Posers

Directed by Katie Tallo
Canada, 2003 (fiction, 80 minutes, colour, English)
Also known as "Vipères"

Film Description:
"Posers is a sexy thriller in the 'girl power' genre. A gang of bar chicks comes unglued after the women commit a murder and trigger an unknown killer's wrath. Love, Adria, Vonny and Ruth are gal pals dancing in a disco. They ambush Love's enemy-du-jour and brutally beat her. This sets off a chain of events that leads to Love's death. Distorted by guilt, Ruth builds a shrine in Love's memory, Vonny deteriorates into paranoia, and Adria sees ghosts. All hell breaks loose when Love's body turns up and the real killer is revealed. Laced with black humour, the film is an unapologetic portrayal of the female gang dynamic. Posers is a story of jealousy, vengeance, detachment and love—in all its twisted forms."
