EP 198: Angel (1984)

Angel follows Molly, a 15-year-old straight-A high school student by day and a streetwise sex worker by night. When a serial killer starts targeting people in her orbit, she teams up with a gruff, glass-eyed detective and her crazy circle of Hollywood Boulevard characters, including an old cowboy, a crossdresser, and a yoyo-ing Charlie Chaplin, to fight back. The film mixes sleazy thriller elements with an oddly sincere found-family vibe, but is less exploitative than its premise suggests, playing the contrast between routine normalcy and bursts of sudden violence.
