DEMENTED FOREVER! This week we tap into our first John Waters fare as Savage has us queuing the the cult film Cecil B. DeMented, starring Stephen Dorff, Melanie Griffith, Maggie Gyllenahall, Alicia Witt and a then unknown Mike Shannon. In it, we go behind the scenes with a group of obsessed cinema terrorists whose goal in life is to avenge the crass sins of commercial movie culture through acts of brazen film making and vigilante outlaw cinema retribution. As the movie begins, the title character and his âSprocket Holesâ gang kidnap Honey Whitlock (Griffith), a beloved Hollywood movie star visiting Baltimore for the premiere of her latest blockbuster. Once Whitlock is their prisoner, DeMented (Dorff) and his horny, tattooed crew immediately go into production on Raving Beauty, the ultimate underground movie in which Whitlock is forced to play the insane owner of a failed art theater. Armed with lights, cameras, heavy artillery and courage to burn, DeMented and his guerrilla production team wreak havoc on the Baltimore film scene, hitting targets from the Maryland Film Commission to penetrating the high-security set of a major big-budget sequel. The movie also has a plethora of cameos and âWow, that guy!â cast sneakers â such as Ricki Lake, Kevin Nealon, Eric Roberts, Patty Hearst, and Rosanne Barr⦠We wrap it all up with our Top 3 Directors weâd âHonor with a Tattoo!â
