Hansel & Gretel2013
“A Classic Tale... Horrifyingly Real”
Directed by Anthony C. Ferrante
The premise
In this modern retelling of the classic horror tale, teen siblings are enslaved by a psychotic recluse within her gruesome house of horrors in the woods.
Horror Vault's take
A fresh and brutal spin on the beloved fairy tale transplants Hansel and Gretel into modern-day terror, where two teenage siblings find themselves at the mercy of a deeply unhinged woman lurking in the woods. Her home is far from the candy-coated fantasy of storybooks — it's a chamber of horrors with a very literal appetite for victims. Dee Wallace brings menace to the screen as the predatory recluse, delivering a performance that leans hard into psychological unease and visceral dread. Fans of fairy tale horror reimaginings will find plenty to chew on here.
