Kuso

I thought people where being dramatic about this movie. Nope, never again, this was so bad it gave me flashbacks to 2007 when 2 girls 1 cup when viral and 9 year old me watched it. The effects are pretty cool though, but other then that, This movie is just vile. Nothing else to say. 2/10, I'm gonna go throw up now.

"Kuso" is probably unlike any film I've ever seen. How do I even describe it? Well, it's repulsive, surreal, bizarre, unpredictable, and kinda fascinating, but also kinda tedious. I didn't really like how gross it was, but I was able to get through the whole thing. There's at least one scene where it looks like a small rod had been inserted into a * and I looked away because it was just too unpleasant to look at. I think the film is trying to be funny, but I wasn't laughing. I did laugh after it ended, though. I guess you could call it an anthology film that contains both animation and live action. The animation is particularly strange. I really don't know how to describe it, but a whole lot of effort was probably put into it. One of the stories is about a boy/man soiling himself during a class that's in a forest. His classmates laugh at him and he leaves. He then feeds a giant rock or something that looks like it has an anus. What does he feed it? Feces, apparently. Another story involves a woman choking a man while he masturbates in bed. He later has oral sex with a talking boil on her body. Do I need to write more about the film's stories? "Kuso" is something you dare a friend of yours to watch. I'm not sure if it's the grossest film I've ever seen. "Dead Alive" might be grosser. "Kuso" seems like it's weird and disgusting for the sake of being weird and disgusting. I can't say that I like it, but I admire it at least to some degree.

From the reviews I read, I prepared myself for the worst, most disgusting film that I would have ever seen. Instead I watched an incredibly ridiculous film that was surreal and hilarious, and had an amazing soundtrack that really stood out throughout the film. It was pretty much what I expected from Steven Ellison; weird, enticing, baffling, and funny. Great film, like DJ QBert's Wave Twisters and Mr. Oizo. Not for every occasion, but great for that special moment when the time is right...

Literally, movie is obsessed with feces. It's like a bad acid trip took a dump on your face. This review is required to contain at least 150 characters, but that's all I really have to say.

Imagine if you will a quiet dinner with some Harkonnen's, The Cronenberg's, George Clinton and Pier Paolo Pasolini, after the appetizer course everyone drops the Brown Acid and decides to watch a Tool music video which leads to a full blown orgy - picture this and you have the essence of Kuso in a nutshell. An off-the-wall experimental film which borrows from Terry Gilliam, Cronenberg, Tool, Pasolini, Lynch and Holmes to name a few. Hard to watch, but harder to turn away, a vision of a dystonia you wouldn't want to take your kids to but you wouldn't mind watching a reality show about.
