01/22/2013 Not completely terrible. Great costumes (namely on the two women) and people are actually trying to act. Good effort, but not nearly sexy enough. I can't believe Sony released this either. As an indie film, it's decent. See more 11/21/2012 Fractured fairy tale featuring a beast, a troll, and a witch. Estella Warren is eyecatching and one of the better models-turned-actresses, and the dramatic arc she shares with the Beast has its moments. Jane March is campy in a good way as the wicked witch, and old man Otto the sheriff is terrible in a mockable way. His first scene he looks like he's having either a heart attack or severe indigestion, has to be removed to his home, and then later has no after-effects. What was up with that then, some form of demented method acting?? Or was he really having a heart attack and they couldn't afford a reshoot? They throw in numerous bloody decapitations as a means of compensating for the several slow stretches. The CGI effects range from acceptable (the troll) to unintentionally funny (the Beast dodging the witch's lightning bolts.) As far as low-budget fantasy goes, at least they got what they paid for.

I would rather eat back my own vomit then to sit through the rest of the movie, with my eyes closed. See more 09/25/2011 a grate film but do note when looking for it that it is now also knowen as "BEAUTY and the BEAST a Dark Tale. but is still very much the old story as we know it and have loved just will a new feel See more don s @RT97868663 07/02/2011 This is passable "B" movie fare. It is pretty much a retelling of the Beauty and the Beast story, with not much imagination. The acting is mediocre, the effects are not special. Still, for a fantasy movie without a big budget or "name" actors, it was entertaining enough to hold my interest. (On a side note, when "Beauty's" friend is much more attractive than "Beauty," you have to wonder who did the casting for this movie...) See more Read all reviews
