/100
The Neon Demon uses horror mechanics (dread, disturbing imagery, body-related motifs) to explore beauty obsession, but the film also functions as arthouse drama/psychological thriller about the fashion industry; horror is meaningful but not the sole driver of its identity.
DREADPICK SUMMARY
Best for viewers looking for a scary, psychological and low-gore horror movie.
