Re: The Stylist
A good character study of a hair stylists' descent into madness. The movie is not as strong in the middle half but it opens well and ends with a shocker. Even though mostly you can see the end coming you want the character to be finally at peace with her client instead, which is the beauty of the story and direction from Jill Gevargizian. Najarra Townsend is brilliant in this.
This definitely worked better as a dark character study than a horror a film IMO eventhough there is a horror/slasher element. The performances elvevated the most for me though, especially Najarra Townsend who is pretty great in this and Brea Grant who is usually pretty solid in everything I've seen her in.
