Anus Magillicutty is a one of a kind. It doesn't try to be anything it isn't. It is a failure as a great piece of cinema, but it is groundbreaking in what I feel is a video revolution in movie making. It is a monument to what a few people can do without the money of Hollywood films. They can do whatever they want - and it shows in Anus Magillicutty.
The producers obviously didn't care what anyone would think of them. They made a movie with no socially redeeming qualities, but nonetheless a movie that is entertaining because it is so out there, so unapologetic, and so fun. Their disdain for 'society's norms' or what anyone will think is almost palatable when you watch this movie. For some reason that lack of respect is energizing to me in its anarchic freedom.
In the end, not many people will be able to handle this movie because they honestly won't get it. I hope this movie inspires other filmmakers to venture out with confidence to make the movie that they want without second guessing themselves or counting on Hollywood to fund their dream.
