This was just the Halloween trick - or - treat I needed. 80s Black music & CULTure with a great cast, comedy and campy horror. And a breakout lead actress so new she doesn't even have a profile pic in the 'actors' list. I recommend!

This is sort of a dark comedy. The comedy is dry tho. This is a message film and the changes in tone mesh but the comedy aspects don't really work because I found myself laughing at parts that were supposed to be "scary". I think the most well done part is the parodying of 90s hip hop and R&B culture. The parts with music videos and Usher were fantastic and the best parts. It has a similar concept to a 90s version of the Amazon show Them. Different stories but the same underlying themes. Them is done much better tho. My Ratings 10 - I love it, regardless of quality 9 - Very good, might not love but very well done or might love, forgiving some issues 8 - Very enjoyable or Just OK for me but well done 7 - Good 6 - Watchable despite not liking the film/show 5 - Mid 3-4 - Not great, but got through it 1-2 - Very bad/You might be a communist if you like this garbage

Hidden gem! Folk horror satire set in the 80s focusing on a young woman trying to succeed in television, she gets a new haircut but it looks like it has a mind of it's own. It has some cultural vibes and a strong message about body image, diversity, being too agreeable, beauty comes with a cost and change isn't always good. Loved the folklore they brought in, I wanted to know so much more about the moss girl and would like a copy of the Slave Lore book. The hair effects were pretty solid and nice to look at, the kills were great and unexpected, dig the grainy picture and 16mm, loved the music choices and I didn't feel the runtime that much. Nothing scary just a really fun watch with a wild third act. Where the hell was Laverne Cox (the hair dresser) for the second half of the movie, I wanted more!

You have never had a bad hair day like this one! It’s a pretty good movie overall but its messages are sometimes lost beneath the crazy hair-stryonics!

Great satirical horror! Great to see Elle lorraine in the starring role! She has produced great shows too!
