The Curse of Sleeping Beauty (2016) is a dark fantasy horror directed by Pearry Reginald Teo, offering a chilling and modern twist on the classic fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty. Blending gothic horror and supernatural mystery, the film creates an eerie atmosphere as it reimagines the legendary story with a more sinister tone.
The film follows Thomas Kaiser (Ethan Peck), an unsuspecting man who inherits a sprawling mansion that's been in his family for generations. Along with the mansion, Thomas discovers that he's also inherited an ancient curse tied to the legend of Briar Rose (India Eisley), the Sleeping Beauty who has been trapped in an eternal slumber for centuries. As Thomas begins to have unsettling dreams about Briar Rose, he becomes embroiled in a dark and dangerous journey to uncover the truth behind the curse and the horrifying consequences of waking her.
Thomas teams up with a paranormal investigator and a local real estate agent to explore the mansion's shadowy past. As they delve deeper into its secrets, they encounter a series of supernatural threats—demonic entities and malevolent forces that guard Briar Rose and the curse that binds her. The film's haunted-house setting enhances its gothic visuals, building suspense and dread as Thomas inches closer to discovering the true nature of the evil that lurks within.
The Curse of Sleeping Beauty is notable for its dark atmosphere, creepy visuals, and an engaging, if unconventional, approach to the Sleeping Beauty myth. While it received mixed reviews—praised for its creativity but criticized for pacing and effects—the film offers a haunting experience for fans of fantasy-horror looking for a darker spin on familiar folklore.
