Produktbeschreibung

Obsession gets a makeover in The Stylist, a deliciously twisted slice of female-led psychological horror, nominated for the New Visions Award for Best Motion Picture at the 2020 Sitges International Film Festival and based on co-writer/director Jill Gevargizian’s award-winning short film of the same name.We all dream of being someone else… but for Claire (Najarra Townsend, Contracted), that dream goes from an obsession to a living nightmare. Hairstylist by day, serial killer and collector of scalps by night, Claire’s lonely existence is thrown into turmoil when her regular client, Olivia (Brea Grant, After Midnight, Lucky), asks her to style her hair for her wedding day. Increasingly fixated on Olivia’s seemingly flawless life, Claire vows to lock up her scalp collection and change her ways for good – only to discover that repressing your deadly desires is easier said than done…Featuring striking visuals and pitch-perfect performances from its talented cast, The Stylist offers viewers “a delicately deranged glimpse into social anxiety and loneliness” (Slashfilm) – a bold and mesmerizing debut feature from a filmmaker to watch.Product FeaturesHigh Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentationOriginal DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 audioOptional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingAudio commentary by co-writer/producer/director Jill Gevargizian and actress/producer Najarra TownsendIntroduction by Jill GevargizianThe Invisible Woman, a visual essay by author and critic Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, exploring the themes of women’s labor and female killers in The Stylist and horror cinemaThe Stylist – Behind the Scenes, a series of eight behind-the-scenes featurettes on different aspects of the film’s production, featuring interviews with the cast and crew Location scouting featuretteOuttakesOriginal Kickstarter videoThe original 2016 The Stylist short film directed by Jill Gevargizian and starring Najarra Townsend, that inspired the main featurePity, a 2016 short film directed by The Stylist’s editor, John Pata, and executive produced by Jill Gevargizian, with an optional introduction by PataTeaser trailerTheatrical trailerImage galleriesReversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Sara Deck
