Eat Your Makeup

Eat Your Makeup is a 1968 short film directed by John Waters, starring Marina Melin, Divine, Mary Vivian Pearce, David Lochary, Howard Gruber, and Maelcum Soul.

However, since 2004 it has been screened occasionally as part of various John Waters touring art exhibitions.

[3] A deranged nanny (Maelcum Soul) kidnaps young girls and forces them to model themselves to death in front of her boyfriend (David Lochary) and their crazed friends.

Highlights include one of the spectators (Divine) fantasizing that he is Jackie Kennedy and reliving the JFK assassination in his mind,[4] and a starving model clawing her way up a sand dune while crying out.

The film was originally only released in a church basement but has been screened occasionally at Waters' exhibits through the years.
