize everyone who's ever been in a relationship,” and we respect the commitment to violence.Then we skip gleefully into the bloody fairy tale hellscape of The Ugly Stepsister, directed by Emilie Blichfeldt, a gorgeous, grotesque body-horror remix of Cinderella that proves beauty standards have always been a full-contact sport. We lose our collective minds over:Medieval cosmetic surgery nightmaresVomit trauma (so much vomit trauma)Beauty rituals that feel like OSHA violationsThe sheer audacity of adding in THAT MANY you-know-whatWe praise Blichfeldt for crafting a film that feels like it crawled out of a cursed storybook soaked in blood, jealousy, and bad vibes.Somewhere along the way the episode derails into:Screaming about practical effects like proud raccoonsDebating which movie would emotionally destroy us fasterQuestioning every weight loss method ever Arguing whether fairy tales were always body horror and we were just naïve little foolsDeclaring that love is beautiful, disgusting, and possibly hauntedThis episode is basically three horror nerds laughing hysterically while being spiritually attacked by intimate trauma cinema and cursed fairytale energy.CREEP-O-RAMA is: Store: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CREEP-O-RAMA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@creep-o-rama⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Josh: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@joshblevesque⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Artwork: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@bargainbinblasphemy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Theme: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@imfigure⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Audio: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@stranjlove

In this video episode, Sidney breaks down one of the gnarliest horror films of 2025, and a dark retelling of Cinderella, The Ugly Stepsister (2025).

"The Ugly Stepsister" is a 2025 satirical black comedy, body horror film written and directed by Emilie Blichfeldt in her directorial debut.

"That's the whole point. I'm going to marry the Prince."THE UGLY STEPSISTER is Emilie Blichfeldt's first feature, and it is unfathomable that a first-time feature filmmaker was given the space (and budget) to make such a biting, daring, and monstrous creative swing. The reason Cinderella is a fairy tale is that to be a woman so pure and beautiful that a rich prince takes you away from your terrible existence is a fantasy. The painful truth is that for the majority of us, we will never be Cinderella and have far more in common with "the ugly stepsister."This movie is extreme, so proceed with caution!!--------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTHelp Barbara Fight for Her Future After ICE Detention: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-barbara-fight-for-her-future-after-ice-detention--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/
