Blending backwoods production values with John Waters-esque trashy melodrama, COMMON LAW WIFE is a thunderously entertaining exploitation film with hilarious twists and evocative swamp locales. When her boyfriend Shugfoot Rainey tries to dump her for his young niece, Linda discovers she’s been with him long enough to qualify as his common law wife. Unafraid to take revenge and have fun doing it, she schemes, seduces, and scams her way through her small town until everyone knows she’s not to be trifled with.
