John Waters & William Castle Have A Baby!, 18 August 2005
10/10
Author: magicshow-1 from United States

Mary Woronov! A one-eyed monster! Sex, blood, and Jesus too! Who could ask for more? I am a video store owner and I urge all video stores to stock this movie, especially if you have customers who like the classic Hammer or Castle films, as well as John Waters. I have been a huge Mary Woronov fan ever since I saw "Eating Raoul" twenty years ago and she does not disappoint. In these times of religious extremism (in the U.S.), it's good to see a movie deal with the real issues of spirituality and the sanctity of religious symbols, most importantly in regard to the very,very personal pleasure of prayer. This is a great midnight movie. All you need is a six pack or two, a pizza or two, and a lot of good friends. Let the clock strike twelve and turn the lights down and enjoy.
