Review of Into the Woods

A mash-up of several fairy tales, linked by a frame-tale of a childless couple cursed by a witch - the others were classics like Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk and Cinderella, but I didn't recognise this one.

Anyway, nicely done, with pleasant special effects and decent acting. Surprisingly dark, with some deaths and disfigurement - especially in the Cinderella, which is also more than a little erotically charged.
