Director of the films Multiple Maniacs, Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble, and the 1988 version of Hairspray, John Waters has a more obscure side to him, and that is his hand-made Christmas cards which he has been doing since he was a high school student in 1964.
With the firm belief that Christmas cards must be hand-made and personally written, he says that people should make time for Christmas cards quipping that the whole purpose of life is Christmas. And he stands by that conviction with enduring resolve and unabashed wit.

This year, we still have yet to see what he’s going to do. Previous years, however, were quite brazen, with 2022’s blowup dolls, 2021’s decapitated reindeer head, and 2020’s sugar cane eye trauma.
The previous decade probably included some of his edgiest with the 2018 motion card depicting scary Santa along with cool Jesus and saintly devil, 2017 Waters wearing a sleeveless Santa jacket with his body filled with tattoos, and 2011’s Santa holding a dead Easter bunny whom he apparently killed.
