While Dottie is clearly becoming unhinged due to the stress of these calls, Beverly can barely contain her laughter. Shortly after, we see Beverly up in her room prank calling Dottie and unleashing a tidal wave of obscenities onto her. Naturally, they deny knowing anything about it and the detectives leave. They show Beverly and her husband Eugene one the the ransom-like letters which reads, " I'll get you pussy face" along with a smiley face. Near the start of the film, some detectives show up at the Sutphin family home to see if they know anything about the profane messages and prank phone calls their neighbor, Dottie Hinkle (Mink Stole), has been receiving.
If you constantly call somebody "pussy face", they'll lose their mind.

With that in mind, join me now as I attempt to extract useful life lessons from Serial Mom, and maybe, just maybe we'll all end up learning some better manners along the way too.
SERIAL MOM 1994 QUOTES MOVIE
While the movie is a dark comedy, that doesn't mean we can't find some useful morsels of knowledge in it too. It's absolutely hilarious watching Beverly descend deeper into madness as the film progresses, and you'll see exactly what I mean shortly. I'm not talking about serious offenses either I'm talking about things like chewing gum or somebody not wanting to date her daughter. The truth, however, is that she has uncontrollable homicidal impulses that rise to the surface whenever anybody does something she doesn't approve of. The story is all about Beverly Sutphin (portrayed by Kathleen Turner), who on the surface, appears to be a happy housewife living in suburbia with her family. John Waters has made some fantastic cult films over the years, but for my money, it just doesn't get any better than the dark comedy that is Serial Mom. Serial Mom is one of those movies that immediately brings me back to a the glory days of video rental stores, and man did I ever rent the hell out of this one when it finally came out on VHS.
