Be prepared for some real good flesh and pain! The sign of aging is real serious problem for women especially in Japan. You will be laughed to death if you are not seriously taken care of your own beauty and grooming, it bores you and irritates you. Hence, beauty products are everywhere in Japan and a face makeover seems to be part of their daily life's routine. Mika Ninagawa's latest film <Heruta Sukeruta> or better known as <Helter Skelter 整容天后> based on Kyoko Okazaki's award-winning manga is rather disturbing if you are not well prepared. LiLiCo (Erika Sawajiri), a model or perhaps Pseudo model and TV celeb in her mid-twenties whose flawless doll-like features and curvy figure are in high demand. When she is not playing the pixy or vamp for the flashing cameras, in a dazzling array of frocks, she is tyrannizing those around her, beginning with her devoted and besotted manager (Shinobu Terajima), who admires a beauty that can never be hers, despite the overbearing narcissism of its possessor. How long can such plastic beauty last and lust (there are plenty of sex and erotic scenes)? This two-hour-plus film may give you a solution with music composer Koji Ueno's slashing, thrusting avant-garde sounds tracks made the movie more interesting than the usual tinkling piano score or saccharine J-pop. Once again, be prepared!
