Buy/Rent Serial Mom!

Director John Waters puts a twist on the everyday mediocrity of suburban life in the domestically devious Serial Mom. See Kathleen Turner like never before as Beverly Sutphin, the seemingly perfect homemaker who will stop at nothing to rid the neighborhood of anyone failing to live up to her moral code. It’s a killer comedy that will take you over the edge with laughter!

Only John Waters would make Patty Hearst the "offending" juror.

"No, please! Fashion has changed!!" 😢🙏

[darkmatterburger]

The fact that that’s patty Hearst is insane

This movie actually predicts this whole era of mainstream loving serial killers and criminals even though we have proof and facts on their crimes... It is actually foreshadowing this whole "image over facts" system we live in right now.

I watched this movie with my friend and her grandmother. The grandmother was aghast at that juror wearing white shoes after Labor Day.

The fact that Sam Waterston was around 53 years old when this was filmed is beyond remarkable. He looks much, much younger.

I had to check my math a few times.
