Review: I went into Tusk with some worry and reservation.I consider myself a fairly big Kevin Smith fan. Particularly admiring his films Chasing Amy, Dogma and Red State. And I think the (fairly recent) backlash against Smith is unwarranted for the most part. His films have always been unique and had a flavor all their own. And the man himself has always been open, candid and participatory with his fanbase. (Heck, this films production was decided by his Twitter followers.) I just dont see why, in the past year or so, an increasingly vocal portion of the internet has turned against him.But I wasnt sure what to make of this new film. Knowing it was inspired by an episode of his podcast left me worried it would be one-note. Knowing it was his first real foray into the world of body horror (a sub-genre that is incredible when done well, but laughable when done poorly) left me worried it might not quite work. And knowing full-well of its ludicrous premise left me worried it would either be too restrained or go way too far. I was worried this might be the first Smith film that I just couldnt get behind or even like. (And yeah, I even kinda dug Jersey Girl, albeit admitting it was flawed.)But boy, was I wrong. While its definitely far from perfect, and far from being his best work, Tusk represents a bizarre, hellish and hilarious thrill-ride that left me constantly gasping and laughing. Its a terrifying fun-house ride and a twisted clown show that should please Smith fans and horror/comedy audiences looking for their fix of weird.Justin Long stars as Wallace Bryton, an American pod-caster who savagely makes fun of people in popular viral videos with his co-host. (Haley Joel Osment) When his trip to Canada goes wrong, and he discovers the subject of an interview he had scheduled has passed away, he attempts to salvage the journey by finding someone new to talk to for the show. He stumbles upon an open letter from Howard Howe (Michael Parks), a reclusive old man seeking someone to share his lifetimes worth of stories with.However, Wallace soon discovers Howe has an ulterior motive. Obsessed with a hatred of humanity and an idolization of a wild walrus he had befriended while at sea, Howe wishes to use surgical means to transform Wallace into the animal friend he had known years ago. As Howe slowly begins to alter Wallaces body into a grotesque new form (while mentally conditioning him to embrace his wild side), Wallaces girlfriend Ally (Genesis Rodriguez) begins a desperate struggle to find Wallace and save him from his demented captor.The acting is excellent all around, but Parks steals the show. Howe is equally charming, amusing and perfectly over- the-top, while also still able to be threatening. As weird as it is to say, I could see Parks winning some major awards for the role. Long is fantastic as Wallace. Though undeniably unlikeable, you still feel for him, and get a sense that beneath his cruel exterior, theres a fragile soul. And his role as the transforming Wallace/Walrus is just a hoot to watch. Rodriguez and Osment ground the film perfectly, giving wonderful weight to their smaller roles.The only actor I cannot really comment on is the well-known and even mythical guest-star who shall go unnamed, to save the surprise. But what I can say is that this guest-role will definitely leave audiences polarized, as its VERY out there. But I felt that, within the context of the film, it worked. The movie is quite zany on its own during the second half, and I think this character did a good job ushering in the audience to the films true craziness when he showed up. And he supplied PLENTY of laughs.Smiths work on the film is an undeniable sign of growth as a storyteller. His script is tight, concise and full of great moments of shock and hilarity. And I found this to be by far his most visually striking work. Smith often used to sort-of belittle his own skills as a director and visual storyteller. (In part because his first film films were bas...
