"I Wake Up with a Flower in my Hand" is a 25-year anniversary remix of "Killer Janitors." Using all original footage and adding no special effects, the new cut focuses on how the best friends saw each other and understood themselves within the context of their friendship, high school, home lives, and a world beyond their small-town confinements—felt but not yet touched.

In Magnetic Resonance, a cicada falls to its death and New Wave musician Marc Almond falls to the feet of Clint Ruin; a tooth stands in for a brain tumor and the naked legs of the filmmakers on a sheet-less mattress stand in for Almond and Ruin’s performance on stage. "Castrated" bodies become conduits of attraction.

Crystal Lake is about a group of young girls who take over a skate park, forming an all-female force field on the half pipe.
