    fun!

    this was a great movie, for being so short of a movie! i've seen this one 2 or 3 times and it doesn't get old. for the budget that this movie looks like it had, it was excellent. my favorite character was the preacher, with his obnoxious southern preaching and his dancing for the lord, haha. i just wish all troma movies were like this one (if only sgt kabuki man was as short as this one, it would have probably been good). highly recommended and it doesn't even take long to watch.

    God is everywhere! He's in your shoes! He's in the little hairs on the back of your neck!

    Brian (Doug Ciskowski) just wants some time alone with his girlfriend (Kathy Wittes). Unfortunately, his roommate is a real pain in the ass. Wade "Buttcrack" Jenkins (Caleb Kreischer) just can't keep his pants up. He should be a plumber. After a plan to get him out of the house so Brian could propose failed, he lost it and accidentally kills Wade.

    But, Wade's sister (Cindy Geary) is a witch and brings Wade back from the dead. Now, we have a buttcrack zombie on the loose. Not a lot of gore, but what you would expect in a cheap film.

    Sure, it is low budget, but it is funny, and the performance of Mojo Nixon as Preacher Man Bob is over the top.

    Very inventive.

    I saw this at Best Buy the other day and I figured that this is probably another one of those movies "that are so dumb, they're good". Yeah, I was right. Made a budget of what looks to be about 10 dollars, BUTTCRACK is one of the best indie flicks I have ever has the misfortune of seeing.

    Director Jim Larsen didn't even have to pay his 'actors' in this movie. Some supposed musician, Mojo Nixon (I have no clue who he is) also stars in this movie as a crazy preacher.

    Simply put, this is one of the best zombie/horror/comedy/voodoo films I have ever seen. The camera work is not all that bad and the sound is actually pretty good for a film such as this. I was expecting for the movie to have terrible cinematography and sound editing. It's a good thing I was wrong.

    You should see this movie. It's wildly cool. BUTTCRACK: 5/5.

    TEN STARS WAY WAY UP

    The tag line "we are all zombies" says it all. This movie is a gift to the world. With well developed characters like Preacher man Bob and Wade it's a must see for any cinema enthusiast.

    Hilarious

    Excellent film regarding the intricate world of Wade "Buttcrack" Jenkins. The poignant portrayal of a man living in oblivion to his repulsive buttcrack. In addition, this film provides a plethora of low brow chuckles, from Wades atari addiction, to the gruesome zombie buttcrack. If should be asked to look past the films obvious monetary short-commings, it is still sure to please those familiar to Troma's other movies. Once again, a great Troma figure has been created, with the heralding of Preacher Man Bob, and his fantastic respite towards all things unholy !!!
