Mondo Trasho *** (1969, Divine, David Lochary, Mink Stole, Mary Vivian Pearce) – Classic Movie Review 4101
A bizarre, insane 1969 early macabre comedy feature from John Waters, the Pope of Trash, who shows that anyone can make a movie, provided you’ve got some colourful friends. It is his first feature after […]
Cry-Baby **** (1990, Johnny Depp, Ricki Lake, Amy Locane) – Classic Movie Review 2095

Director John Waters’s 1988 hit Hairspray is his breakthrough movie, finally leaving micro-budget shockers behind an going for the mainstream. Who’d have thought, a John Waters movie with a PG certificate! It’s a fabulously campy, […]
Pecker *** (1998, Edward Furlong, Christina Ricci, Bess Armstrong) – Classic Movie Review 1048
An amiable if rather obvious 1998 satirical comedy from writer-director John Waters, who tones down his trademark bad taste and doesn’t have quite enough big laughs or big charm to put in its place. Edward Furlong stars […]
