Mirror Mirror (1990)

<p>Prep your Lydia from <em>Beetlejuice</em> cosplay and channel your inner <em>Carrie</em> because this week were delving into Marina Sargenti's direct-to-video film <em>Mirror Mirror</em> (1990). CW: the dogs die.</p><p>Written by sisters&nbsp;Annette and&nbsp;Gina Cascone, the film is almost entirely made by and starring women, including the fabulously named Rainbow Harvest, Karen Black and <em>The Munsters' </em>Yvonne De Carlo (in a very Tangina from <em>Poltergeist</em>-esque role).</p><p>Up for discussion: being picked last for sports, shitty high school teachers (Tobo!), Karen Black's wigs, sex acts involving reflective surfaces and steam room titties.</p><p>Plus: Joe teaches Trace the rules of water polo and why we heartily recommend the film despite a so-so 2nd half and audacious, unconventional ending.</p><p>Reference: Kate Hagen.
