Revue de Presse :
"The unique and often outlandish films of John Waters, including Pink Flamingos, Cry-Baby and Pecker, require a specifically greased lens if they are to be critically examined. Michelle Moore and Brian Brems have marshalled a stellar troupe of contributors who dismantle Waters' films from a variety of angles, from Waters' 'film family' and identity (including his own), to tropes such as comedy, celebrity culture, trash and melodrama. This is a highly enjoyable and smart book that combines intellectual rigor with the necessary flavour and smell that befits Waters' oeuvre. ― Ernest Mathijs, University of British Columbia, author of Cult Cinema, and 100 Cult Films.
