THIS WEEK: Mondo Trasho (1969), Multiple Maniacs (1970) and Pink Flamingos (1972)
We've decided that the best way to break up our Andy Milligan venture is by looking at a far more gleeful trash peddler. It's well past time that we dug into the Manson-obsessed cinematic underbelly of Baltimore and the inimitable John Waters.

Steve has finally bullied us into covering his matinee idol, Andy Milligan. Does he live up to his reputation as one of the worst filmmakers in the history of the medium? Well, he's certainly one of the angriest.
