One Fairytale Goes Under A Frightening Transformation For ‘Mermaid’s Song’ (Trailer)

 
Before Disney got their hands on classic tales like The Little Mermaid, Cinderella, and many others, they were dark gruesome legends handed down for generations and told in stories by brilliant writers like the Brothers Grimm. One fairytale classic is going under the frightening transformation this September for Mermaid’s Song.
A dark homage to Hans Christian Anderson’s The Little Mermaid, and starring Game of Thrones’  Iwan Rheon, the film is set during the 1930s depression and tells of young Charlotte, who is struggling to keep the family business afloat. When gangster Randall offers to pay off the family debt – he demands some illegal changes to the business. But Charlotte, like her mother before her, is a mermaid capable of controlling humans with nothing but her voice, which creates a battle between all of those who want Charlotte’s magical powers for themselves.
From director Nicholas Humphries, and starring Iwan Rheon, Katelyn Mager, and Brendan Taylor, Mermaid’s Song arrives on digital September 18, 2018, from Wild Eye Releasing.
