THE BROTHERS GRIMM ...

Is a movie by Terry Gilliam that is a brilliant mashup of all the traditional fairytales in a way only Terry Gilliam could do. It is a bit similar to the movie 'Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters' in its premise of monster hunting siblings in a fairytale world but much less disappointing in execution! I happened to watch the movie just after doing some pretty intense folklore research and can say that it is excellent in its combination of all the various sources.

It isn't as well known as some of Terry Gilliam's other Movies but is just as good.

Here is a link to The Brothers Grimm on Amazon where you can but it.
