Tonight FYB is Proud to Present John Water’s Black Comedy Horror Film “MULTIPLE MANIACS”!!!
The Movie Cult Classic MULTIPLE MANIACS was Composed, Filmed, Edited, Written, Produced, and Directed by Indie Film Icon and the so called KING OF FILTH John Waters!!! MULTIPLE MANIACS one of Waters’s Earlier Films and, it was also His Second Feature Length Film. Waters Became Prominent in the 1970’s for His Transgressive Cult Films.
Waters Early Films were CAMPY Movies that Presented EXAGGERATED Characters in OUTRAGEOUS Situations with HYPERBOLIC DIALOGUE. They also Railed Hard Against the Boundaries of Conventional Propriety and Movie Censorship. Waters Films have Landed Him in Court 53 Times on Obscenity Charges during His Early Career. Waters has Stated that He takes an Equal amount of Joy and Influence from High-Brow “Art” Films and Sleazy Exploitation Films alike. The Title MULTIPLE MANIACS is Waters Tribute to The Godfather of Gore Herschel Gordon Lewis (Who’s Movie THE WIZARD OF GORE was Happily Posted Previously on FYB!)
