Do yourself a great favor and visit http://www.somethingweird.com/. Offering a catalog of the most bizarre efforts ever committed to celluloid, this place offers any number of films made famous by "Mystery Science Theater 3000", along with a far larger number either too explicit for or not up to the standards of that program. Every form of exploitation film and -ism you can imagine, and some that were new to me. It's not even necessary to buy anything since several hundred of the offerings have previews which more than adequately summarize the films ("Axe" being a personal favorite....we are perhaps fortunately spared previews of the Army hygiene films).

The largest collection of guilty pleasures I've ever seen, and lots of laughs, along with countless "what in the heck were they thinking?" moments. If you don't find something on this site personally offensive.....you're not looking closely enough. But I'd bet you'll have one heck of a time tearing yourself away.

I'd pick anything featuring the late and great Edith "The Egg Lady" Massey. Although I enjoyed the tastelessness of many John Waters films, for me the apex was "Polyester" which I believe was her last film before her death. Watching her and her chauffeur, Heinz, drive Divine's "Francine Fishpaw" around was hilarious. "Oh pur, pur Francine, you need to get out more. Let's have a picnic, Francine. Come Heinz!":)
