Following in the wake of Winnie the Pooh and Mickey Mouse getting their own horror movies, Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid is the next to get its own “R” rated twist.

Lionsgate’s horror movie The Little Mermaid will release on Digital outlets December 17, 2024.

The film is rated “R” for language, violence, and nudity. Lionsgate previews, “Beauty is deceiving and dangerous in this darkly fascinating twist on Hans Christian Andersen’s tale.”

In the upcoming horror movie from director Leigh Scott, “After archeologist Dr. Eric Prince and his students uncover an ancient pagan temple in the depths of the Caribbean, Eric falls for a mysterious woman who resembles a mermaid he and his team encountered at sea.

“As their relationship intensifies, she leads Eric deeper into her evil underwater world until he must choose between true love and the destruction of all humanity.”

Mike Markoff, Jeff Denton, Samuel Selman, Sean Michael Argo, Winston Crooke, Steven Yniguez, Manon Laurent, and Lydia Helen star in this unofficial Little Mermaid horror movie.

Originally published in 1837, the original tale of The Little Mermaid is now in the public domain.

Go crazy, horror filmmakers.
