Medusa Deluxe15

Directed by Thomas Hardiman | UK | 2022 | 1h 41m | Starring Clare Perkins, Kayla Meikle, Lilit Lesser, Debris Stevenson, Anita-Joy Uwajeh

A high-stakes hairdressing competition descends into paranoia and chaos after a participant is found brutally murdered. Mistrust builds among the remaining contestants as they try to uncover the identity of the killer. A flamboyant and absurdly comic whodunnit brilliantly shot by Oscar-nominated cinematographer Robbie Ryan (The Favourite) and featuring extravagant hair designs by renowned stylist Eugene Souleiman.

Reviews

‘The film luxuriates in gossip and back-stabbery, the complex character dynamics playing out like a heightened, glamorous, deadly soap opera.’
★★★★
John Nugent, Empire Magazine

‘A directorial debut that successfully injects a fresh, vibrant perspective into the murder mystery genre’
Cheyenne Bunsie, Little White Lies
