British label Icon Home Distribution has officially announced and detailed its upcoming Blu-ray release of Nicolas Winding Refn's film The Neon Demon (2016), starring Christina Hendricks, Elle Fanning, Keanu Reeves, Jena Malone, and Desmond Harrington. The release will be available for purchase on October 31.
Synopsis: With The Neon Demon Nicolas Winding Refn, director of the Ryan Gosling smash hit Drive, has come up with his most powerful, personal and visionary work yet. Truly unique, dazzlingly bold and with scenes that push the boundaries of mainstream cinema into the darkest recesses of the mind, The Neon Demon is a film that will frighten and fascinate, and haunt your dreams.
Regarded by many to be his finest film to date, Refn is at the height of his powers here – blending dazzling cinematography (by Natasha Braier), an extraordinary, pulsing synth score (by Drive composer Cliff Martinez), with superb performances (including a scene stealing cameo by Alessandro Nivola and an utterly unexpected appearance by Keanu Reeves) to deliver a truly unique, unforgettable vision of beauty, power and corruption.
Elle Fanning is astonishing in the role of Jesse, a beautiful, seemingly naïve small town girl braving the treacherous waters of the Los Angeles modelling scene. Jena Malone is coolly brilliant as make-up artist Ruby, while Bella Heathcote and Abby Lee excel as two supermodels who take a dislike to the elegant, innocent newcomer Jesse.
A sensation when it debuted at Cannes this year, the film was one of the most keenly anticipated and most talked about films of the year – not least because of its enigmatic, pored over plot, sensational imagery, and a couple of genuinely shocking scenes involving cannibalism and necrophilia.
Sure to be imitated but never repeated, The Neon Demon is a film experience like no other, from cinema's most exciting, uncompromising and unconventional film talent. It's a film that suggests beauty is only skin deep, then gets under the skin, and stays there.
