The trashiest white trash movie ever is easily “Gummo”.  “Starring”(?) Chloe Sevigny and a fellow cast of relative unknowns, Gummo follows a group of people through a series of fictionalized (I sure hope) vignettes taking place in the backwater town of Xenia, Ohio.

The topics touched on are not for the faint of heart. 

Just one excerpt from the wiki entry:

Also included are scenes involving a drunk man (played by Harmony Korine) flirting with a gay midget; a man prostituting his down syndrome sister to Solomon, Dot and her sisters encountering a child molester, a pair of twins selling candy door-to-door, which they steal the money from, and two skinhead brothers slap-fighting. A short interlude features blurry images of people in corpse paint engaging in some sort of ceremony involving the skull of a horned animal, possibly a goat.

The feel good movie of the year, obviously.

Well, Gummo director Harmony Korine is back with a new feature film that sounds far more appealing:

Mister Lonely is out today, and concerns a Scottish village of celebrity impersonators. “I wanted to see James Dean tending sheep, the Pope doing dishes, Sammy Davis, Jr. smoking a joint, and Marilyn’s dress floating up in the woods,” the director says. The results? An often hilarious, sometimes dreamy film, replete with images like nuns flying through the air on BMX bikes. Diego Luna’s sweetness—and sweet dance moves—make him a perfect Michael Jackson impersonator, particularly when he and his beloved (Marilyn Monroe, played by Samantha Morton) perform for a group of doped-up seniors at an old folks home in Paris

Nuns on BMX?  Sign me up.
