Description:

The Stylist is a 2016 short horror movie directed by Jill Gevargizian.

 

Something shocking happens to a stylist's (played by Najarra Townsend) last client.

Review:

This 14 minute short was well shot, ominous, and interesting.

There are only three characters and there isn't much of a plot since it's so short, but it kept me wanting more. I liked the editing, it worked well with the sound effects and mirrored the client's experience as she starts to feel weirdly drowsy. I don't want to spoil anything, in case you are planning on checking it out.

Overall the acting was alright. The film kept my interest since I had no idea what to expect. I usually like the pace of short films since there isn't much time to tell the story and exciting things usually happen right away. The ending was a bit drawn out, but it made me wonder more about the stylist and what was going to happen to her.

The main plot of the film was disturbing. The special effects were done well, and the music fit well with the scenes. It helped create a creepy tone. I could see this being a full feature film and I feel like it would be similar to May (2002). I recommend checking this out if you're bored and have 14 minutes to kill! 

Rating:

3 Scissors out of 5 (since it's not a full movie!)
