Amazon.co.uk Review
This is the movie that made John Waters famous, and quite possibly the film that made bad taste cool. Yes, Virginia, a large transvestite actually eats dog faeces as a kind of dizzying denouement to this frequently illogical and intentionally disgusting movie, but by the time that happens, you’re already numb … and you’ve possibly laughed to the point of losing bladder control.
The plot revolves around two vile families laying claim to the title “The Filthiest People Alive”. You’ve got pregnant women in pits, you’ve got grown men getting sexual satisfaction from chickens, you’ve got people licking furniture to perform trailer-park voodoo and you’ve got classic lines like: “Oh my God! The couch … it … it rejected you!”
Waters, who went on to direct genuine pop-culture classics such as Hairspray and Serial Mom, made this celluloid sideshow with one aim–to make a name for himself. It worked. He does have a genuine eye for filmmaking (when the trailer burns down, you feel the white heat of Divine’s pain and anger). On the other hand, you won’t notice any disclaimers about stunt doubles and animals not being mistreated. There weren’t, and they were. Welcome to the filthiest film in the world. –Grant Balfour
