Freeway 2 (1998)

Fresh off Freeway (1996), a modern retelling of the Little Red Riding Hood story, director Matthew Bright further develops his interest in adults-only kid’s tales with Freeway 2: Confessions of a Trickbaby (1999). Modeled after Hansel and Gretel, the salacious story stars Natasha Lyonne as an armed bandit who manages to finagle an escape from jail with the aid of her lesbian serial-killer cellmate (María Celedonia). The bad girls follow a depraved breadcrumb trail of sex and violence, until a transgendered nun (Vincent Gallo) decides to teach them a lesson. There are some pretty serious sex scenes, and a brief flash of is-it-real manmeat, but this movie left us wishing for a bit more male sweetness in the house of candy.
