The Death of Snow White Ratings & Reviews
- adam3199July 21, 2025This looks like the really bad high school end of year play was filmed and released as a movie. Just unwatchable. It is movies like this that make you realise how much forgettable dross gets proiduced every year
- Jacob O’NealJuly 16, 2025The director/co-writer, Jason Brooks, made some Friday The 13th fan films called Vengeance I & II. They were much better made than I expected when I watched the return of Tommy Jarvis played by Thom Mathews. So when I saw he was making a Snow White film I was rightfully curious. I wouldn’t call it gothic horror, but it’s close and I always enjoyed that type of horror movie. The result was better than expected. It’s not a classic, but it reminded me a lot of the Charles Band movie from the era when he owned a castle in Italy and made stuff like The Pit & The Pendulum or Castle Freak. Brooks had a budget that was barely over $1 million and built a makeshift castle, was able to costume everyone and had some decent gore effects to boot. The story is obviously familiar. It started out with the witch killing people within the castle when she finally reaches Snow White’s mother, the queen, who is pregnant. The witch tries to kill her and the unborn heroine. A choice must be made by the king to save his wife or child. The wife insists that her baby survive. The witch then fights a jacked dwarf with a six pack after he tears off his shirt. Without knowing I needed that, I loved that moment, especially the unexpected moment of using a broken bone the dwarf had penetrating from his arm to stab the witch in the abdomen. Some of the make up and costuming was pretty bad, especially the witch. She looked like someone from Kids In The Hall or Monty Python in drag, but it’s a minor complaint. This movie is not good. I know that. But it was charming and fun. It felt like Brooks really enjoys his craft and it shows in the final product. Beyond looking like some classic Charles Band movie, it felt like one too. That’s really what made me enjoy it. It reminded me of the time when Band made movies longer than 60 minutes with more inspiration than making sequels to Evil Bong and Gingerdead Man. If you like the old days of Full Moon Entertainment, the days of Trancers, Subspecies and Castle Freak then you might enjoy what Jason Brooks did with this classic fairy tale.
