Mondo Trasho: Wild Things

Look, any film series with the word “trash” in its name is 100 percent obligated to give some shine to John McNaughton’s Wild Things, the 1998 erotic thriller that represents the absolute apex of Skinemax cinema. McNaughton’s jail-and-gator-bait-noir is unapologetically shameless, but it’s also very self-aware, and the way everyone involved (and it’s a stacked cast, with Bill Murray, Theresa Russell, Matt Dillon, Kevin Bacon, and Kevin Bacon’s big ol’ dick) balances their gleeful indulgence of titillating sleaze with a strong dedication to executing McNaughton’s deceptively clever mystery makes Wild Things a legitimate must-see for fans of real pulp fiction.
