According to an update from Box Office Vietnam on the morning of June 2nd, the film "Underworld Beauty Salon," starring Ngoc Trinh, has only one screening left and is at risk of being removed from theaters soon.
Previously, according to Box Office figures, Ngoc Trinh's film was experiencing a slump, with low ticket sales after 3 weeks of release. The film had 3 remaining screenings but sold none.
After its theatrical release, the cumulative revenue of "Underworld Beauty Salon" only reached approximately 12.66 billion VND. This figure shows that the film is gradually losing momentum at the box office amidst increasingly fierce competition in the film industry.
Notably, while Vietnamese horror films have consistently achieved box office revenues of tens to hundreds of billions of VND in recent years, the more than 12 billion VND earned by "Underworld Beauty Salon" is considered quite modest and has not met expectations.

The 100-minute film revolves around Thanh (Ngoc Trinh), a young doctor who accepts a job at a mysterious beauty clinic to earn money to save her comatose lover.
However, from the very beginning, she continuously encountered strange phenomena and gradually uncovered terrifying secrets hidden behind the facade of this facility.
In its initial release, the film was among the top-grossing films of the day and held over 10% of the box office market share. However, ticket sales did not maintain the expected momentum, causing revenue to quickly stagnate.
Besides market factors, content quality has also become a subject of debate. Many opinions suggest that the script lacks focus, the plot is drawn out and disjointed, and relies too heavily on jump scares instead of building a deep story.
Some details were criticized for being unconvincing, while the performances of the main cast, including Ngoc Trinh and Xuan Lan, failed to make a strong impression.
Additionally, viewers pointed out numerous technical errors and illogical details, such as dialogue not matching lip movements or characters consistently wearing heavy makeup regardless of the circumstances.
