Mark J. Norton and Jerry Vile
The all time king of cinematic grossness, John Waters, is back at it again. Waters, who wrote, produced and directed cult favorites Female Trouble, Multiple Maniacs, Pink Flamingos, and Desperate Living has just begun post-production work on his newest shocker Polyester. It stars Divine, Edith Massey, Tab Hunter, David Samson, Ken Kinq, Stiv Bators, and Mink Stole.
Waters, in a phone interview, called Polyester 'a comedy about alcoholism and divorce.. .a love story gone quite wrong.. .Father Knows Best gone berserk. It's about a family in suburbia and every awful and disgusting thing that can possibly happen to them.'
The movie was shot in 32 days for a mere $300,000. Waters' lastfilm, Desperate Living, was budgeted at $65,000. In these days of excessive spending on movies he's to be commended.
Just where does Polyester take place?
