katseye: wild hearts movie (review and makeup look)

There is something fun about heading to the movie theater. I have always loved the smell of popcorn, the plushy seats, and the thrill of new movie trailers. This time around, it was the KATSEYE: Wild Hearts movie that brought me to the movies. This documentary had limited screenings last week and I was able to purchase a ticket for the screening in my area on the 12th. It was a documentary with behind the scenes footage and interviews with members of the band ahead of the Wild EP release. Keep reading for a mini review of the movie and a look at the outfit and makeup that I wore to the Wild Hearts screening.


For the Wild Hearts movie screening, it made sense to wear one of my favourite pieces of KATSEYE merchandise, which is a hoodie from Hot Topic with the band logo on the front and a picture of the band on the back. (Even though it is summer, movie theaters always seem to have the air conditioning on full blast, so a hoodie was needed.) Since the band logo on the front of the sweater is red, a decision was made to take inspiration from the latest KATSEYE music video, Animal, which has a lot of red, black, and grey. I chose to wear gold accessories, with a simple pair of gold hoops and a textured gold ring. For the makeup, there were some spooky seasonal favourites selected from my collection, like the Poisoned Forest eyeshadow palette and the Thirsty Vampire contour palette from Wet n Wild. On the lips was one of the Kylie Cosmetics lip colours from the King Kylie line, True Brown K. The idea was to create a look for the KATSEYE: Wild Hearts movie screening that was both casual and dramatic. 


As you can see from the photo above, this look was all about embracing my inner Eyekon. The red eyeshadow shades from the Poisoned Forest eyeshadow palette were used and a little bit of black eyeshadow was pulled in from another palette in my collection to make sure the look was ultra dark and dramatic. There was also lots of eyeliner and mascara used to intensify the overall look. It was fun to get creative ahead of the movie. Speaking of the movie, here is a mini review of my experience.

The crowd at the movies was...young. I felt about a million years old, because almost everyone was between the ages of twelve and seventeen. I guess the older fans were less interested in watching a documentary about the band. The crowd was also a little rowdy, as there was a lot of clapping, screaming, and giggling. Again, I felt about a million years old. As for the movie itself, it was something that I found really interesting. Wild Hearts essentially looks at different moments the band has experienced, like filming music videos and performing at noteworthy festivals. There are interviews with each of the current band members and there was a sneak peek into the recording of a new song, Unloveu. It was interesting to see how much goes into the performance rehearsals. The highlight of the documentary was the section dedicated to Megan, who spoke about her struggles with mental health and anxiety. It was refreshing to see something so honest and relatable included in the documentary. The documentary was definitely interesting from a fan perspective, but for those unfamiliar with KATSEYE, it is unlikely to be of much interest. (Which is probably why my husband accidentally took a nap during the movie.) For fans, there is a lot of interesting behind the scenes footage, with Wild Hearts delivering a retrospective of the first few years of the band.

  1. Thanks =) Oh yes this was really annoying because I wanted to party like a rockstar and on friday I was partying like a zombie from "The Walking Dead" :D But I was happy that it was better on the rest of the weekend.

    This movie sounds really interesting, I think I will watch it some day too.
    I love your make up look, it looks super beautiful <3 The colours of your eyes & lips are so nice with your hair.
    I think some movies are more for the younger ones and some for the older ones. When we saw "Bob Dylan" there were more older people - like 60 and above but we liked it a lot :D
