Like a train wreck full of naked women. Only more funny.
CaptainClark20 December 2005
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.

The worst movie ever
peruspertti25 December 2006
This sounds like an adult movie but it is not!

I watched this movie because it was rated to be so bad it might have been good, and I was told it was a cult classic or something, and let me tell you, it really is as bad as it's rating. Maybe the worst movie I've ever seen.

The plot is almost nonexistent, the acting is very amateur, the so-called special effects make you feel you could have done better yourself, pretty much everything about this movie sucks big time.

Between scenes, every now and then, there's topless models doing something. Why? I have no idea... It has nothing to do with the plot.

This movie is very bad. Only watch if you want to see one of the worst movies ever made...

Like a boy fantasy
Laivaren14 May 2006
This film... it's 80% wannabe-porn 15% crap and 5% story. And the story sucks... But, hey! there's tits! Anyways... I've been in productions more serious than this one, that saying A LOT! It's like they didn't even try! seriously! I've seen Manos - The Hands of Faith, and that movie was ten times better than this one! Goddamn it how awful this is! It's like being forced to watch porn in front of your parents, that's how embarrassing this is. I really don't understand how they managed to make one hour of film seem so incredible long! and the actors? What the hell? I know a dead parrot that acts better... the only thing that gives this movie one point is the music, which I kind of liked, specially the "live" music.

Awfully Hilarious!
As_Cold_As_Ice10 April 2009
This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen (on par with Manos), but at the same time, was extremely entertaining.

I mean, half of the 68 minutes movie was random softcore porn. And the other half was quite strange. For one, I didn't have a huge problem with the technical aspects of the movie, other then a few annoying effects. The camera work wasn't awful, neither was the lighting, or sound. Sure, it looked low budget, but that isn't a huge problem.

The acting/plot makes up for it. The acting in this is painful, and I can't imagine a worse actor then the guy playing Anus' father. One scene towards the start with Anus watching his cartoons (terrible CGI 3D animation that looked like a school project) while his dad tries to talk to him is more cringe worthy than a whole season of Curb Your Enthusiasm.

The plot is some stupid crap as well, something to do with Anus making a deal with the devil to make him a "beautiful man", and now random people want to kill him. Between the scenes of porn, you forget just what the hell is happening.

This is one real clusterf@ck of a movie, but that's what makes it so funny. If you can laugh at stupid things like awful acting, retarded characters, low budget gore (a small knife can take off a hand with one slash?!?!) and ridiculous scenarios, give Anus a chance. Otherwise, totally ignore this review, and pretend you ever heard the words Anus McGillicutty.

Not the Worst Film Ever Made
mdefalla31 December 2005
Warning: Spoilers
Anus Magillicutty is not the worst film ever made. It tried to be, but it failed. To truly be the worst movie ever made this film would have to excel in something---bad production, bad acting, bad script, etc.---but quite frankly I've seen much, much, much worse. This film excels at nothing but rather ends up being mediocre and boring.

Anus is a film that happens when a bunch of self-absorbed frat boys get bored and decide to make a movie as an excuse to hang out with friends, have fun, and get women naked for the camera (as if frat boys need an excuse for these aforementioned things).

Which brings me to Tempe, Arizona, the film's location: A lonely place, for sure (as evidenced by Anus's ex-girlfriend's review of the film, check the reviews for Anus Magillicutty on IMDb if you don't believe me). Tempe is hot enough to be hell but not interesting enough for Satan to actually make a personal appearance. Hence the reason why this movie is #1 on the IMDb Bottom 250 (at the moment). Apparently there is something of a "movement" (probably among fraternities) to get this movie voted into the worst slot on IMDb. In my mind this is an attempt to somehow make Tempe more exciting. "Hey, we are home of the worst movie ever!" Sorry Tempe, you're going to have to try harder than that. For right now you'll always be "That place where the Meat Puppets are from," but face it: They left town when the going got good.

90 % filler - adding boobs does not make a movie good.
a-twetman9 September 2012
Warning: Spoilers
The IMDb movie rating scale does not go low enough to give Anus Magillicutty a fair rating. I can't remember being this angry at a film, ever. I really wish there was a service that allowed you to punch people in the face over the internet just so I could vent my anger.

