Mondo Trasho
At Last... A "Gutter Film"
Directed by John Waters
Produced by Dreamland
A deliberately transgressive, surreal underground comedy that revels in shock, absurdity, and taboo imagery without narrative coherence or moral framework.
A day in the lives of a hit-and-run driver and her victim, and the bizarre things that happen to them before and after they collide (sexual assault by a crazed foot-fetishist, visions of the Virgin Mary, strange chicken-foot grafting operations).
