This is pure John Waters... at times I read in my head with the narrator voice from Pink Flamingos. It's nefarious, hilarious carjacking, wig stealing, talking-penis-having, bouncing chaos that does not let up.

Like many John Waters movies, he does eventually reach a point of screaming hot crassness that jumps some kind of shark... maybe it's just when the reader reaches a point of crystallization within the filth and everything beyond that exists in a fever dream.

Recommended for humor and pure, unbridled ridiculousness.
