Ugliness and demeasure in cinema (106 movies items)

" In Waters cinema, the extreme theatricality of the characters plays with grotesque. One of the most carnavalesque of Waters movies."

" By far my favourite John Waters film. I absolutely love this movie! It's trashy and vile with a fantastical plot - but the characters - OMG, the characters. Totally off the wall. I know dialogue from this movie like we all do from Monty Python's "Life of Brian" - it's an experience you won't forget :)"
