      You can’t completely remove the goth from 1990s Fairuza Balk. It’s literally impossible. Vicki is sort of goth through a redneck prism.

      You’d be surprised at how similar they are. There’s even a term for it called ya’llternative.

      Goth chicks like country boys for some reason.

    Even that four-year-old is now almost 30.

    I only ever saw the DVD / movie poster where it’s just him standing there, I never saw this variant before this post myself. But looking it up seems like both were used throughout the release history.
