Review of Tusk (2014) by Tofewviews — 04 Dec 2014

For those of you who enjoy Kevin Smith, as a writer, director, comedian, pot smoker, or just a fat guy, this is the movie for you to watch. If you don't, then this may not be the movie for you, because this is about as Kevin Smith as it gets. If you have no idea where you stand, then watching this movie is certainly what you should do.

I'm going to be straight with you, this is not a movie for the feint of heart, so if you're on your Disney Frozen bs then DO NOT watch this twisted flick. Tusk is in the horror/comedy section of Smith's work, done similarly to Red State(2011), it gives you that weird twisting uncomfortable feeling in the pit of your stomach durring several of the scenes. This flick follows podcast host (Justin Long) venture up to the great white north of Canada in search of a story to tell his co-host (Haley Joel Osment f***ing 'I see dead people' kid) on their show, he finds himself a story and more than he bargained for. The cast, including Smith's daughter and Johnny Depp's daughter, all do wonderfully in portraying Smiths twisted horror story, but I was blown away to see some downright ridiculously talented acting from Johnny motherf***ing Depp himself. If I were to give a quick overview of this movie I'd probably sum it up with, The Human Centipede meets Kevin Smith meets a Walrus.

Definitely worth seeing if you're looking to watch something truly strange, but don't worry, even when it gets horrific, it's still pretty ridiculous, you'll see what I mean.
