I thought I had seen some really mentally disturbed & tasteless movies in The Voices (2014) and Jo-Jo Rabbit (2019)

But this one really has to be it. I think a living dead fart-powered man with a direction-finding boner beats even a serial killer comedy with wacky arguments with victims' heads, and a lovable Adolf Hitler.

Strange times we live in. These movies themselves do not shock or upset me. It's more the fact that we live in a society where they are considered viable entertainment.

Seriously, read the plot summary on Wikipedia. At any time prior to the 2010s this script would have been considered ridiculous and thrown in the trash. The writers must have shaken their heads in astonishment when it was accepted. I am sure they submitted it as a prank.

Its actually quite intellectual and funny, but presented in over the top satire. Everything is a metaphor for life, juxtaposed with a corpse. I know plenty of guys who were led around by their dicks, me included. It isn't so far fetched.

I agree. I thought it was a lot deeper than the trailer suggested. Plus, it was pretty original.

I never saw a trailer for it, but i avoid trailers like the plague.

You didn't see it but are coming to your conclusion from a plot summary?

Ever hear that old Cheech & Chong "Dogshit" routine? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY7ZX6ngOSs I didn't need to go as far as they did.
