Rectuma

Terrible acting, terrible plot, terrible dialogue, terrible soundtrack, terrible dubbing, and a terrible waste of time. It wasn't offensive, just completely and utterly boring. I'm a BIG fan of lots of low budget or B grade movies, but usually they have a great plot or a good idea behind them. I watched this with a friend who loves B grade horror movies and he actually fell asleep through it. This is something maybe a 5 year old kid would find amusing, but you'd have to find one of those kids who giggles every time somebody says the word 'butt'. He wouldn't be laughing at the movie, just the word 'butt'. To give you an idea of how juvenile this movie is, they use the word 'poop' a lot but never say the S word (that would be rude wouldn't it?) however they occasionally use the F word. It felt like a Disney movie, designed not to offend anybody. It doesn't fit into the 'Comedy' genre and doesn't fit into the 'horror' genre either. The most amusing thing about the movie is the name. I can only assume the movie is so far rating at 7.3/10 after 30 votes is because every single member of the cast voted 10 for it. PLEASE DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THIS!! I implore you! Stop giving people who make these movies your DVD renting money! Then maybe they will stop making movies like this. I've seen movies in the IMDb Bottom 100 that were far more entertaining than this.

Attended advance preview of "Rectuma" and had a great time. Worth it just to see the "Jodie Foster" impersonation. Lead actor reminds one of Gene Wilder in his 1970's films, very good performances by all, including some veteran Pirromount players.

Waldo Williams (Bill Devlin) is raped in the ass by a Mexican butt-humping bullfrog while on vacation with his bitchy, unfaithful wife Valveeta (Dani Leon). His prostate infected by the frog's goo, Waldo seeks help from proctologist Doctor Coldstone (a hilarious turn by Ron Curtiss), who refers him to Doctor Wansamsaki (Alex W. Chen), a scientist who has been developing a radical cure that involves the insertion of a radioactive rod up the rectum. Unfortunately, Wansamsaki's ass-obsessed assistant Wanger (Michael R. Thomas) botches the procedure causing Waldo's butt to slowly mutate, eventually turning into a Godzilla-sized radioactive rear that goes on a rampage.

I'm not ashamed to admit that I think butts are funny: they look funny, they make funny noises, and they poop. And pooping is funny. If, like me, you are blessed with the sense of humour of a six-year-old, then I can definitely recommend Mark Pirro's Rectuma, an hour and a half of thoroughly puerile nonsense that delivers an endless stream of toilet humour, most of which hits the target with a resounding splash.

In addition to the film's delightfully childish gags, we also get to enjoy a pretty pointless but still brilliant impression of Jodie Foster from Jean Black, whose police detective character believes that she is Clarice Starling from The Silence of the Lambs, and the fun and rather surreal use of Japanese narrators Hi and Nee, who pop up sporadically to recap the action in song form. Only in the final reel, when the giant Rectuma trashes Los Angeles, does the film fall a little flat, the sight of a giant ass knocking down buildings not quite as funny as it sounds.

I don't get some of these bad comments left for this movie. This is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen...ever. There is nowhere it won't go and I am thankful for it. This is not a film to see if you are politically correct, easily offended, religious, or have absolutely no sense of humor. Today, the current trend is to make sequels, rip offs, remakes, reimaginations, re-writes, rehashes, etc. etc. etc. People shell out millions collectively to see all the blockbuster crap that Hollywood force feeds them. Then here comes a film that is completely original and unique, and the less astute folks gripe about it. I would think that the people who have left bad comments just don't get the humor...or live in trailers. Screw 'em. They can have their Superman Returns, X Men and Spiderman sequels, I vote for clever and original, and recommend Rectuma highly!!

Have you ever flipped around at 3AM looking for a movie? If you reach "recatuma", flip on (it will never be shown at any other time, I'm sure).

I've nothing against gutter humor, e.g., "There's Something about Mary", or the "American Pie" series, but "recatuma" is just not funny. It looks like the product of two 8-year-olds who got their hands on a camera.

It's beyond me how this movie has one of the highest ratings I've seen on IMDb (votes by the director and friends?), but this movie seriously makes me question IMDb ratings.
