“Priscilla & the Pink Flamingos“

  • Summary

  • EPISODE 026: DOUBLE FEATURES & TRILOGIES

    Featuring: Pink Flamingos (1972), The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994)

    While centering the word “disgust”, Ryan and Kevin explore drag queen characters and the traditions of rage bait in a special double feature highlighting John Waters’ “Pink Flamingos” and Stephan Elliott’s “The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert”. Ryan detests Waters’ deplorable Trash Cinema (probably as Waters intended), while Kevin vocalizes distaste for the inherent racism and transphobia laden in “Priscilla”. In search for cinematic context, Ryan and Kevin ultimately settle into a conversation about the similarities of Blaxploitation and Queer Exploitation cinema, and how “Pink Flamingos” relates to contemporary provocateurs such as Harmony Korine.
