Film Information

Talented, ambitious, and backstabbing hairstylists gather for a competition in England, only to find one of their own murdered before judging can begin. Winding through neon-lit halls and backstage dressing rooms, competitors unspool long-simmering resentments and secrets as they search for the killer among them, in this uniquely stylish whodunit from debut filmmaker Thomas Hardiman.

Reviews

“From its playfully inventive opening to its flash-forward finale, Thomas Hardiman’s wild — and wildly impressive — first feature, set during a British regional hairdressing competition, is a proudly indelicate, painstakingly structured pleasure.”

Jeannette Catsoulis
New York Times

“Medusa Deluxe is what you would get if Ru Paul made a murder mystery Russian Ark – and somehow, it’s even better than that sounds.”

Alexandra Heller-Nicholas
AWFJ.org

“Partially inspired by Hardiman’s own time working as a coiffeur, Medusa Deluxe is an intoxicating comedy-thriller built on a brilliantly unique premise, striking the viewer like a blast of hairspray in the eyes .”
