It’s always a sign of a good horror movie when it’s making audiences squirm and even vomit in their seats, and this year’s first horror movie to meet those high standards has already been unleashed upon the world. It’s titled The Ugly Stepsister, a body horror twist on the classic Cinderella fairytale that just premiered at the Sundance Film Festival last night.
According to a report from Variety, “It was also clear that Sundance still favors the bold and doesn’t shy away from screening films that may illicit strong reactions. During the premiere of the opening Sundance Midnight movie The Ugly Stepsister, a moviegoer leaned over into the aisle and vomited.”
The outlet further details the vomitous content, “Emilie Blichfeldt’s body horror film includes several difficult-to-watch scenes of crude cosmetic surgery, including its protagonist eating a tapeworm, sewing in eyelashes and enduring a barbaric rhinoplasty.”
