Purgatory Junction(1997)

Purgatory Junction is a dark comedy that pits a vain, self-absorbed mother against her daughter as they both navigate a cutthroat world of predatory men and exploitation cinema. When ambition and vanity collide, the two women find themselves locked in a fierce competition that tests their relationship and forces them to confront the cost of survival in an industry built on objectification. The film explores themes of family dysfunction, desperation, and moral compromise with sharp wit and unflinching honesty. As mother and daughter scheme and sabotage their way toward success, Purgatory Junction asks whether the price of making it in such a toxic landscape is worth the damage left in their wake. A darkly comedic examination of ambition, ego, and the lengths people will go to stay relevant.
