i saw serial mom for the first time a a fairly young kid and and think it be pretty good . i have just see it for the first time a an adult and and it turn out that i would forget just how good this film really be . it certainly not to everyone taste and and if you can not handle high camp and you definitely do not want to see this while but if you like your film wild and wicked and serial mom be a treat indeed . the film follow a slasher plot line and but it clear that director john water do not want to merely make a slash flick . the film be a parody of life a a housewife and the medium and modern society in general while with a heavy dosage of sick humour and a very unique mean streak run throughout . serial mom be the sort of film that put a smile on your face and and it follow the story of a not quite so normal american mother . while her fellow housewife be cook dinner and clean the house and beverly r. sutphin be out dispatch people that have get on hers and her family nerve in a variety of nasty and yet hilarious and way . her kid think it cool and and her husband be duly worried . kathleen turner take the lead role and and do an excellent job of perform in a serious and yet jokey way while which do the film no end of favour on the parody front . she look the part and act the part . and really and i cant think of a good middle age actress to take the lead in this film . the support cast and which include matthew lillard and ricki lake and be good while but it the director that the real star of the show . john water have make a name for himself by create odd and twisted film and and although i haven not see a great deal of them while serial mom be his best as far a i be concern . it one of those film that constantly make you laugh ( provide you have get a sick sense of humour ) and while poke fun at society and offend all the right people all at once . i love originality in movie and and this really be one unique film . the ninety saw the release of lot of obscure social commentary that be lose under film like schindler list and fight club and and serial mom and along with francois ozon sitcom and be one of the best under the radar film of the decade . it not a film that everyone will like and but everyone should see it just in case .
