Leaving January 1

Directed by Robert Lee King | 96 mins | 2000
The wholesome genre of 1950s beach movies gets a demented camp makeover in the parodic, perky-paletted story of Chicklet (Lauren Ambrose), a teenager who becomes a suspect in a serial killer investigation because of her multiple personalities. Screenwriter/playwright Charles Busch plays Captain Monica Stark, a suspicious cop, with Amy Adams and Nicholas Brendon (Buffy and the Vampire Slayer) also starring.
