It's seriously a TERRIBLE + HORRIBLE movie!
The plot is taken from the fairytale, added with a blender of revenge, violence, and bloody scenes.
The pace is slow in the first half, and it goes fast in the second.
It's another meaningless kind of "Winnie the Pooh" movie, filled with violent scenes, killing like nobody's business!! I wonder why out of nowhere, there came so many script writers who tried so hard to make nice cartoon characters into horrible ones?! Running out of ideas for better horror movies?
Can you imagine how Cinderella kills? Using her "Glass high-heel", which is NOT SHARP at all, yet kill like a sharp knife + stab like a hammer (especially on one's head and chest)! Come on, give me a break!
The entire movie shows a bunch of CRAZY LADIES shouting, killing, fighting, torturing, screaming, and slaughtering with "satisfaction"... from the beginning to the end!
The killing scenes and visual effects are so off and low-budget..!! None of them look good or impressive! It's very much like a movie production by a newbie director or a Grade C or D movie's director. Gosh.. it's an INSULT to my eyes!!!!
Also, the power of Cinderella is so inconsistent and weird! She can easily 'bomb' a wooden carriage with her "Iron-Man" palm!! My eyes roll to the space!! Please... Stop fooling my brain!!!
It's a very empty movie, just being violent for the sake of violence!

Cheap Carrie Ripoff
This was nothing but a low rent Carrie remake with a hint of the Cinderella fairy tale thrown in. There really isn't anything good I can say about this. I only gave it a two because it killed an hour on a Saturday night. Not bad if you want to make a drinking game out of finding all the continuity errors.
Every one of the characters and the actors were annoying. The "effects," what there were of them, couldn't have been worse if they were hand drawn and animated by a three year old with a crayon. The flashbacks were annoying and made no sense whatsoever. The opening sequence had zero bearing on the rest of the movie at all.
Oh good.... Minimum character limit met. Thank God, because I could not talk about this trainwreck any longer.

Cinderella on a ridiculous killing spree - avoid!
Apparently the makers of this production meant to come up with an original and (very!) unconventional approach to the well-known Cinderella fairytale: turning it into a supernatural slasher-/horror story. Now these old fairytales originally weren't as sweet and Disney'ish as the 20th century has re-invented them, but here they really went totally overboard: this version is nothing but one big blood-soaked gore-pandemonium! It's a Cinderella drowning in a hotchpotch of Hellraiser, Wishmaster and Evil Dead, all in one.
Even in the introductory scenes the violence of the terrifying stepmother and her evil daughters is of Saw-like proportions. But when, after the pivotal ball at the palace, Cinderella shifts into her revenge-mode, all fuses are blown and a hysterical killing-spree starts among all the guests, turning the party into a chaotic frenzy of screaming victims who are stabbed, amputated, torn to shreds and devoured one by one by Cinderella-turned-demon and her Cenobite-like helpers, amidst never ceasing fountains of blood. The VFX- and make-up people probably have had a real ball, but at home I watched in disbelief.
Okay, the acting was reasonable, Kelly Rian Sanson is pretty, Danielle Scott makes a fearsome stepmother, and sleek prince Sam Barrett was at least allowed to show some impressive skin. But that was all. Maybe, just maybe, it could have worked, when they had made it into some kind of comedy, but alas, not one laugh to lighten up the day. What remained is the overblown result of a writer's crazy fantasy, executed on steroids. It's not even camp, just bad. Avoid!

Absolutely terrible
The scariest thing was the botox filled lips and faces of the actresses.
Was it set in modern times because you could see electric light switches on all the walls plus plug sockets in the skirting boards and in one scene there was a home security keypad on the wall next to a white wall mounted telephone.
Some rooms were candlelit while others had electric table lamps.
The whole thing was just a messy shambles that made no sense whatsoever.
But I have to reiterate, were the faces of the leading ladies their own or did they deliberately have loads of lip fillers etc before filming to make them look so hideous?

Honestly so bad...
The movie is so bad, the make up looks great but other then that... the special effects are terrible for a movie from 2024.. the acting is not convincing enough and overall it's just way to much blood. I was hoping for suspense but I cringed more.
I really wished this was a better movie but I guess you're better off finding another horror if that's what ur into! Cinderellas curse is nothing I wished it would be. It's all over the place and the storyline is very weak! I hate bashing on a movie so much cause I'm sure they all worked hard to make it but it just didn't pay off whatsoever! But again props to the make up team!

