I just saw this yesterday. I thought Killer Condom couldn't be dethroned as the worst I've ever seen... Geez. This one takes the cake. Why isn't there a review for it here? This has to be a landmark in trash filmmaking.

I know where a laserdisk of this is to be had, but keep waiting in hopes that it will come out on DVD.  Considering just how offensive the film is, its non-release is mystifying.

This definitely IS a landmark in trash filmmaking! I saw it a couple of years ago and was left speech-less....dammit, for the last scene alone it belongs in the Museum for Modern Art.
And by the way, its going to be released on DVD in a couple of weeks together with several other John Waters flicks.

Yep.  I liked it. Except for the very final scene.  I could take the entire movie in stride...hell, found it very funny...but that final scene just stabs me in the throat...

YES-MAN IT IS PRETTY RAUNCHY. The @!#$ lip-syncing to that oldies "Bird-the word" song almost made me puke (oh wait that was every scene in the movie).

"hold these goddamn chickens!!"
Dude, if you didn't like Pink Flamingos there must be something wrong with you

Ha ha ha! Well i guess it's not my cup of tea, but believe me, i'm pretty open minded when it comes it comes to what's put on celluloid. I could name you a list of gore films i love but there's not enough space here. If you wanna watch something really disgusting checkout the Spanish, gore film: AFTERMATH. It's only 30 minutes long, the director's name's Nacho Cerde, and believe me-you've never seen anything like it. Don't watch with mommy.

I don't know that much about gore, but the store I go to has something called "Violent @!#$" that seems pretty bestial.  and I like "Lucker, the necropholgus" just for the title
