Sleeping Beauty (2014): Olivia d'Abo and Grace Van Dien


     Directed by Casper Van Dien, very loosely based on the classic fairy tale, Sleeping Beauty (2014) adds a B-Movie twist to the old story… with zombies and other monsters getting into the mix. The story centers on a prince and his whipping boy, who learn of a beautiful princess cursed with eternal sleep… and they venture off to rescue her from the evil queen that cast the spell. Bad special effects are counterbalanced by the beauty of the female leads. Grace Van Dien is radiant as Dawn/Sleeping Beauty. Olivia d'Abo is seductive as the evil Queen Tambria. The rest of the cast is hit or miss, including Finn Jones, Casper Van Dien and Edward Lewis French.
