Fairy tales are always being "raped", and our childhood memories are continuously being destroyed! Here's a rundown of those horror films adapted from fairy tales.
Childhood is always being destroyed!
I don't know if it's because horror movie scripts are in too short supply or if horror movie screenwriters are too eager to be original, wanting to startle when they do make a sound.
