A bloody Cinderella retelling from the other side of the mirror.

This week, we tackle The Ugly Stepsister, Emilie Blichfeldt’s satirical body-horror twist on the Grimm’s Cinderella, told through the eyes of stepsister Elvira. When her widowed mom marries into a wealthier family, tragedy strikes—and the family scrambles to clean up debts. Enter the grand ball, Prince Julian, and Elvira’s desperate bid to become the belle of the ball… at any cost. And by “any cost,” we mean painfully invasive nose jobs, eyelash-stitching procedures, toe amputations, and—yes—tapeworms. 🪱

There aren’t many tangents in this one, but grab your anti-nausea meds because things are about to get queasy! 🩸👠

This week, we’re diving into the deeply weird and wildly original world of Grafted, the Shudder original sci-fi body horror that had us both squirming and thinking.

Directed by Sasha Rainbow in her feature debut, Grafted follows a brilliant but socially isolated student who inherits her father’s controversial experiments… and let’s just say things get messy. Identity, obsession, grief, and stitched-up science collide in this surreal and emotional horror experience that left us with so many questions—and just as many chills.

Join us as we break down:
🧬 Grief-fueled science experiments gone too far
🩹 The emotional and literal unraveling of identity
💔 Found family, trauma, and the cost of obsession
🧠 That final act twist and what we think it really means

Whether you’re here for the intense visuals or the “WHAT DID I JUST WATCH?!” vibes—this ep’s for you.
