Show Notes
"My whole life is a dark room, one big dark room." Teenage goth girls obsessed with the afterlife rarely get to star in a movie, and despite the presence of the titular ghost with the most, BEETLEJUICE is the story of Lydia Deetz and her incredible bangs. Being uprooted isn't fun for anyone, but moving into a house haunted by the recently deceased certainly complicates things. Let's say farewell to the most wonderful time of the year with The Wives Colangelo and the sounds of Harry Belafonte. -------- Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom -------- MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT The Cornell Daily Sun Alumni Association: https://www.cornellsun.com/page/donate -------- Social Media Plugs @ThisEndsAtProm @BJColangelo @HarmonyColangelo ---------- Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDo Theme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"Sister." 45 years ago, a teenage girl named Zoë Lund was cast in the titular role of Abel Ferrara's MS .45. Considered one of the premier films in the rape-revenge subgenre, MS .45 is a righteous rallying cry for anyone who has ever been wronged, and a reminder to us all that we don't have to sit back and let people take advantage of us.

"Eating makes me feel best when I feel bad, and boy do I feel bad." Over 40 years ago, Rita Mae Brown and Amy Holden Jones crafted a slasher classic that completely deconstructed the male gaze and gendered relationship with the horror genre with a low-budget B-movie that took years for people to fully understand.

"Don't you want to be an urban legend, Nat? All your friends are now." It's the most wonderful time of the year!

"In the end, my girlfriend became my arch-enemy, my arch-enemy became my best friend, and my best friend became my girlfriend. But, hey, it's high school." Have you ever noticed the parallels between the archetypal superhero origin stories and the average coming-of-age teen movie tropes? This week, The Wives Colangelo are going up, up, and away to SKY HIGH, and examining the way Disney's non-Marvel superhero movie is the perfect exploration of the cruel hierarchy of high school that somehow doubles as an allegory for coming out.