The worst thing about this film is by far the pacing, what little plot there actually is has been extended by random scenes of naked women with heavy metal background music; so much so that the finished product is 90 percent filler, none of which has anything to do with the plot. If I want to see naked girls I will just get some real porn thank you very much.

The plot is inane, the characters are unlikable, the acting and special effects are bad. Some movies are so bad they are funny, Anus Magillicutty has passed even that point. It is truly horrible. The ONLY funny moment in the entire 70 min running time is when the main character accidentally runs over Satan with is car.

It really is the worst movie ever made
Grahamsky3 February 2006
Warning: Spoilers
Anus Magillicutty takes movie-making to a new low; this motion picture is far and away the worst ever made. Unlike other terrible movies like "Manos: the Hands of Fate" or "You Got Served," "Anus Magillicutty" is not even remotely humorous in its absurdity. Sitting through this film made me feel like my soul was filth unworthy of its existence. The dialogue is so awkward that it makes you cringe, praying for death as an escape. Even the gratuitous T&A (which abounds throughout) couldn't save this film from being complete trash, which is a testament to how abominable it really is. There is absolutely no plot, no character development, and ninety percent of the movie is filler. There is a scene of two naked women sucking on a banana for literally five minutes. Two five year-old children with a camera could make a better film than this POS. I am utterly ashamed that I paid fifteen dollars to have my soul stolen by "Anus Magillicutty."

The best worst movie to watch!
segaman55 March 2004
This is a fantastic film to watch for kicks. Grab some buds and chill. One of the stupidest films out there, Some real good fun! That guy Chi-Chi is just cool he is a total Bad ASS. I think Anus was a funny fool, And those wacky characters where just great! Pops was so crazy i was dying and rolling on the floor. And who ever played SATAN was just so comical with his body motions and very athletic. And the fight scene's were pretty cool. The ladies where great it was a stupid film! I liked the two on two action me and my buds were just like whoa man I couldn't believe those things. All in All get the film rent it buy it you wont be sorry I think it's a total classic and worth the fun Best Crazie I have ever seen

Heart-pounding, Powerful, and Brave!
Umama_bin_Horny22 March 2004
This movie is a rollercoaster of excitement for the whole family! It has comedy, drama, intrigue, and romance! My wife and I watched it with the kids and we all stayed glued to the set. My only bad comment about the movie is that I wished it was longer. At least the DVD has some good extras. I can't wait for the sequel. These are the kind of people that we need in Hollywood to make movies. I'm sick of the usual tired "industry" fluff. Aren't you? A little advice: watch this on a plasma. Intense! I give this movie 5 out of 5!

Who doesn't love Anus?
AlissonMerdel28 February 2004
I guess I'm a little biased because Lloyd was my boyfriend, but I still think that I would love this movie if I didn't know anyone personally. It so wacky! Lloyd was a true artist and I will miss him forever. I just hope that other people will have the chance to see him perform.

This movie is pretty mellow but it has a sort of rawness and energy that was so uniquelly Lloyd. But I'm having such a very hard time dealing with everything that happened that I can't really watch Lloyd's movies anymore. I miss him so much.

Lloyd I love you!

Wonderful! Amazing!
losborne-geo6 February 2006
Anus is a hero of our times. There is so much I could write about this film, and the wonderful acting within it. I was moved to tears by the entire cast, and their powerful message for modern man. The lighting, sets and special FX were stunning, and I can't believe this film has such a low rating. Still, it goes to show that this film was ahead of its time, and is a work of eternal genius.

Forget Titanic, forget Star Wars - this is the only movie you will ever want to see. It will, I promise you, transform your life.

Ten stars, without doubt.

There so much I could rave about, but what do I like most about this film? Specifically, the milieu.

So bad, it is entertaining!
wynonasbigbrownbeaver16 April 2009
Warning: Spoilers
Let's face it, Anus Magillicutty is low budget with no script, no money, no real acting and no talent. But why do I find myself giving this movie a 7?

