*Late Night Costume Party: Prize for Best “Bad Taste” Costume!
Directed by John Waters
1970, USA, 96 min
Prize for Best “Bad Taste” Costume @ Late Night Costume Party on November 12!
Cult legend John Waters’ (Pink Flamingos, Hairspray) hilarious unavailable-for-decades second feature comes to theaters at long last, replete with all manner of depravity, from robbery to murder to one of cinema’s most memorably blasphemous moments. Made on a shoestring budget in Baltimore, with Waters taking on nearly every technical task, this gleeful mockery of the peace-and-love ethos of its era features the Cavalcade of Perversion, a traveling show put on by a troupe of misfits whose shocking proclivities are topped only by those of their leader: the glammer-than-glam, larger-than-life Divine, who’s out for blood after discovering her lover’s affair. Starring Waters’ beloved regular cast the Dreamlanders (including David Lochary, Mary Vivian Pearce, Mink Stole, Edith Massey, and Cookie Mueller). Multiple Maniacs is an anarchist masterwork from an artist who has doggedly tested the limits of taste for decades.

Hue Quilted Windowpane / Directed By Lasha Mowchun, 2016, Canada, 4 min / If you can’t find true love in reality, maybe you should try your imagination! This pop art gem follows a lonely woman who finally finds love when Elvis Presley appears in her pantyhose. Maybe imaginary love is better than the real thing.
