Info

Cinder knew her life was over when her father came home from a business trip with a new wife and her 2 daughters when she was only 6. When her father dies soon afterwards, she pretty much has to care for herself, as her stepmother whittles away her father's money and possessions. Cinder bides her time by hanging with her best friend Justin, working at the library with the unbearable Lenore, and crushing on Cash, the psycho who tends the lawn, until her 21st birthday, when she inherits the trust fund her father left for her. When she makes off with Justin's clay doll of the voodoo god Baron Samedi, the god visits her to help "make things happen" for her--including landing a night with Cash. Little did she know, however, that Cash was in cahoots with her step-mom to do away with her so they could get her trust fund money. Little did Cash and Step-mom know, that Baron Samedi was going to help Cinder get her revenge.

Cadaverella Audience Reviews

Alicia I love this movie so much
TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
hbeeinc After an overly broad opening that tries too hard to be cute/clever, Cadaverella settles down into a very nice little movie. It's uneven in spots but worth sticking it out. I'm shocked that Megan Goddard hasn't done anything else since she anchored this movie magnificently. It's not to much to say that her character and the great writing kept me watching. I'm glad I did. From Leonard Cohen to chicken feet, the lines pop out of left field making me bark with laughter. For a micro-budget, I loved the soundtrack. It didn't have the "my buddy's cousin has a BITCHIN' band, dude" quality of screeching guitars, bad synthesizers and pretentious lyrics. Keiran Hunter, playing split roles, delineated the two characters well enough that I didn't catch until almost the end of the movie. Ryan Seymour, also playing split roles, was dull in both. There's a real humanity in the script and genuine feeling in Goddard's performance. I'm on a micro-budget kick right now and this ranks in the top 5 of what I've watched. Don't get thrown off by the opening. Just enjoy it.
TheRetardedVacuum As I am typing this, this movie currently holds an IMDb rating of 3.4, which I think is rather harsh.While suffering from a rather boring start, I found this one to be dark, endearing and even funny at times, factors which are helped by good acting performances. There is one plot hole another reviewer mentioned about the twins staying the same age after several years, but this is partially explained in the end. As an added bonus, there is some great unexpected gore near the end. As long as you don't mind low budget, I would recommend at least giving this one a chance.7.5/10
terrible2 I was quite surprised with the outcome of "Cadaverella", as I was certain that it would suck...Strong writing by Timothy and Jennifer Friend, and directing by Timothy, makes "Cadaverella" an entertaining slice of fairytale pie. The comedic tone is set early by a foul-mouthed narration, but it is the acting that truly sets this film apart from thousands of other low budget Indies. The film's star: Megan Goddard is simply wonderful as the ill-fated Cinder, who's perfect world is plagued by tragedy and misfortune. Kieran Hunter has a strong turn as the (wicked) stepmother and the rest of the cast seem to understand what their character's purpose is supposed to be. Although I was not real fond of the fact that many of the actors played multiple parts, I was able to overlook this because they did them well... Over-all mood and cinematography of the film looks fantastic, and the viewer happily follows "Cinder" through her pathetic set of circumstances. The down side of the film would be it's musical score, which mixes some sort of jazz with rock drums and finger-snaps. It never quite fits what is happening on screen, and I found this disrupting. Another would be a few unnecessary scenes that just didn't need to be there and felt more like filler, perhaps because of the film's short running time. However, these unfortunate mishaps do not make this well crafted, sensationally acted film anything less then great entertainment for your indie buck.
v_stojcevski Wow...OK. So, after reading the little feud on here, I decided I had to see this movie for myself. This movie is HORRIBLE. I stopped watching it. I strongly recommend cleaning a closet instead of watching this movie, you'll be more spooked/entertained.It's low budget with bad acting.Whoever is giving this movie 10s is completely incorrect and should be disregarded.I am in no way connected to any of the other reviewers.Simply put, this movie is not worth watching.Very, very BAD MOVIE.
