Pink Flamingos

Dir: John Waters
Star: Divine, David Lochary, Mink Stole, Edith Massey

[3] What can you say about a film where the most memorable moment is a female impersonator eating a freshly dropped dog turd?? Blegh! Difficult to believe this is directed by the same man as Hairspray, since it's a very amateur film yet not without style. It doesn't quite gel as a whole; unlike Russ Meyer's best pics, where the sex does seem to fit in - here, we have a chunk of plot, then a totally irrelevant bit, and now a scene to SHOCK you!

5/10
