FILM TALK: The former king of camp, John Waters, appears live in person tonight, bringing his one-man "vaudeville" show to the Castro. Tonight's show focuses "on Waters' early negative artistic influences and his fascination with true crime, exploitation films, fashion lunacy, and the extremes of the contemporary art world, this joyously devious monologue is a must-see for Waters' fans." Find out more here. In all seriousness, folks, this filmmaker is genius in person. Do check him out if you can.

To those who won't be attending the Castro Theater, check out Jeff Garlin's documentary on John Waters called This Filthy World. It's brilliant and entertaining.
