Filmmaker John Waters is perhaps best known for his campy 1988 film, 'Hairspray,' which spawned a long-running Broadway musical and subsequent new film version. But it's Waters' decades of off-beat, highly original independent films set in his hometown of Baltimore that have earned him cult status. In his films, as wall as through acting, writing, and visual art, Waters explores the macabre, kitsch, and the joyfully trashy with an artist's eye.
