Celebrated at many film festivals over the years was Jill Gevargizian‘s exceptional indie horror “The Stylist”, which featured the wonderful Najarra Townsend (Contracted) as a hairstylist-turned-slasher.
After a highly successful festival run, Gevargizian turned to Kickstarter to help finance a feature-length version of her hair care horror story that would not only bring Townsend back as the stylist, Claire, but feature horror veteran Brea Grant (Rob Zombie’s Halloween II, 12 Hour Shift, Lucky, Dead Awake) with Millie Milan.
Huge news for Stylist fans as the film will be slashing its way to its international premiere in Spain at the 53rd Sitges Film Festival!
In the feature take on Gevergizian’s film, “Everyone dreams of being someone else… but for Claire (Towsend), that dream goes from an obsession to a living nightmare. Her job as a hairstylist allows her to move in and out of other people’s worlds, but when the right target sits in her chair, she does more than observe the client’s life – she ends it, and keeps a permanent souvenir.
“Her lonely life, meticulous method and shocking secrets are suddenly thrown into turmoil when her regular client, Olivia (Grant), asks her to style her hair for her wedding.”
Bloody Disgusting can’t wait to see the finished product. In the meantime, here’s a first look with art and a trailer hopefully coming soon. Watch for distribution news as it comes in.
