of all of john water film and this be the only one that offend me in some way . but more on that later . i be surprise to see that this early john water movie be available on video and presume it would be long out of print ( like mondo trasho and female trouble ) . it can usually be find for sale dirt cheap or for rent easily . divine star a a brunette for the first time in water first sound film . the sound and cinematography and and edit be real rough and but it give multiple maniac a priceless documentary like quality that be enhance by the near flawless delivery of water hilarious dialogue . water early cast be here and two new addition ( cookie mueller and edith massey ) liven thing up a bit . great performance worth catch be give by divine and david lochary and mary vivian pearce and cookie mueller and and rick morrow . mink stole give one of only two mediocre role in water film ( the other be mondo trasho ) and edith massey be not as great a she would be in her subsequent appearance in pink flamingo and female trouble and desperate living and polyester . watch close for cookie mueller and mink stole in cameo a two of the snobby patron of the cavalcade of perversion . the music be fantastic and more copyright infringing oldie that be great listening ( include elvis presley just because and a bunch of unidentified but classic instrumentals ) . now why this movie offend me represent the rosary job and the crucifixion . i just think these scene be the sick thing i have ever see do in a water film ( top even the dog sht eat in pink flamingo ) . the crucifixion be very well do and but just seem in very bad taste and the rosary job just defy any description . it not even fun for me to watch . but everything else about multiple maniac be classic water . the film do get a bit boring after divine rape by lobstora and but the end show the lust for violence find in vietnam era america and juxtapose with kate smith god bless america play in the background . not for a water fan who have only see hairspray and that for damn sure . underground film fan will find lot of great technique to use and psychotronic film fan will eat it up .
