“A crass, queer cult classic in the making…Bottoms carves an instant groove for itself as a cult favorite and a battle cry of queer, female rage.” -The Mary Sue

An instant comedy classic, Emma Seligman’s BOTTOMS is the “horniest, bloodiest high school movie of the 21st century” (Rolling Stone). Starring Ayo Edibiri and Rachel Sennott as loser lesbian pals who form an after-school fight club under the guise of female empowerment as a ruse to get cheerleaders to have sex with them, BOTTOMS is raunchy queer comedy that has already spawned an adoring cult. Featuring surreal discursions, Charli XCX bangers, Marshawn Lynch as a gym teacher and several jokes that walk the razor’s edge between boundary-pushing and wildly inappropriate, this one may not be for the faint of heart, but for those who can get on its chaotic wavelength, welcome to your new favorite comedy.
