Purely Joyful Movie!
A Masterpiece!
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
View MoreThe movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.
View MoreThe 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!
View MoreI agree with Jack The Ripper 1888. This really is a great little movie. If you don't like really cheap, silly movies then stay away. How anyone could watch a movie called Buttcrack, and expect it to be serious or scary is totally beyond me.I've watched a lot of Troma, and a lot of other indie "horror" and horror/comedy. Most of it doesn't have half the energy and wit of this. Of course most of it's downright retarded. It's supposed to be. A few people got together and decided to have a good time making a movie. That movie happened to be entertaining because known to themselves at the time or not, they actually had some talent for making movies.Some of it they obviously got lucky, but I think it was their genuine enthusiasm and enjoyment of what they were doing that carried over in nearly every scene. The cast just let loose and bust out some damn funny performances because you can tell they were relaxed and working in a fun environment.The story is dumb, but probably based on a real person/experience I bet. The script or improv is blessed with the infectious spirit of being high and getting the joke of life.If you take the movie for what it is, and not bring high expectations, or any expectations then you might be one of the lucky ones who gets this kind of movie. You're probably an awesome person, at least now and again, and you can join me in laughing at the poor folk who can't enjoy such beautifully simple pleasures as having a laugh at yourself, the world and at your friends sweaty buttcrack coming between you and your girl.Read that last part again and tell me how that can fail the funny test?
View More**********POSSIBILITY OF SMALL SPOILERS****************I thought this was a very new and fresh approach to the world of zombie movies. I was taken back by the wonderful plot and characters. Especially the character who played " Buttcrack ". The only complaint I have to the movie ( besides the fact that I got a defective DVD that didn't play any of the extras except the commentary track and the movie trailers ) is the long winded rantings by the preacher. Some of it was funny but some of it just reminded me of the church my parents forced me to go to back when I lived at home in school. Anyways, great movie. Especially for ULTRA LOW BUDGET.... I gave it 8 out of 10. Watch it. It's worth it.
View MoreI 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.
