Say his name say his name… Rumpelstiltskin is back in a wickedly entertaining new update on the terrifying fairy tale from acclaimed writer-director Andy Edwards (Punch, Graphic Desires). His ambitious new fantasy horror feature had its World Premiere at FrightFest Glasgow on 8th March 2025, and now is being followed up with its home release on 7th April 2025 thanks to Miracle Media.
The film breathes new life into the age-old children’s story, with eye-popping, gnarly special effects and a potty mouthed female protagonist who isn’t your typical damsel in distress. With bawdy humour and devilishly delightful visuals, this new incarnation certainly packs a punch and is sure to permeate your dreams with nightmare fuel.
Once upon a time a greedy miller (Mark Cook) promises to marry off his beautiful daughter Evaline (Hannah Baxter-Eve) to the King (Colin Malone). But things don’t quite go to plan when his lies are uncovered and the pair are about to be locked up in a tower forever.
So, they make a bold promise to the King, that Evalina will spin straw into gold using a spinning wheel… but that’s easier said than done and they realise that they’ve made a promise they can’t keep. That is until a mischievous masked creature (Joss Carter) appears from nowhere with the offer of help. But help comes with a cost…
When the woman fulfills the task, the King becomes seduced by greed and wants more gold, so in an act of desperation she pleads with the fiendish imp and they make a deal… her firstborn child for more gold.
But everyone ends up getting more than they bargained for when the Devil gets involved and all hell breaks loose.
Who said spinning straw into gold wouldn’t come without a few problems?
