The Ugly Stepsister
The Ugly Stepsister is below average at 46% across 115 head-to-head matchups, but it's not out of the conversation. The gap to 50% is closable. A dark fairy tale reimagining that divides voters on tone before they even evaluate the filmmaking. That polarization is the defining feature of its bracket identity — strong reactions in both directions, very few shrugs.
Synopsis
In a fairy-tale kingdom where beauty is a brutal business, Elvira battles to compete with her incredibly beautiful stepsister, and she will go to any length to catch the prince’s eye.
The semis at 52% are where The Ugly Stepsister looks like a real competitor. The rest of the bracket — 38% in the finals — is where the overall record drags it down.
On the other end of the spectrum: Together at 86% is a comfortable win, while 28 Years Later at 24% is the matchup The Ugly Stepsister can't crack.
