Don't Miss The Worst Lindsay Lohan Movie Ever, This Weekend On Starz!

Posted by Bryan Christian

 

Time was, back in the day, cable networks were ashamed to unspool miserable failure-slash-camp classics like Showgirls and Body of Evidence, showing them once or twice in prime time and then forever relegating them to 3AM. (Perfect for clandestine taping!)

But apparently in these, the days of no shame, that frown has been turned way upside down. Hence Starz's campaign to get you to subject yourself to I Know Who Killed Me, the stripper noir trainwreck generally considered by future historians to be the first of many nadirs in Lindsay Lohan 200-year long, cybercrank enhanced career. We don't have Starz, and frankly, have no interest in this movie, which sort of looks like it was something we would have hated in 1996 so why would we watch it now, exactly? So this ad does nothing for us. (Also, we feel LiLo's strength is in light comedy, but that's another story/blog.)

However, perhaps you're considering making the important life decision to lose a couple hours to this movie? Tell ya what: how about if we show you what a "Lindsay Lohan" in an "I Know Who Killed Me sex scene" looks like... and you can make an informed decision this election year.

    Lindy Parker has worked as a ghostwriter, editor, dance instructor and a purveyor of dreams, one beer at a time. She loves Charles Dickens and Gabriel Garcia Marquez and also, straight-to-video releases with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. It's possible she reads more teen fiction than she should. She hails from Los Angeles, her hometown and soul mate, but she lives in Brooklyn, the fling she'll never forget.

    Olivia Purnell left Ohio for sunny Los Angeles; then found that she couldn’t ignore New York City’s call, and brought herself to Brooklyn where she has worked with GenArt, BlackBook, the School of American Ballet, and finished an M.A. in Creative Writing from N.Y.U. She loves one-liners with sting and hates the stench of the subway in the summer. That said, she can’t get enough of either.

    Jake Kalish is a freelance journalist and humorist whose work has appeared in Details, Maxim, Stuff, New York Press, Spin, Blender, Men's Fitness, Poets and Writers, and Playboy, among other publications. He is also the author of Santa vs. Satan: The Official Compendium of Imaginary Fights.

    Ben Kallen is an entertainment, health and humor writer who's been lectured to by Sidney Poitier, argued with by Lea Thompson and smiled at by Jennifer Connelly. He's the coauthor of The No S Diet and author of The Year in Weird, along with hundreds of magazine articles. He lives near the beach in Los Angeles, just like the gang from Three's Company.

    Nicole Ankowski has lived in Ohio, Oakland, and on the high plains of South Dakota, but is now proud to call Brooklyn home. She wrote for alternative weekly papers in the first two states, and tried to learn Lakota in the last. (The vowels can be tricky.) She just earned her MFA in Creative Writing and has been published in Beeswax literary journal. She is unable to resist good writing or bad TV.
