Pink Flamingos is consider one of the greatest cult films that deserve to at least one viewing for any movie-goer. First released in 1972, directed by John Waters and star a drag Divine and Waters's Dreamlanders, which are those actors who he frequently use and star mostly in his films.
This film is notorious for its blunt portrayal of taboo act, nudity and bad taste. Don't get me wrong. This is not a straight film that fail artistically, but instead it is mean to be made as bad taste and down right campy.
The plot is simple and ultimately stupid, two criminal families fighting over a title called "The Filthiest Person Alive". This is not a title honored by a certain organization, but just a gag by a local tabloid when making a story of Divine, the main character or protagonist in this film. To prevent disappointment, the so call criminal families are not Mafia families. There is no wise guy dress in expensive Italian suit, or tommy gun or and Don. This two families are made of perverts, and the crime they commit are those that will other prison inmates to wallop and bitch them, if ever they ever get caught.

From left: Divine's Mother, Divine and her travelling companion.If some think the Genuine Pigs series are the grossest thing ever made into video, I think most probably they never seen Pink Flamingos. Please do not get the wrong idea again. Although this film has a certain degree of violence, but it is below the level presented in the Japanese series. That makes this film gross is, sigh...
- Divine is a fat and ugly Ah-gua
- She have a very disgusting mum
- Her son having sex with his date while crushing a chicken in between them
- Divine's rival send her shit as birthday present
- Divine's friends give her among others, a pigs head as birthday present
- She have a very disgusting mum
- Her son having sex with his date while crushing a chicken in between them
- Divine's rival send her shit as birthday present
- Divine's friends give her among others, a pigs head as birthday present
- One of Divine's friend lip sync a song using his anus
- The sex of Divine's rival family is just disgusting (they lick each other's toe)
- Divine pay back her rival by licking and dropping saliva on their home and furniture
- Divine give oral sex to her son etc
and the most shocking, disgusting, grossest scene is in the final scene, where Divine eats a freshly pooed dog shit. Given the pathetic budget of the film, I don't think there is any special effect involve. It should be a real thing.

The Genuine Pig series excel in their special effects on blood and gore, but that's it. But Pink Flamingo presents and imprint their disgusting act deeply in viewers' mind. The worst will be the shit eating scene. People still can stand watching a person get decapitated with blood spraying out, but eat shit? Real dog shit?
But anyway, it is still entertaining cause the campiness and over bad taste is sure worth a laugh.
Don't believe it? Here's the scene, WARNING: IT'S REALLY GROSS!
