Incisors inside her

Why, why is "Teeth" not playing anywhere in St. Louis? Sure, the trailer looks kind of bleak. But after reading an NME review that lauds the film as a "vagina dentata tragicomedy/teen gross-out vehicle with a dim/grim view of patriarchy and shades of Watersesque camp and 'Donnie Darko' suburban-magic realism," I called both the Tivoli and the Hi-Pointe and pleaded with them to screen it. Meanwhile, the "Sex and the City" movie, a bona fide chick flick sure to make Andrea Dworkin turn in her grave like a rotisserie chicken, will hit theaters nationwide on May 30.

P.S. I'm posting from the Kingshighway Library, where a security guard just busted me for eating an apple. He appeared from nowhere and squatted to make eye contact with me: "Go ahead and finish your apple, but you can't eat in the library. It's cool if you wanta drink water, but when there's food in the library, the librarians get shit, and I catch heat too." Aw, the classic good cop with a cuss thrown in, so I don't mistake him for "the man." He's just a guy doing his job, and his job is sneaking up on people and their apples.
