See this film: Street Trash @ftermidnight at the Coolidge

Kind of like Toxic Avenger by way of Trash Humpers, Jim Muro's Street Trash (1987) lives up to its title. Stinky derelicts start buying booze called Tenafly Viper at Ed's liquor store for a buck a bottle and unleash the cheapo, gross-out special effects. Not only a revoltingly hilarious indulgence in politically incorrect bad taste, the movie also reflects, not unlike Bret Easton Ellis's American Psycho, the contempt for poverty so popular during the Greed is Good era. And today. That's at the Coolidge Corner Theatre, 290 Harvard St, Brookline | Fri-Sat @ midnight | $9 | 617.734.2500 or coolidge.org.
