Synopsis

Created as an ode to the Ross Hunter-style big-screen soaps of the 60's, DIE MOMMIE DIE features Charles Busch as the fallen pop diva, Angela Arden. When Angela's husband, Sol (Philip Baker Hall), discovers that she's having an affair with tennis pro, gigolo and failed actor Tony Parker (Jason Priestley), Angela calculatedly offs him with a poisoned suppository, or does she? What follows is a hilarious mixture of whodunits and double-crossings involving Bootsie (Frances Conroy), the ill-fated family maid, Edith (Natasha Lyonne), Angela and Sol's spoiled, vampy daughter and Lance (Stark Sands), their boy-toy son.
