Did anyone not like this movie?

I saw this on IFC and I was so pumped to see it since I saw his other films (Female Trouble, Serial Mom, Hairspray, and Pink Flamingos) and I loved all of them. So I thought it would be a cool classic Waters movie. However the movie I expected didn't show up instead I was treated to in my opinion Waters worst movie that the only laughing I did was in Edith Massey's part which was absolutely hilarious.

I guess my problem was most of the movie felt so depressing and I didn't get at what part I was suspose to be laughing was it when Francine's husband was screwing Mink Stole or when she became an alcholic. I know he trying to make fun of over melodramatic but to me it didn't come off that well. There is none of the shock in older movies or making fun of society in general in his newer movies. Truthfully the movie was just boring.

P.S. What was with all of Francine's sniffing it just looked really strange and made her come off as being well kind of a freak when I thought you were suspose to symphaize with her.
