In all honesty, any of John Waters' early movies could have made it on here.

Whether you're watching Multiple Maniacs or Female Trouble, the transgressive filmmaker made his name on stories that pushed the boundaries of taste - but none are quite as infamous as Pink Flamingos.

This legendary movie stars Divine as a woman trying to prove to the world that she's the "filthiest person alive". How does one acquire that title you ask? Well, it involves performing lovely, wholesome acts like eating dog poop found in the middle of the road (which Divine did for real in the scene in question, by the way).

The entire flick features scene after scene designed to make you throw up your hands and admit defeat. Whether that's seeing some dude show his entire ass to camera, watching characters have rough sex and killing some chickens in the process or the general murder and debauchery on display, Waters always finds something new to shock you with in his variety bag of tricks.
