Helter Skelter (bluray) Individually Numbered Collector Edition
HELTER SKELTER (2012) directed by Mika Ninagawa. Individually Numbered bluray.
Top model and fashion idol Lilico (Erika Sawajiri) is used to being the centre of attention – the living epicentre of her own universe and of a multimedia-saturated hyperreality in which everything is airbrushed and colour-adjusted to perfection. When she begins to suffer traumatic side effects from her repeated illegal cosmetic surgery sessions, she finds fame comes at a cost, as she is plunged into a nightmarish world where her sense of self-image and identity begins to fracture.
This lurid body horror, based on a manga by Kyoko Okazaki and directed by critically acclaimed photographer and filmmaker Mika Ninagawa (SAKURAN), is a candy-coloured nightmare, presenting both an assault to the senses and to the picture-perfect world of the fashion and advertising.
Much like THE SUBSTANCE (2024) HELTER SKELTER explores the theme of female stars grappling with aging and the pressure of society's expectation, leading to obsessive self-destruction.
