In our new series 'CULT 🙌🏻 or CRAP 💩?!" the culture queens explore the dodgy and delightful films which exist on the periphery of our cultural consciousness, determining whether they deserve the lofty term 'cult classic' 🙌🏻 or are merely a big ol' steamy mess. 💩

And what better film to start our scintillating series than Kevin Reynold's 1995 'Waterworld'! 🌊🐠💁🏻‍♂️ From a bold urine filled opener, 🚽 to the confusion of tattooing a baby and putting it in a basket of dirt 👼🏻(?!), the culture queens get into the ocean filled confusion of this questionable cult classic.

Asking that most bold and wavy of questions - did that guy's mum sleep with a fish? 🐠🐠
