A dark new twist on a Brothers Grimm tale you thought you knew, The Curse of Sleeping Beauty (review here) gives the classic fairy tale a seriously scary makeover timed perfectly for Halloween. To celebrate its UK DVD release, we have a copy to give away.

Classic fairy tales often have dark themes that seem perfect for a horror movie adaptation. But for some reason they often miss the mark. When I first saw some of the images for The Curse of Sleeping Beauty I assumed that it was going to be a film that targets teenage girls as it’s main audience. Well it’s not that, but it is kind of a mess.
Directed by Perry Reginald Teo, The Curse of Sleeping Beauty follows Thomas Kaiser (Ethan Peck), a secluded artist who is haunted by the recurring dream of a sleeping woman. He learns that he has inherited a mansion, Kaiser Gardens, from his distant uncle. Thomas leaves the city after reading an unusually foreboding letter from his deceased uncle telling him that Kaiser Gardens has been in the family for centuries and that their bloodline serves as the protectors of the property.

If there’s one director whose films I will watch without hesitation or question, it’s Pearry Teo. In fact his filmic career is actually one that is key to mine. His second film, the 2009 fear flick Necromentia (which I still think out-Hellraiser’d Hellraiser itself), was one of the first films I ever reviewed professionally; and I’ve reviewed each and every one of his films since. Why? Because of the impact his twisted vision in Necromentia had on me and because no matter the story, no matter the budget, Teo always finds something interesting, admittedly often dark, to do with the subject matter.
