THE PRINCESS BRIDE Recut as Trailer for THE PRINCESS DIED

I don’t even know what you’d call a horror remake of a satirical fairy tale, but that’s what we have here, sort of. YouTuber Phillip Raupach has recut The Princess Bride into a trailer for The Princess Died, which is a horror film that casts Wesley as a stalker hell-bent on destroying Princess Buttercup. The effect is mostly achieved by laying the “To the pain” monologue over shots of Wesley kicking ass, and it’s… disconcerting. That really is a deranged speech, but I never minded because Humperdink was such a, well, dink. Divorced of that context, though, I’m starting to think Wesley may have been a psychopath. In addition to being super dreamy, of course.
