Full Moon Features Readies Blu-ray Edition Of Director Michael Pataki's Cinderella For Delivery On May 10

Full Moon Features, with sales and distribution support provided by MVD Entertainment Group, has landed on May 10 as the street for a newly-minted Blu-ray edition of director Michael Pataki’s 1977 take on Charles Perrault’s classic fairy tale, Cinderella.

This cult gem checks a lot of boxes.  Classic fairy tale, check.  Musical version, with original songs, check.  Starring the gifted Rainbeaux Smith (Caged Heat, The Swinging Cheerleaders, Lemora, Farewell, My Lovely, The Pom Pom Girls, etc.), check.   Clearly, this presentation of Cinderella has the important boxes checked, except one … not for kids, no, no, no, this is an adult take on the classic fairy tale.  

Instead of a glass slipper, the Prince (played by glam rock recording artist Brett Smiley) is in search of another “perfect fit,” and we will let it go at that.  

Also counted among the cast member are Sy Richardson as Cinderella’s “Fairy Godmother” (as Lite in Repo Man … and several other Alex Cox films, plus Colors, They Live, etc.), Yana Nirvana (Brewster’s Millions, He’s My Girl) and Marilyn Corwin (professional dancer and choreographer in her film debut) as Cinderella’s all-too-eager stepsisters and Jennifer Stace (also a dancer and choreographer in her only film role) as Cinderella’s wicked stepmother.
