i can't quote all your previous posts but you've been on an amazing roll lately with cronenberg and john waters and lynch. and yes multiple maniacs is right up there with the greatest... while pink flamingos is his most canonical, dont miss desperate living either
i did a stupid thing with mulholland drive which was to "solve" it as a dead person who doesn't know she's dead wandering through the bardo (my own obsession from a different time and place). and that narrative unfortunately works too well
basic instinct is of course the great paul verhoeven. see if you can find "the fourth man", which is a very unusual movie hahaha. showgirs is often panned as trash but i think it's pure genius. and if you watch starship troopers try to remember that it was satire--problem is reality has exceeded satire by now. we are so degraded, we are beyond satire
