Waters also discusses violence, attending trials, Baltimore, Edith Massey, casting, fame (well, by his standards at the time) and his relationship with his parents. He also covers the productions of his short films Roman Candles, Hag in a Black Leather Jacket and Eat Your Makeup, leaving out The Diane Linkletter Story. There are chapters covering the productions of Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble and Desperate Living, with the chapter "The Hillbilly Ripoffs" covering Mondo Trasho and Multiple Maniacs.
Originally published in 1981, Shock Value: A Tasteful Book About Bad Taste was director/screenwriter John Waters' first autobiography, covering his early life and career through Desperate Living, right before he started work on Polyester, which was his first small step toward the mainstream.
