It involved a lot of nail-biting and victorious shouting. If you’ve been hiding away in a cabin in the woods without internet working on becoming the next Bon Iver, here’s what you’ve missed: SWATH is a darker telling of this classic fairy tale, in which the Evil Queen (played ferociously and viciously by Charlize Theron) hires The Huntsman (the ever-rugged Chris Hemsworth) to track down her competition, Snow White (the always bad-ass Kristen Stewart).

You guys, this Snow White knows how to handle a knife. Bring it on.
