Beyond cheap, Each Time I Kill packs a wealth of DIY drollery in the short, silly story of a geeky girl (Tiffany Paralta) who discovers a magic amulet granting her the ability to steal the features of whomever she murders.

Directed by longtime music filmmaker Jem Cohen (best known for the Fugazi film Instrument), Mousetrap cozies up to the aging band as they bust out an hour of post-punk glory, complete with that most punk of instruments: a standup bass. Peppered throughout are shots of the outside world and the city overrun by squeakyclean right-wingers and Reagan stickers, all while a band that once recorded a song called "Stupid Americans" thrashes inside.

Her bandmates, drummer Maria "Poni" Silver and bassist Jeremy "Jem" Cohen, are in New York and Los Angeles, and Hames has found herself in the rare position of being alone. "In fact," says Hames, "this is the first time I've been by myself in - God, I can't even remember how long.

Now, with half a billion dollars in new cultural facilities, designed by some of today's premier architects, set to open in the next year, word is sure to spread to everyone else. The debuts kicked off last month with the reopening of an expanded Walker Art Center.
