“I’m gonna get an abortion and I can’t wait!”
John Waters was born to assault and unravel the post-nuclear family in the funniest ways imaginable and god gave him the perfect tools to do so in Divine and company. Todd. Elmer. Cuddles. Dexter. LuLu. Heintz. Bobo. Everyone here dials it to 11 and delivers cartoonish levels of menace in this parody of the suburbs.
