Armageddon Boulevard (1998)

For a troubled teen, Will discovers what is important in life when he attends a summer camp: the people who care about his well being.

A brief look at two Barry Jenkins films that have established him as one of the greatest filmmakers of our time.

Written and directed by Eva Victor, who also plays Agnes, the main character, Sorry, Baby is slow and artsy, but extremely effective. It shows how the trauma developed after a sexual assault has a ripple effect and loudly echoes in the victim and her life for years after.

The height of subversive horror cinema is Jennifer’s Body. No, I will never budge on that. Yes, Cabin in The Woods is funny, Scream is very well made, and the Scary Movie franchise is …. there. But nothing is quite as satisfying as watching the teenage succubus that is Jennifer Check rip apart boys. In the post #metoo era where the industry is far from changed, watching revenge flicks like these is probably one of the most cathartic experiences due to the slow-moving progress being made.

If you’ve been itching for a sign to finally go on that unforgettable summer camping trip, this is it.
