Synopsis

Trash Humpers jumps on the spectator like a hypnotic nightmare: an experience you are eager to escape from, but once you wake up from it, you wish you hadn’t left behind. The man responsible for the invention is Harmony Korine, who now displaces the coordinates of his cinema towards an enclave that’s completely away from the grasp of God; i.e., from industrial cinema. The main characters in Trash Humpers (shot and edited in VHS format) are a group of wrinkled and monstrous individuals who, just like little devils, wander around the landscapes of White Trash North America defending their “garbage fuckers” condition. Right from the start, Korine proposes an exercise on provocation which echoes the farces of the Jackass clan, filtered through David Lynch’s macabre take on the world of suburbia. Once its emphatic internal logic is consolidated, the film then sketches a poetic of marginalization that is reminiscent of the madonnas and pimps of the first Pasolini, replacing his open fields and shacks with parking lots and roadsides. After several attempts, Korine finally managed to compose a genuine and poisonous ode to the wastes of consumer society.
