When I was a kid, my family had a VHS of a rather strange version of Cinderella. This version was probably made in the late 1980's or 1990's. What made this version odd is that it seemed to be a recording of a Cinderella stage production. It was a very professional production and was not a like recording of a high school show or community theater, or anything as the movie had many different camera angles and fairly good video quality. There was also singing, I remember it being a musical. The only parts I remember was a a short snippet of the ugly stepsisters and a nightmare scene that really freaked me out. The nightmare scene happened after Cinderella fell asleep on the stairs, the stage went red and the stepmother did a creepy dance while ominous music was playing. Like I said before, this scene really creeped me out as a kid and I didn't really get scared my movies even at a young age.
I watched this movie at least a few times when I was really young, so that puts me viewing it at around 2004-2007. This movie came in a clamshell case and had it's own cover art, so that probably means it was distributed in stores. My copy got donated to thrift stores along with my family's other VHS tapes. I checked other Cinderella movies it it was NOT Cinderalla 1965 or Cinderella 1997 or studio movies like that, as it was a filming of a stage production. The Faerie Tale Theater episode of Cinderella is similar but it's not the one I remember. I don't recall it having any other titles so it was most likely simply titled "Cinderella" but I cannot find the version I'm looking for in a Google Search. So if any of you have seen this or know what it is, let me know. Thanx!
