Details

College student Tracy (Laura Lee Black) has just received an assignment to write a report on her favorite film genre. In her research she discovers a book, now Tracy is taken into three interlocking tales of the unexpected. First in THE VAT, two women (Jenny Coulter / Rodney Horn) are harassed by a religious fanatic (Angie Keeling) about their worldly ways. When the bible thumping hypocrite threatens violence, chaos takes it's toll. Next in BIG DEBBIE, a robust woman (Rodney Horn) is abandoned at the altar, she runs into two guys that use her to fulfill their odd sexual fetish. When one accidentally dies, they're forced to get rid of the body... the only problem: a woman on the edge (Rachel Stout) witnesses the ditching and blackmails them into killing her cheating girlfriend (Kelli Ellis). Finally in INGLOURIOUS BITCHES, a quirky pair of female vigilantes (Douglas Conner / Brian Dorton) use an app on a cellphone to track down and murder sex offenders.

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Char Hardin 5 Out of 5"Trashology...it's a raunchy funny good time loaded with perversity...a guilty pleasure for sure!" Char HardinThis is the funniest, raunchiest most perverse good time, I have seen in a very long time. When it says Trashology is a tribute film to the man who gave us Hairspray and Pink Flamingos...Mr. John Waters, it isn't making a false claim. IT is what it says it is and so much more. Another reviewer has said that "John Waters would be proud" and yet another said it is a "Love letter to John Waters", these are not false statements to build hype...TRASHOLOGY is the MOTHER OF ALL TRIBUTE FILMS to the ideals and wicked sense of humor of Waters. What is it? May Contains Spoilers...but not detailed spoilers.Tracy (Laura Lee Black) is taking a collegiate class on film making and has received an assignment to do a report on her favorite genre. Her friend wants to do Horror, but Tracy has stumbled upon a book called "Trashology" and she is thinking about "Trash Cinema". The book consists of three interlocking tales that make up the book. Each one is loaded with hysterics and starts off with "The Vat". "The Vat" is about old woman named Beatrice whose husband had dug a hole in the back yard for the leftover oatmeal his wife was known to make more than needed. Beatrice for years has thrown leftovers into the vat. One afternoon during a living visit with friends Laura and Claudia, something goes wrong and one of the women ends up dead and tossed into the vat.Rodney Horn as Big Debbie and Douglas Conner as George The second story is "Big Debbie" who is the daughter of Laura mentioned in the first story. Debbie has been left at the altar on her wedding day. She has a chance encounter that leads to accidentally "squashing" a man to death and black mail. The third story "Inglourious Bitches" about Katrina and Melissa two girlfriends fed up with the injustice of pedophiles being released back into society after a hand slapping from the courts. A unique phone app leads to the girls own brand of justice as the bodies start to pile up. I love where the girls end up by the close of their story.Tracy has her own demons and the creative way to man's heart is always through his stomach. Let me just say...you thought Minnie Jackson's chocolate pie in the southern drama, 'The Help' was something else...wait until you get a taste of Tracy's chocolate pie!As soon as Trashology is released on DVD, I cannot urge you enough to rush out and buy it. For an Independent made comedy film, it is the best of its kind I have ever come across. It has a little bit of everything to make you gag and gasp for breath whether the use of a scent, devise, smothering or just walking in on a one legged woman having sex with a sex offender. It is a total shock n' awe film, that may not be for anyone offended by men dressed as women with huge boobs, oh and if talking about lesbian sex over ice cream offends you, then forget watching the making of the secret ingredient to Claudia's casserole, you won't be able to handle it. However, if you think you can handle with this unique and shocking film...grab your copy as soon as you can. If you have to have one guilty pleasure in life, let it be Trashology...it is totally one of mine! For the full review go to www.charhardin.blogspot.com
james_depaolo This film is the reason why I think therapy is highly recommended. Trust me, after the 3 stories we get to see the closing moments with Tracy and her male friend, and they do something that is so vile and disgusting that I cannot even begin to describe how absolutely bizarre it came across as. John Waters himself would love this film, but I think he would hate himself afterwards for knowing he inspired this wave of film. This film without question is not for everyone and would more than likely offend anyone who watches it. But, the film was well written and very unpredictable. And, when you have Manoush singing your theme song, you almost know that this ride is going to be something that either you are going to praise and talk about a lot, or never tell a soul what you watched and when your whole house is empty rewatch it. This film is John Waters for 2012, and I absolutely had fun with it and think that people who are in the mood for a slice of the perverse would love this film as well. John Waters would really be proud.
