What's your favorite image from the movie.


This movie has given me on off my most indelable and favorite images from a motion picture: Cute little Angel, in high-heels and a mini-skirt, chasing after the bad guy carrying this huge, huge gun. (Must have been a S&W Model 29 long barrel). The gun is so big that when she lets it dangle in her hand the barrel is almost down to her knees!

Wilke's arm must have been hurting if she carried the real gun through that whole chase sequence!

That's great, I loved that scene. I love when it's really late at night and she's skipping over the stars with her two wacky friends. It just shows how much they love each other.

My favorite scene was the fight scene between the killer and Mae. It was very convincing and showed that size doesn't always matter. The killer suddenly got an angle to stab Mae over and over and that's all it took.

I'd have to say my favorite shot in the whole movie was the one in which the lecherous jerk jock from Molly's school loses control of his bladder in front of all his friends. Oh man, did he have that coming! Yes, you jerk, that is a gun, and no, she's not happy to see you!

The last third of the movie is marvellous, starting with the card game interrupted by the school counselor, then that goofy fight scene with the drag queen firing off zingers to her last breath and the epic chase where the hooker guns down a Buddhist!

A true trash classic. John Waters should do a remake.

It’s definitely got to be Angel walking down the strip in the yellow dress carrying the hand cannon looking for the bad guy. Great movie but I only wish they would have carried it a little longer so we might have learned how Angel turned out or if she ever reunited with her father.

Two favorites: the bad guy shooting his way out of the police station and the tough social services woman handling the landlord.
The nude scenes were pretty nice too :-)

Not strictly FROM the movie, but its hard to beat the poster cover art with the two pictures of Angel and the great tagline.
