I think I am a little less sane after watching this film. John Waters (Serial Mom) directs this extremely low-budget and incredibly perverse film that baits the lunacy of the American middle class, and contrasts it with a society where values, humanity, and empathy are valued less than wicked monarchal rule. Don't really no where to begin; all the scenes seem improvised around a basic storyline involving a middle class American woman (a "social climber") who, with the help of her black maid, murders her husband and then flees to the town of Mortville, where all citizens must obey the will (however pervse it may be) of the Queen.

This is one-of-a-kind stuff, for fans of the most perverse and disturbing cinema imaginable. Beer and company are recommended.
