Subject: Film recommendation

I want to tell readers of my two favorite lists (4ad and Coil) of the
new Cindy Sherman directirial debut, "Office Killer".
If any of you want to be transported into a color noir, photographic,
psychologically disturbing, humorous and sensory tittilating film
experience, go see this film.

If some of you are not familiar with Sherman's photgraphy, she has used
herself as her subject for the past 20 years. Staging her own death,
appearing as non-star Hollywood stars, and as Royalty, are just some of
her experiments. By a few costume changes, and not much makeup, she can
convey an eerie yet familiar quality by mere facial expression.

When I left the theatre the film was still on me, it was like a layer I
had to wear off. Excellent composition, each frame is a photograph in
it's own right. Great acting by Carol Kane and Molly Ringwald. Top score
my Evan Lurie (John's brother).

Forget Scream 2, this is beyond horror movie.
