Prep your 80s New Wave acapella and your dead girl tropes because we're talking Jennifer Reeder's Knives and Skin (2019). Helping us search for the body is The Mary Sue's Princess Weekes, who offers invaluable insight into the costuming of WOC in this female-centric text. This is an unconventional episode for an unconventional film, which is much more of a vibe than a straightforward murder mystery.

Plus: why Mrs. Harper is so empathetic, messy clown sex, Reeder's interest in female agency, wet ass pussy papers, admiring a film even if you struggle with it, and smelling teen boys' t-shirts.
