Did anyone ever read the original Grimm Brothers fairy tales? They were pretty scary before they got modified to be kid-friendly. There was one about a chicken that ended like "...the chicken died. And the people died, and the forest died, and everything was dead. The end." WhatintheWORLD?

yea, i have heard that, and alot of the happy disney stories originally werent so happy. the only one i remember off hand is the original cinderella story. the step sister's cut off parts of their feet to try to fit it in teh slipper, it was just pretty gory.

ever see that made for t.v. movie the 10th kingdom?? its a retelling of all the stories in a land where they are all true. and when they get thrown in prison there are the grimm brothers signatures scratched into the wall.

its so amazing!! the whole opening scene is how nyc breaks apart and turns into a fairy world. like walls move out to form a castle, grass starts growing. special effects are amazing. but i don 't know if you'd have the time to watch it. its 8 hours long. i only saw it cuz it was the made for tv movie and it was 4 nights of 2 hours each and i was sooo hooked. but to sit down for one sitting???? its great but you'd ahve to space it.
