Cadaverella
Cinder knew her life was over when her father came home from a business trip with a new wife and her 2 daughters when she was only 6. When her father dies soon afterwards, she pretty much has to care for herself, as her stepmother whittles away her father's money and possessions. Cinder bides her time by hanging with her best friend Justin, working at the library with the unbearable Lenore, and crushing on Cash, the psycho who tends the lawn, until her 21st birthday, when she inherits the trust fund her father left for her. When she makes off with Justin's clay doll of the voodoo god Baron Samedi, the god visits her to help "make things happen" for her--including landing a night with Cash. Little did she know, however, that Cash was in cahoots with her step-mom to do away with her so they could get her trust fund money. Little did Cash and Step-mom know, that Baron Samedi was going to help Cinder get her revenge.

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Sadly Over-hyped
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
As I am typing this, this movie currently holds an IMDb rating of 3.4, which I think is rather harsh.While suffering from a rather boring start, I found this one to be dark, endearing and even funny at times, factors which are helped by good acting performances. There is one plot hole another reviewer mentioned about the twins staying the same age after several years, but this is partially explained in the end. As an added bonus, there is some great unexpected gore near the end. As long as you don't mind low budget, I would recommend at least giving this one a chance.7.5/10
Most people are REALLY exaggerating about this movie. Sure, it's low-budget and the special effects are laughable, but it's actually a rather good movie. Watchable, at the VERY least.Cinder is probably the least-likable Cinderella character ever. They really picked the wrong character for that role. Her poor coworker would have fit the bill much better. The kills are mediocre, there's a lot of boring filler, and the voiceovers are terribly unbelievable. Most of the characters are more like caricatures, extreme stereotypes and I guess are supposed to be ironic and funny, but come off as uninspired.Still, worth watching, especially if you like horror versions of fairy tales, or like laughing at bad effects with your friends.
There's a certain whimsical element to the first half hour. Credit is due for the setting and the conceptual basis for the story, and the narration in the opening is reminiscent of Dead Like Me.However the movie quickly fades into a drama class level of acting that keeps it from being entertaining. Frequent changes in the quality of the filming almost suggest that it was done with several different types/styles of cameras, but to achieve a stylistic effect. Rather it distracts from the scenes, which are not strong enough to survive on their own, let alone with distractions.If you are a die hard fan of any kind of independent films, you might want to give it a whirl, but I otherwise do yourself the favor of steering clear.
This low-budget feature updates Cinderella for a modern day (and bloodthirsty) audience. Certainly not for all tastes, this dark and twisted fairy tale presents Cinderella as a young librarian awaiting her twenty-first birthday in order to gain access to her trust fund and thus escape her evil stepmother. Unfortunately things go wildly wrong and she ends up seeking bloody revenge from beyond the grave.Although the low-budget shows at times the acting is topnotch and the film is stylishly presented and overcomes its flaws with its enthusiasm. Be sure and watch through the end credits to get the whole Cadaverella experience. Solid low-budget entertainment that is worth seeking out.
