Helter Skelter 2012

Based on Kyoko Okazaki's award-winning Helter Skelter manga, the film stars Erika Sawajiri as Ririko, a model who underwent extensive plastic surgery to attain her beauty. The clinic that performed Ririko's surgeries goes under investigation for questionable business practices, and Ririko's body starts to deteriorate. As the model's prominence in the entertainment industry begins to falter, so does her sanity.

Thou I am not a Ayumi Hamasaki's fan, given that she has a prima donna attitude as her record company Avex, bends over backwards for her even though other artist such as Namie Amuro and GACKT are more commercially worldwide known. Her 2001 song “evolution” once used for a makeup commercial is the film's theme song. A couple of people who were unfortunate to see the 2009 movie Dragonball Evolution may remember hearing her song “Rule” which was used as the main theme song for the movie.

The film will premiere in Japan on July 14.

Below is a scene during production follow by the new movie trailer.
