Cut

Cut is a 2000 Australian slasher film directed by Kimble Rendall and starring Kylie Minogue, Molly Ringwald, Jessica Napier, and Tiriel Mora. Plot The movie begins with a mother cooking food at the kitchen stove and calling out to her kids about dinner, before leaving the house somewhere. The mother's daughter Chloe (Molly Ringwald) goes upstairs into her room, petting her cat, and starts taking a shower. Chloe finds "Now you die." written on the fogged up mirror in the bathroom, but she thinks it's her unseen brother doing it. After finding her cat dead on her bed, she answers her telephone that starts ringing, hearing a man's voice saying "Now you die." and locks her door as someone bangs on it. Chloe runs back to the bathroom to break a glass bottle to use as a weapon. A creepy masked man dressed in a boiler suit with modified garden shears, Scarman (Frank Roberts), breaks into her room. He corners her into a wall and slits her throat. This whole thing turns out to be a horror movie called Hot Blooded being filmed by director Hilary Jacobs (Kylie Minogue). Chloe is an actress named Vanessa Turnbill and Scarman is an actor named Brad. Hilary treats Brad horribly in front of everyone because he made a mistake during filming. Vanessa isn't nice to Brad either and threatens him if he ever tries to put his hands on her chest again, then screams for her personal assistant Lossman (Geoff Revel) to get her a coke. Later on, Brad who is still in his costume goes to see Hillary in her office because he is angry she embarrassed him in front of everyone. Hilary fires him, but Brad puts on the Scarman mask, cuts off his own pinky finger with his shears. This scares Hilary and he murders her by cutting off her tongue. Vanessa comes in to discuss something with Hilary and Brad attacks her, which they both struggle over the shears. Lossman comes in just as Vanessa gets a hold of the shears and stabs Brad through the neck, killing him. Strange electricity flashes around Brad's body.
