Mark: Now remember, people, don't try looking us up in the phone book. And if Mr. Kincaid answers the phone, don't say anything about buying our movies on eBay. You got it?
Jonah: Here, I got one. Angel. Not Buffy, this flick’s from 1984.
Mark: High school student by day, hooker by night? This flick is B-grade trash. The killer stalks these Sunset Boulevard streetwalkers and has sex with their dead bodies, but this is not a horror flick. I have serious issues with this movie.
Jonah: This film did crazy box office, though, and why? Because it had a great shot of Donna Wilkes, who played Molly, aka Angel, the teen hooker, on the poster, as both an innocent high school student split screen with her chillin’ in a skin-tight leather skirt.
Mark: This movie made its money on video, you dope. This was one of the sexiest video boxes out there back in ’85.
Jonah: Competing with more than two hundred other Porky’s-ripoffs? Doubtful. Look, right here.
(Jonah swipes a movie off the shelf)
Jonah: Example A. Remember Hardbodies?
Mark: Worthless.
Jonah: No slashers, mutilations, and/or other crimes against nature does not equal a film gone wrong. Hardbodies dropped a lot of philosophy on impressionable young heads.
Mark: How to pick up women using silly tricks once you’re an over the hill middle-aged loser, course 101.
Jonah: The lessons I took away were beauty’s not always skin deep, and there’s more important things in life than scamming on pretty girls. All the middle age dudes end up rejecting the BBD philosophy and reconcile with their ex-wives.
Mark: You are just lying like hell because you think your Rollergirl might be on eBay reading this bullshit!
Jonah: For real, man. Just like Angel also had a deep message.
Mark: Such as?
Jonah: Even on the mean streets of Los Angeles, the human spirit perseveres. See, Angel has all these friends, crusty LA street characters, weird types with names like Kit Carson and Yo-Yo Charlie, and in the end they’re the ones who save her from the killer, not the cops.
Mark: Are you sure?
Jonah: I think so. Look, they made two sequels, so somebody was paying attention.
Mark: You don’t even know. People! If you want a trashy slice of early eighties exploitation that doesn’t even qualify as a drive-in movie, this one’s for you. Trying to pass itself off as kiddie porn but never quite succeeding, cute good girl gone bad, necrophiliac serial killer, overall, a fun movie. So bid on it!
