From the IMDB: "Cinder has troubles. She has a wicked step-stripper for a mom. Her prince charming is a complete psycho. Her fairy godmother is actually a voodoo god. And worst of all she's been murdered. But Cinder doesn't intend to let a little thing like being dead stop her. She has places to go and people to kill. And she only has until midnight."
This is another one on Zone Horror which was only made earlier this year and doesn't seem to have a DVD release in the UK. This fact surprised me even more when I heard the word "bollocks" a couple of times in the dialogue. You don't often get that in an American film so it looks like our little ways are catching on.
"Cadaverella" is total sexploitation and is part of the "Grindhouse 2000" season. Don't expect it to be the greatest film you've ever seen (because it isn't) but as a very vulgar comedy-horror version of the Cinderella story it quite amused me. The narration was perhaps the funniest part but Megan Goddard is quite impressive as the lead and has a cracking little body.
Big Atom Productions claim that this will be released on DVD on May 8th this year (probably only in the US) but you can watch it on Zone Horror for free so why bother waiting?
I'll give it 4 out of 10 for being as sick and bloody as the real Grimm fairytale of Ashenputtel. I can't really give it any more as it is only just over an hour long and some of the editing could have been better. I don't think any of the people involved have been in anything else so, as a low-budget debut, it wasn't too bad at all really.
