Sigourney Weaver 90s Horror Movie SNOW WHITE: A TALE OF TERROR Coming to Blu-ray
Mill Creek Entertainment will unleash Michael Cohn’s Snow White: A Tale of Terror (also known as Snow White in the Black Forest) with Sigourney Weaver, Sam Neill, and Monica Keena on Blu-ray on September 15th.
Here’s the trailer.
Here’s a rundown via Amazon: “From its dark and complex themes to its archetypal imagery, the Grimm fable of the innocent and beautiful Snow White has captured readers for centuries, but it has not often been given accurate treatment on film. It attempts to do this with magnificent performances, stunning Gothic scenery and costumes, and a well-crafted script that brings out the nuances in the original story. Seven years after a tragic accident has killed his wife just as she is giving birth, Frederick Hoffman (Sam Neill)–who alone cares for their daughter Lilli (Taryn Davis as the younger and Monica Keena as the older)–remarries Lady Claudia (Sigourney Weaver). Claudia arrives at his estate, bringing with her a creepy, intricately carved mirror. She has also brought along her mute brother (Miroslav Taborsky). It is not long before this eager stepmother and the wary daughter are locked in an endless cycle of jealously and hurt feelings. Reading into the deeper, psychological implications of this complex family situation, and the story’s many symbolic elements (the poison apple, the outcast hermitlike woodsmen), the film is both visually graphic and emotionally subtle. Not for children, this SNOW WHITE is for thinking adults who enjoy more than one good scare.”
The original music score was composed by John Ottman.
