Buttcrack

What can I say? I loved this movie! I can see where it wouldn't be for everybody, but it was for me. I don't know when I've laughed so hard at things so dumb, but this movie has plenty of dumb funny scenes. A particular favorite is the ride in the car when Wade swears Ken is gay. I totally love it. Yeah sure, it's low budget, no big stars, Troma, sub par acting, but come on! Isn't that also what makes it great? Does every movie have to be academy award worthy before it is "good?" The badness of this movie is what is good about it. The fact that a movie like this even got made is a good F*** to Hollywood and all its hype. I hope there will be a part 2.

I happen to like this movie for the sheer joy of watching an indi. film that looks like it was made for $15 or so. the roommate's voice makes you want to kill him and the girlfriend is a total pain in the ass. i kinda hope the make part two, i would watch it out of pure morbid curiosity.

So, a movie about a killer ass, huh? Well, I'd be lying if I said that's the stupidest idea I've ever heard for a low-budget horror movie. Come to find out, there are much... much worse stories out there, maybe not quite so random, amateurish, and not well thought out But really, what can I say, other than, at least it wasn't shot on video.

Meet portly Wade, an over-weight, curly-haired, annoying, clueless reject of a human, who spends most of his time playing Atari (nice touch) and by most, I mean 100 %. Wade lives with his so-called friend, Brian, Brian despises Wade for his rudeness, for his body odor, for the way he always barges in on him and his girlfriend, for his inability to realize his voice is stupid, but mostly, because this waste of space doesn't have the damn common courtesy to pull his pants up now and then. It almost makes him mad enough to throw a (plugged in) stereo in the tub when Wade finally decides to take a bath, and by almost I mean Wade is now dead from electrocution, serves him right for being such a thoughtless oaf. What Brian doesn't know is that Wade's sister is into voodoo, and somehow she knows exactly what went down. Hell bent on revenge, sister Wade puts a curse on... her dead brother, I guess. Portly Wade is now resurrected as a zombie, although, he thinks he's still alive, and really doesn't mean any harm, the mere sight of his crack kills. Jeepers, what an awesome idea for a movie!!

Good God!! What would possess someone to come up with a story like this? I'll just assume this movie was made with the desperate hope of being picked up by Troma, well, congratulations gang, your wish came true, and I'm sure they're as proud as they can be. Personally, I would have liked it better if it remained a "roommate from Hell" comedy, and things had continued till Brian blew his own brains out right before the credits, but that's just me. Perhaps I've been a bit too hard on this movie, it has style, and a really enthusiastic feel to it, and a catchy little score, and it has decency to not wear out its welcome at 68 minutes. I recommend Buttcrack mainly because if you have any sense of humor at all, chances are good, it'll make you laugh, and ultimately, that's all that matters. Yay for Buttcrack. 7/10

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.

The first 30 minutes or so of this movie was priceless. The Obnoxiousness of Wade is classic. If you haven't seen this yet and are in the mood to laugh hard, you gotta see this one. Sure, its low budget and you can tell it but it is so funny that after you start watching, you forget all about the low budget quality. Mojo Nixon does a great job of playing Preacher Man Bob, and there are even some Mojo Nixon songs during the movie.(Why does IMDb require reviewers to write 10 lines of text? I would think the less text entered, the more room they would have on their server. It's kind of annoying. That's why I'm rambling now. I made my point about the movie in the first five lines.) Anyway, yes you owe it to yourself to see this movie at least once. After you do, you will be inviting your friends over to watch it!
