4. Pink Flamingos - Divine Eats Fresh Dog Crap For Real
Still, that's nothing on the stomach-curdling authenticity of John Waters' controversial yet oddly acclaimed Pink Flamingos, which features one of the most infamous climactic scenes in movie history, where protagonist Babs (played by iconic drag queen Divine) eats a lump of crap that has been just recently expelled from the bowels of a canine. Divine later told the press, "I followed that dog around for three hours just zooming in on its a**hole", proving if nothing else her insane commitment to Waters' insane vision. The scuzzy, ultra low-fi quality of the film only adds to the griminess of what we're watching. We feel like we're seeing something that's real, and something that we're not supposed to - and that's probably because both of these things are true. Divine agreed to eat the crap simply because "it was in the script", though asked her mother to never, ever watch the movie. Could she not have asked the same of us?
