Seeing Each Time I Kill confused me because the only gay thing about it is a very brief cameo by John Waters (Full disclosure: I don't know that Waters is gay, I just assume). Maybe Doris Wishman, the cult director behind this movie, was a lezzie. I say "was" because the guy who introduced the film told us she had died shortly after filming this and that the editing was done after her death. Looking her up on IMDb, I noticed that she shuffled off this mortal coil in 2002. So they certainly took their sweet time getting this thing together.
The film is about Ellie, an awkward and unfortunate-looking girl, who discovers a magic doodad that allows her to switch one of her physical features with someone else. However, in order to achieve this she must first murder the person whose feature she wishes to steal. She makes a couple of good kills giving herself a great complexion and ridding herself of her frightening buck-teeth but she looses the audience's sympathy when she murders a fellow high-schooler for her hair. I mean, I can understand bumping a couple people off to get glowing skin and a winning smile but slaying someone to get rid of your lady-mullet? Why not try treating yourself to a fancy salon first and only fall back on murder if absolutely necessary? However, I was glad to see that she did refrain from homicide when it came to her tits. She just did some bizarre thing with duct tape to make the twins pop out a little more. Girlfriend's not completely heartless.
