Pink Flamingos
An exercise in poor taste.
Directed by John Waters
Produced by Dreamland
A deliberately transgressive, maximally obscene underground comedy that weaponizes shock value and depravity as both satire and spectacle.
Notorious Baltimore criminal and underground figure Divine goes up against Connie & Raymond Marble, a sleazy married couple who make a passionate attempt to humiliate her and seize her tabloid-given title as "The Filthiest Person Alive".
