I just finished watching it with two of my friends about five minutes ago.

I was 30, in 2005. I taped it off of Sundance Channel's Midnight Snack show.

I saw it at 14 too in 1973. It was a midnight showing at the Cinematheque in Paris, France by chance.

The audience was crazy. One guy showed up naked, but covered with ivy. Of course the smoke was dense enough to get stoned without any effort.

One of my companions walked out at the end, and threw up, needless to say she did not like the movie.

I think it's hilarious, but I wouldn't show it to my mother.

Old enough to drink. Old enough to watch the movie. A friend introduced me to this. The rest of course is history.

I watched it a few months ago and I'm 25. I must admit that even though I've heard about the movie reputation and I knew (more or less) what to expect, it did quiet shocked me. Anyway, I really liked the film, can't wait to check out other Waters works.

Like, 12 or 13. Saw it on TV and enjoyed it. First discovered John Waters through Serial Mom and Cry Baby and Hairspray and then went on to find this movie and his other stuff with my sister in middle school. We got the DVDs for Christmas when I was 15.