Couldn't rate it lower
Absolute waste of time.
Terrible storyline, terrible casting, poor production, poor acting. Cinderella should be young and the actress hired is aging poorly.
No plot spoilers here because theres nothing I can say that would spoil it as there's no story to tell.
The movie is as good as a poorly rehearsed school production. Unnecessarily gory. Not remotely scary. Feels like a rubbish comedy. I actually can't believe this was released in cinemas and then more so that I paid to waste my time.
I should have read the reviews here because the majority are pretty accurate in regards to how terrible this movie actually is.

Worst movie ever, very dark and so bloody
I stopped watching this movie just after 25 or 30 min. Such a terrible movie.
This movie describes that living human beings are more evil than ghost. How bad those two evil sister harm their servant.
I stopped movie after that scene. Such a awful and terrible baddest of bad & worst movie ever.
Whoever is the writer and director, you guys have no mind and feelings. Of you can't think anything good then atleast do not promote evil behavior and personality.
Conjuring & the nun is way better than this. Government should banned movies like Cinderella's curse and other. They should suspend this movie immediately. 🚫

Stupid
A few people are complaining about the blood and gore in the movie, but honestly, I do not mind that. I love blood and gore. My problem was that they stitched Hellraiser, Carrie, and Cinderella all in a big mess of a movie. The special effects were bad, but I have seen much worse, and the script was cheesy and very cliché. It's not even a good bad movie like Hob Goblins or any kind of Neal Breen movie, it's just bad bad. I am sure the creator of this movie had great intentions and I think a horror/fairy tale is awesome, but this was not it at all, it could have been better, it had the potential to be great.

A chilling take on a fairytale classic
Really enjoyed watching this. Cinderella summons her fairy godmother from an ancient flesh-bound book, seeking revenge on her evil stepmother and stepsisters who abuse and torment her daily... & boy does she take revenge... In a Carrie style bloodbath!!!
The kills are varied & bloody, the effects, cgi & prosthetics are really good, and the characters are nasty, backstabbing & fun.
The cast are all excellent, particularly Kelly Rian Sanson who plays the lead. She really is the star of the show here... what a screamer!
There's a brilliant toe cutting scene (no spoiler, it's in the trailer) that really made me cringe.
Great movie. Def worth a watch. 👍

This is far darker and gritty than 1950's Cinderella
Cinderella's Curse is a bold reimagining of the classic fairy tale, taking a darker and more twisted approach than Disney's 1950 version. Directed by Louisa Warren, this film dives into the horror genre, offering a fresh yet chilling perspective on the beloved story.
The plot follows Cinderella, played by Kelly Rian Sanson, who discovers an ancient book that summons a vengeful fairy godmother. This twist transforms the tale from a simple rags-to-riches story into a gripping narrative of revenge and dark magic. The film's atmosphere is eerie and intense, with stunning visuals that bring the sinister elements to life. While the movie excels in creating a haunting ambiance and delivering unexpected plot twists, it falls short in character development and pacing. Some scenes feel rushed because it is a 78 minute runtime so that js probably why, and the characters, especially the evil (karen) stepmother and stepsisters, lack depth
However, the performances, particularly by Chrissie Wunna as the fairy godmother, are commendable and add a layer of intrigue to the film. Cinderella's Curse is a decent watch for those who enjoy horror and fantasy genres. It may not reach the timeless charm of Disney's 1950 classic, but it certainly offers a unique and thrilling experience that stands out in its own right. If you're in the mood for a dark twist on a familiar story, this film is worth a watch.

Holy crap.
I wasn't prepared for that! I expected gritty, but this was beyond! It's a wonderful horror take on Cinderella. The practical effects were a little wonky. The writing was a little messy. The CGI was decent. The acting was really good. The cinematography was on point. The music was perfect. It was a top notch B movie horror. Almost an A. I loved it! It seemed like this movie ended up being better quality than it ought to have been. I loved the original take on a story that's been done to death. Very gratifying. Very fun. I recommend it. I hope to see more fairy tales gone insane like this one!!
