Pink Flamingos - re:View


Pink Flamingos - re:View

Comments

I appreciate the appreciation for this movie but still don't get it. Eh, to each their own.

Rob

Hahaha my thoughts exactly! I've seen it up until the chicken scene, and I tapped out. haha

Leilani Joy

I'm infinitely amused at how angry so many of the youtube comments are about this episode.

casey

Ditto!

JAY: you know John Waters actually appeared in Jackass 2?

Unfortunately (or fortunately), I've blocked the chicken scene out of my mind, but if I remember the "incest" blowjob correctly, it's just a flaccid penis flopping around in Divine's mouth, more for show than anything actually pornographic.

I can see the value of the exercise of a film like Pink Flamingos. I'm not easily shocked and I'm all for the pushing further of boundaries but I'm really ambivalent about seeing it. I think I would like to watch it first with someone who has already seen it. For comfort, I guess? Also, I got to ask : nothing is simulated in this movie, right? So, the incest blow job and the chicken sex scene are real?

After watching this re:View I must say I have no intention of ever seeing the movie. And Jay watching something like this at 14? Wow.

Charlotte Sometimes

Well this is a Jay movie

atticus

Got rid of my copy after the chicken scene. Its horrible and shameful

I've watched Pink Flamingos exactly once in it's entirety. It was about 20 years ago at a rep theatre in my (then new to me) neighbourhood. I enjoyed this re:View since it reminded me of so many scenes that I'd tried to erase from my memory with drugs and alcohol. Thanks?

Check out HitB 34 around 26:30 :)

I really appreciated this episode! I'm now happy to know that this movie existed.

Right on!

Omar Rodriguez

i quote the "kill everyone now" sequence constantly. i haven't seen the full movie, but that part is goddamn funny.

Shappo

Well I won't be watching Pink Flamingos anytime soon, but I can't wait to recommend it to all my friends.

John Radoff

I watched this in prep for this re:view and I regretted it. I'm kind of giving Jay and Josh that side-eye look now.

David Anderson

Managed to find it on ebay for £17.50 which is about $17.50. Can't wait!

This was actually really engaging. Pink Flamingos seems like a lot of fun in a trashy way and it is gaining from its weird- and grossness.

Marvin Falz

I need to know if Mike has watched it and what he thinks about it! 😱

Andy

Love the Re:View, but I don't think I'll be watching Pink Flamingos any time soon.

Bryon Smedley

yay

I have a very busy day ahead but my reward late tonight is going to be my favourite Re:View duo talking about a fascinating filmmaker and movie. Thank you. Can't wait!!
