The valley girls have entered the apocalypse—and late-stage capitalism better watch its back. 🧟‍♀️🛍️

In this episode of Marxists at the Movies, we take a radioactive deep dive into 1984’s Night of the Comet, a cult classic where mall culture meets mass extinction. What happens when consumerism collapses and teenage girls inherit the Earth? We explore themes of feminine resilience, Cold War paranoia, government bio-violence, and the eerie freedom that emerges after societal implosion.

Also: should Reggie and Sam unionize?

For our final Pride Month 2025 installment, Marxists at the Movies heads to Buffalo—by way of Broadway—with a deep dive into Stepping Out (1991). Liza Minnelli leads a stacked cast of queer-coded legends in this criminally overlooked tap-dancing gem. From its quietly radical ensemble energy to its New Wave rejection of glamor in favor of community, this film isn’t just feel-good—it’s anti-capitalist at its core.

They were never supposed to be stars. But they showed up anyway.
