Perpetrator
Tumblr media
If Judy Chicago directed a horror film (hey, it could happen), it would probably look like parts of Jennifer Reeder’s PERPETRATOR (2023, Shudder). Reeder is obsessed with blood in the film as a sign of womanhood and female power. Jonquil (Kiah McKirnan) is about to turn 18, so her father (Tim Hopper) ships her to a nearby town to live with her great aunt (a very good, tightly controlled Alicia Silverstone, who hardly looks old enough to be a great aunt, but that’s the point) as the young woman comes into her power. She comes from a long line of “mirrors,” female empaths who can reflect the thoughts, emotions, voices and sometimes even bodies of others. Each mirror has her own special version of the power, and McKirnan’s is not only particularly strong but also allows her blood to provide entry to a sacred female space. There’s one sequence in which she attends a party and unconsciously imitates the dancing of various guests. That’s a great metaphor for the way personality can develop from learned behaviors, but the film has a horror element as well, or it wouldn’t be on Shudder. High school girls have been disappearing from the town, and McKirnan starts sharing their thoughts and emotions. It’s a clever set-up, though the film suffers from a shift in styles. Early on, the action is fragmentary and elliptical, drawing on narrative and theatrical forms suggested by feminist critics to make women’s art mirror women’s experiences. But when Reeder needs to move the plot forward, she abandons that, and goes for more straightforward storytelling, which can be a bit jarring. She also changes the nature of McKirnan’s gift in a way that provides for a powerful metaphor at the end but violates the logic she’s set up. Reeder’s is a powerful cinematic vision, nonetheless, and that makes the film a lot more interesting than many more consistent, less imaginative pictures.

JENNIFER REEDER
Perpetrator, de Jennifer Reeder. EE.UU. 2023. 100 minutos. VOSE – Estreno en España -
En el nuevo instituto de una adolescente problemática, que ha sido enviada a vivir con su tía, se suceden desapariciones de chicas. El día de su 18 cumpleaños, la joven, adquiere unos poderes especiales que le llevaran a enfrentarse al asesino.
Jennifer Reeder vuelve a She Makes Noise con su nuevo largometraje, Perpetrator, estrenado en el festival de cine de Berlín. Una nueva aproximación al universo de los institutos y las adolescentes, esta vez a través de una visión posmoderna del cine de terror, cuestionando e incluso parodiando las reglas del género, desde el arranque con el propio diseño de los créditos hasta los puntos de vista subjetivos o el uso de la banda sonora.
La protagonista de Perpetrator, Jonny Baptiste, una joven problemática, que vive junto a su padre enfermo, es enviada a vivir con su tía, una enigmática mujer de tintes góticos. En el nuevo instituto en el que empieza a estudiar desaparecerán varias adolescentes, mientras, Jonny, sufre una metamorfosis radical en su 18 cumpleaños adquiriendo unos poderes que le llevarán a enfrentarse al Perpetrator. Con una exuberante puesta en escena y su habituales atmósferas de surrealismo kitsch, Perpetrator reflexiona sobre como históricamente las mujeres que se han salido de la norma han sido tildadas de “mujeres locas”, rompe tabús sobre las transformaciones que sufren los cuerpos en la adolescencia y analiza el trauma en el que está sumida la sociedad americana, marcada por la violencia sistémica y la superficialidad.
Tras su estreno en Berlin, Perpetrator ha sido seleccionada en otros prestigiosos festivales internacionales de cine como: Karlovy Vary (República Checa), Tribeca Film Festival (New York) New Horizons International Film Festival (Polonia) u Olhar de Cinema (Brasil)
Jennifer Reeder (Estados Unidos, 1971) cineasta y docente formada en The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, posee una extensa y prestigiosa filmografía, que le ha llevado a estrenar sus películas en los más destacados festivales a nivel internacional (Sundance, Berlinale, Róterdam, BFI Londres, Oberhausen, Ann Arbor o Vila do Conde) y en contextos artísticos como la Bienal de Venecia, la Bienal de Whitney o el MOMA PS1. Es asesora en el programa de cine Indígena del festival de Sundance y ha recibido numerosos reconocimientos y becas, incluida USA Fellowship (2021), the Alpert Film Award residency en MacDowell Colony, y el premio SFFIM/Rainin Foundation.

Film after film: Perpetrator (dir. Jennifer Reeder, 2023)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Speaking of the delay, I still haven't logged all the Berlinale 23 films here. This is the worst one, which annoyed me even more because I chose watching it over something else that was definitely better. It's a pastiche of vampire horror films, mixed with high-school dramedy (Clueless, of course!) with a feminism-for-dummies political bent. Probably the worst part of it is what came out in post-production: sound and image mixing and editing, which makes this film look like one of those countless low-budget thrillers and horrors, inspired by the 90s-techno look and vibe. It's a horrible, horrible waste of time, even more than Silverstone-starring The Requin, which begs a question: why, Alicia Silverstone, why are you in this shit after being cast by Lanthimos a few years ago?

Signature Move (2017)
I remember Jennifer Reeder’s surrealist high school melodrama Knives & Skin harshly dividing the audience at Overlook Film Fest in 2019, with the more macho Horror Bros in the crowd grumbling that it was the worst film they’d seen all fest and with other scattered weirdos gushing that it was the best.  Personally, I dug it, especially for the way it warped the teen-friendly Lynchian melodrama of…
