Helter Skelter examines the dark side of beauty privilege through Ririko, a top model whose surgically constructed perfection begins to crumble under industry pressure and personal instability. With striking visuals and an intense atmosphere, the film captures the psychological toll of fame, though some narrative choices and repetitive public narration lessen its emotional impact compared to Helter Skelter. Despite its uneven execution, it remains a provocative and visually compelling exploration of identity, obsession, and the cost of perfection.