amiriking I was extremely lucky to be chosen to review this movie. I even did a review on it. My expectations were to rate this movie 8/10. After laughing non-stop and thoroughly enjoying the story and how everything seamlessly tied together, it was VERY easy to rate it 10/10. I loved every minute of it!! The characters were AMAZING and the hilarity put me in tears! THIS MOVIE IS A MUST HAVE. I find myself comparing it to "Bridesmaids" a lot on terms of funniness. Though its definitely a little more raunchy and hardcore. I assure you, you will not be disappointed. FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY and overall just WEIRD!!! I loved it!! Well written and delivered!
slasherstudios I guess you could say Trash Cinema is a bit of an acquired taste. Not everyone fan of film can fully appreciate the blood, sweat, and other bodily fluids that go into making a true Trash Cinema gem. With the death of the drive in and multiplexes popping up in suburban America everywhere, it is a dying sub-genre of film that hasn't been visited in quite sometime. When I received word of a new Trash flick from filmmakers, I jumped at the opportunity to review it. In the world of bland PG-13 horror movies and remakes, Trashology sounded like a breath of fresh, vomit infused air. Imagine the most twisted episode of Strangers with Candy you've ever seen, mixed with some early John Waters, and sprinkled with a dash of Troma. If that sounds like the perfect cocktail to you, Trashology is the movie you've been waiting for.The anthology flick begins with a wraparound story as we meet Tracy (a sweet but deliciously cynical Laura Lee Black). Tracy is a middle aged woman going to college to become the next underground Trash filmmaker. After giving her film professor head for arriving late for class, she finds herself with a "Trashology" book full of stories featuring sex, violence, and just about every bodily fluid imaginable. Is Tracy ready for the journey into utter madness and will this help her become the next great Trash Cinema cult leader?In the first story titled "The Vat" we meet Beatrice (Jenny Coulter) and Laura (Rodney Horn). Imagine Mink Stole as a 65 year old cranky, nicotine addicted spitfire and you have an idea of who Beatrice is. As for Laura, imagine Mrs. Fine from The Nanny cranked up to 11 with a delightful, mean spirited sense of humor. The duo are met by religious fanatic Claudia (Angie Keeling) who is severely upset she got ripped off at 25 cent Banana Wednesday. After a bit of a mix up, Claudia ends up dead and Beatrice and Laura are forced to bring her back using an Oujia board. By far my favorite segment of the film, "The Vat" features a knock out performance by Horn as the delightfully kooky Jewish woman Laura. I really can't say enough about Horn's performance as he had me laughing with every line that came out of his mouth. Coulter and Keeling are wonderful too and the trio are so off-the-wall and nutty that I would love to see an entire feature wrapped around these three characters.Next up, we have "Big Debbie" as we meet a rather large woman in her wedding dresses crying as she is walking down the street holding snack cakes. Debbie (in another delicious performance by Horn) has just been stood up on her wedding day. She meets a young man on the street who offers her a shower back at his place to clean up. When she arrives at his apartment, his friend is waiting for her and the twosome plan to use her for some "fun". When one of the two men end up dead, Debbie is forced to get rid of the body. Little does she know an angry lesbian (Rachel Stout) bent on revenge has seen her and wants to get some justice of her own. This story is a lot of fun and doesn't quite play out the way that many viewers will be expecting. Less grotesque than the first story, this installment still feels like a wildly over-the-top and gaudy episode of "Tales from the Crypt" meets Very Bad Things. No…I mean that in a good way!In our final story, we meet Katrina and Melissa (played in wonderful, go-for-broke performances by Dorton & Conner), a pair of female vigilantes who discover a cell phone application in which they are able to track down sexual predators in their area. Hidden secrets and a nice twist ending put a smile on my face through this entire installment. While this story runs a little on the long side (at least a few minutes could be trimmed as the story becomes a little repetitive), it features the same spirit of the other stories with an attitude that perfectly fits the style of films such as Pink Flamingos and Desperate Living."Trashology" isn't a film for everyone. If you can't handle vomiting, diarrhea, and gratuitous nudity..this film probably isn't for you. Nonetheless, if you've been waiting for that perfectly trashy flick to offend your friends and shock the neighbors, "Trashology" is the cinematic obscenity you're looking for. It's rude, crude, and over-the- top. Something tells me John Waters would be proud. Long live Trash Cinema!
