The mermaid is both a lover and a monster in this Polish film, which comfortably embraces musical, horror, and fantasy genres in equal measure. When mermaid sisters Golden (Michalina Olszanska) and Silver (Marta Mazurek) come to land to perform in a Warsaw nightclub in the ‘80s, the result is at once a modern spin on the beauty and body horrors of womanhood, the immigrant experience, and a dark fairy tale that taps into the tragic heart of the Hans Christian Andersen source material. The much-awaited teaser trailer for The Little Mermaid has been released, featuring a scene in which Ariel swims through the ocean before settling down. In this trailer, we get a glimpse of her face and hear her singing a portion of "Part of Your World."

There’s arguably too much going on in director Milan Todorovic’s 2014 nightmare, complete with a secondary antagonist weirdly reminiscent of “I Know What You Did Last Summer.” Still, this is the truest bluest mermaid slasher on the market, staking out essential territory for mythical monsters in the genre.

But the heart of the film lies in its emphasis on the history of artistic resistance to fascism, and the redemptive power of not only love but imagination in the face of an isolating modern world. And apparently Parisians rival New Yorkers in their ability to completely disregard a mermaid tail when they see it. Ranked by both entertainment value and category relevance, here are the 23 best movies about mermaids, sea monsters, and magical creatures walking on land. We’re updating this list in spring 2023, in honor of the release of Disney’s live-action remake of “The Little Mermaid”: swimming into theaters May 26.

Disney releases Halle Bailey's full rendition of Ariel's legendary ballad "Part of Your World" on all music platforms. The song was originally sung by Jodi Benson in the 1989 film.

However, he ultimately decided not to sign on to the project and negotiations between him and the studio came to a halt. ( Source: Collider) Writer-director John Sayles dives into author Rosalie K. Fry’s 1957 novel “Secret of the Ron Mor Skerry” in this understated exploration of selkies, creatures of Celtic and Norse mythology described as transformed seals who can shed their skin to appear human on land. When 12-year-old Fiona Coneelly (Jeni Courtney) moves to an isolated fishing village to stay with her grandparents, she grows convinced her long lost baby brother is living along the shoreline. The fanciful-yet-simple adventure has an almost meditative quality, guided by the knowing hand of the mind behind “Matewan.” While Golden mostly views humans as a source of food and fun, Silver is the tragic romantic who falls in love with a human, surgically replacing her tail with legs and losing her voice as a result. A deeply feminist gothic tale that also finds grim humor in objectification, director Agnieszka Smoczynska makes having — and doing — it all look easy… on-screen, at least. It’s star Halle Bailey, appearing in her first leading role, who makes the best case for why this classic Disney tale needed to be made into a live-action affair. Just look at her face, so expressive and so open, so deeply and wonderfully human and alive. There are some things even the most lovingly rendered pieces of hand-drawn animation just can’t match, and Bailey’s emotive skill is one of them. (And her stunning singing? Further icing on the “this young woman is a movie star” cake.) —KEThe 2nd bedroom features a Queen bed and the 3rd bedroom comes with a Twin over Full Bunk Bed and Pull Out Twin Trundle. Each room also features a flat-screen HDTV. The shared hallway bath for bedrooms 2 and 3 also has great stone selections as well as fun decorative fixtures for that perfect detailed touch. There is also a Queen-sized sleeper sofa in the living room. Give Disney some credit; it knows how to keep this story enchanting. It can’t cover for the fact that the new Little Mermaid is far too derivative of an iconic story that’s already been told, but Halle Bailey is a wonder as Ariel, whose fascination with humans leads her to give up her voice so she can gain legs and be with her prince. Radical is likely the last thing that comes to mind for Disney’s interpretation of the classic fairy tale, but all the focus on how Ariel gives up her voice for a man doesn’t change that Eric was the mere catalyst for Ariel’s resolve to take the first step to change her body to match who she knows she is on the inside. And of course, by the end, Ariel gets to have her kelp and eat it too.
