Despite years of sanitized retelling courtesy of high-profile Disney films, the fairy tales of Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm have persistently held onto their macabre roots across the past two centuries. It's led to a cult fascination with their darkest stories and general depictions of German folklore, including a multitude of more unfiltered film adaptations. One of its more fun outings mixes this darkness with an eccentric humor characteristic of director Terry Gilliam with his 2005 film, The Brothers Grimm. Featuring the star duo of Matt Damon and the late Heath Ledger, the film was certainly far from a box office win, it's retained status as a memorable cult gem of the era.
