!["[A] forward-thinking feminist bent on the Riverdale school of neon Twin Peaks fetishism." – Katie Rife, AV Club
.
Opens Friday! Jennifer Reeder's KNIVES AND SKIN premieres December 6–10 • Visit brattlefilm.org for showtimes & tickets (link in profile)
.
“Neon-drenched cinematography, moody synthesizers, and acapella renditions of 80s pop hits are the foundations of this feminist teen noir that evokes the surreal dreamscape of Twin Peaks and the mean-girl existential malaise of Heathers. In Reeder’s uncanny exploration of communal trauma, where young women have magic powers and disheveled clowns have the ability to reanimate corpses, small-town mentality is presented as something bordering on psychosis.” – Tribeca Film Festival
