5Has Anyone Else Heard About the Sleeping Beauty Movie That’s Being Made?

Sleeping Beauty from Pollen Digital on Vimeo.

Emily Browning’s in it, starring as what I’m assuming to be the Sleeping Beauty role, but the fairytale has taken a different spin on its traditional storyline. Instead of pricking her finger on a cursed spindle and falling into ages of sleep, just to be awakened by some douchey prince that’s only got one thing on his mind, Emily’s character – who is a very, very high-end prostitute – more or less takes her hits while conked out on date rape drugs.

The movie? It sounds disturbing. Flat out disturbing. It’s got neat visuals, and the production design is immaculate, but the concept? It’s definitely one of those creepy movies that’s going to stay with you for probably ever.

Will you guys see this movie?
