THE STYLIST
(2021)
The feature-length adaptation of the award-winning short horror film was released by ARROW Video in 2021.
Everyone dreams of being someone else… but for Claire, 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, asks her to style her hair for her wedding.

"Thought-provoking, visually stunning, and fiercely directed, The Stylist puts Jill Gevargizian on the map as one of the most exciting directors working today."

"The Stylist is one of those movies that makes you love the horror genre. It feels fresh and new, but in tribute to its references. It’s shocking, but the tension plays out slowly and knowingly; you cringe knowing what’s about to happen so many times, but it’s because Gevargizian did such a fine job tuning the instrument before that blast."
