Outrageously Sick, Disgusting and Grotesque… But Also Funny
The filthiest person alive, Divine, is using the codename Babs Johnson and living in a trailer in the woods with her retarded mother Eddie (Edith Massey), who loves eggs; her mad hippie son Crackers (Danny Mills); and her mate Cotton (Mary Vivian Pearce). The envious couple Connie (Mink Stole) and Raymond Marble (David Lochary), who abduct and impregnate female hitchhikers to sell their babies to gay and lesbian couples, using the money to invest in heroin and sell in schools, hire Cookie (Cookie Mueller) to have sex with Crackers and spy Divine to compete for the title of “the filthiest people alive”. When the competition begins, Connie and Raymond Marble learn why Divine has this title.

The underground “Pink Flamingos” is outrageously sick, disgusting and grotesque… but also funny. John Waters’ intention is certainly to shock the audiences and is certainly very well succeeded. The bizarre characters present some of the most scatological and gross scenes I have ever seen, like Divine chewing excrement of dog, or Crackers “singing” with his anus, and there is no limit for the sick mind of John Waters. The viewer has to have empty stomach to see the whole movie. In the Extras of the DVD, John Waters presents deleted scenes, inclusive with the fate of Cookie. The trailer used to promote the film in 1972 is hilarious, since it does not show any scene, but people being interviewed about the movie. My vote is five.

Title (Brazil): “Pink Flamingos”

The Waters Masterpiece
In 1971, a legend was born. An outrageous, blasphemous freak of nature which shocked disgusted, and oddly reflected the times. In 1971, John Waters would perfect his B-movie making skills with his colorful, flamboyant, mean-spirited epic that would ultimately ensure Divine as THE cult icon of the 70’s, and push the boundaries of bad taste as far as they would go. This is your worst nightmare made into the greatest cult comedy of all time. This is Pink Flamingos, the undisputed filthiest piece of filth in the history of film.

I bought this atrocity of a film years ago. Even as an obsessive fan of B-cinema, I was completely oblivious to it’s reputation, I mean, I seriously had no idea what I was about to watch. I’ll never forget those first words uttered, ” It’s 10:30, Babs, Babs, why isn’t the egg man here”?

At that moment, I hadn’t the vaguest idea as to what was next. All I knew was that the possibilities were endless. There was no telling how the next hour and 40 minutes could have gone. I just stared in awe, with jaw firmly on floor, and witnessed an epic battle. A battle of filth vs. evil.

Through the ages, certain questions have plagued humankind. Questions like, where do we come from? What the hell’s the deal with the Bermuda Triangle? And, Who’s filthier, Divine and her entourage, or Connie and Raymond Marble? Actually, no one has ever asked that. Everyone already knows the answer.

A random, and might I add, a rather unrealistic story, where a lot of things go shamelessly unexplained. Things such as, why would the Marbles assume they are filthier than Divine just because they kidnap girls and have them impregnated by the butler and sell the babies to lesbians? That’s not that filthy… it’s just plain mean.

Of course, there’s much more to it than that. Soon, the Marbles set they’re sights on Divine and her entourage. Once they get under Divine’s skin, we are forced to sit through castrations, public exposure, incest, cannibalism, shrimping, unhealthy obsessions, bestiality. The list goes on, and on… and on.

Not exactly an organized contest, mind you, but rather a not so well-thought-out, yet devious plot by 2 jealous perverts, to dethrone a Queen. This time, Waters holds nothing back, and Divine is the very definition of outlandish. There is truly something to offend even the crudest of individuals. I love this movie.

Once or twice every decade, a B-movie director comes along and creates something either so bad, so hilarious, or in this case, so disgusting, that it transcends B-entertainment all together. Pink Flamingos is just not what you would expect. An understatement? Of course, but true, nonetheless. A look into the mind of a demented man-child with a rebellious streak, a sick, yet unique sense of humor, and some seriously odd friends. Pink Flamingos is more than just the Waters masterpiece. Pink Flamingos is John Waters, which is kind of an intimidating thought. I don’t care if you thought Combat Shock was funny, or that Peter Jackson’s Dead-Alive could’ve used more blood. If you haven’t seen Pink Flamingos… then, you just haven’t seen Pink Flamingos. Nothing could have prepared you for this one. Some years later, John Waters would write a script for a sequel, entitled Flamingos Forever. A movie which was to be distributed by Troma, and would see the return of Divine, Cotton, Crackers, and Miss Edie. The unfortunate death of Edith Massey, among other problems, would forever prevent this dream come true from happening. In 1971, Waters was king and trash was in, but in a perfect world, Flamingos would have definitely lasted forever. 10/10
