MCT:July 9, 2008"This is the Carnival of Perversion!" By far John Waters' strangest movie, and not directly on DVD yet, Maniacs is sick, twisted, and somehow aided with black and white visuals. His Dreamland players get to shine as drugged out, sex crazed cracy people. Divine the huge drag quween is introduced, and later a lobster monster has its way with her.

"I love you so fucking much I could shit."
There is one thing that has made it so that I cannot possibly rate this film any lower than what I have, or, indeed, what the film truly deserves.

Now this is somewhat of a low rating for a favourite, but even though I don't think the film is the greatest piece of cinema, it doesn't it can't be my favourite. What really makes this worth while is it's sheer uniqueness and rawness. For any fan of John Waters, you can tell that in this film , he's not holding back.
You can tell that as a young filmmaker he's not yet comfortable with the medium, but he really is getting there, and it has amazing Waters staples in it that you'll see reappear in his later works, but others you'll never see again.
The structure drags at time but it's a pretty lean movie so it doesn't become boring, and kind of lends itself to a greek tragedy of sorts.
So basically, this is will not blow you away in filmmaking, but it will blow you away in just experiencing John Waters un-restrained. -

A sad story of the character Divine. The church rosary scene will make your hair stand up on end and the interpretation of the last supper was hilarious!
If I were to go out it would be by a firing squad, frothing at the mouth wearing a fur coat!
