Cry-Baby (1990)

from Cult Cinema Circle

This week, we’re shedding one single, sexy tear for Cry-Baby (1990), John Waters’ delightfully deranged teen musical where bad boys ride motorcycles, good girls lose their minds, and everyone’s got more hair grease than sense. We’re talking prison chic, awkward tongue kisses, and a world where courtroom scenes turn into doo-wop numbers. Johnny Depp smolders, Ricki Lake twirls, and Traci Lords steals every scene she struts through. So grab your leather jacket, pout like your life depends on it, and join us for a wild ride into Waters’ world of love, lust, and one seriously committed tear duct. ---- Intro/Outro Music: "Phantom Fun" by Jonathan Boyle ---- Show E-Mail: [email protected] ---- Follow Cult Cinema Circle on Instagram, Bluesky, and Letterboxd