It all started with soft porn scenes, some where all right though they did get repetitive, especially that Banana scene, which the movie could have done without.

Then there is that unscripted part where Anus and his dad argue about taking out the trash and the lame cartoon Anus was watching. I never thought I would laugh so hard about trash.

Then there was that altercation with that Homeless Hippie with that Anthrax t shirt. The dialog is so awful, I just started loving this movie.

The first masked killer talking like a crack head, complaining about running out of day time minutes, was hilarious too. It couldn't have been more poorly executed. When that guys hand got cut off, he was just trying to squirt all the fake blood to Anus' face. If you watch closely, you can see Anus hold back his laughter.

They couldn't make it any more obvious about the same actors playing different parts. It was deliberately set up that way.

That final scene which he confronts a poorly masked Satan with glowing light bulb eyes, is friggin hilarious how Anus and Satan are B/S ing like old pals and high five-ing each other.

Overall, I hate to admit that I recommend this movie, with guilty pleasure. See this to see how bad this movie is but you might like it anyway.

Anus is so SWEET!
YorrickHunt228 February 2004
Actually it was a little sour. If you like a movie that has little to offer besides exploitative nudity than you might be an Anus man. If your looking for a movie to change your life - watch Fight Club.

I rented this movie at the local mom&pop videoplace. It would be hilarious to see it in a big chain like Blockbuster. Its worse than Cabin Fever, but I think it is supposed to be. The filmmakers only talk *bleep* about their own movie throughout the commentary. HAHA! That was the best part. I can't get angry at the makers of this movie too much because after all it says it is the worst movie ever right on the cover. I just thought they were joking.

Trashy Fun
dklion3 January 2006
Growing up I was a fan of Clint Eastwood and Sylvester Stallone action films, which usually involved the anti-hero getting payback against scum who had wronged him and posed a threat to society at large. Anus MacGillicutty is the offspring of those films and is what it is: a disposable and trashy action flick. It serves us a depraved hero to do what we wouldn't (and know that we shouldn't) do in real life: work outside the law, bust heads and kick some bad guy booty. If you put your mind and morality in neutral, you'll find yourself highly amused. This is a low-budget film, but its cheesy shot on video look just adds to the trashy experience.

His best since Dark Places
grahamcwalmsley6 February 2006
Skip Winston is the one to watch here. It's an edge-of-your seat performance that recalls the glory days of Pacino and De Niro.

Those of you that remembered his sinister Boom Operator in Dark Places will know what to expect. And yet there's a layer of subtlety, a beautiful undercurrent of longing, that makes that performance pale by comparison. Indeed, he's almost unrecognisable from that performance alone.

Let's hope for more from this talented young actor. Surely, this film must have given him greater attention elsewhere. And yet, for any aspiring director, there must be a worry about casting Skip: would he eclipse the entire film? Would a Winston performance eclipse the star? The answer, in this film at least, is yes.

With a performance like this, it's hard to widen your attention to the film as a whole. But what did I like most about the film? Specifically, the milieu.

Change your life!
fon-57 February 2006
This movie is hard to describe, it is like NOTHING else out there! Although it is a movie that many people "won't get" on the first watching, when you step outside the box and look at it from another angle, it is a work of genius.

You can watch it a hundred times and still find something new in it. It is a film you can watch when you are feeling sad. It is a film you can watch with friends. If you read up about this film on the internet, you will find even more of interest, that will add to your enjoyment.

It is even better than Shawshank Redemption. There are so many things I love about this film. But what did I like most about the film? Specifically, the milieu.

'Twas like aural and visual ecstasy
racoon_boys_revenge13 April 2006
So very honestly, I have never had an experience like watching this movie, both as an amateur film-maker...but also as a human being. The sheer poignancy of a script that was 99.9% unscripted is mind-blowing, I'm surprised I've been able to stop crying for long enough to write this review but I feel the world must know. Last night I had to go out on a walk simply to think about the movie and reflect on it. It was a full 3 hours until i returned. And even then it was only because I found myself thinking about Anus' woman and wandered into oncoming traffic. For my own safety I came home but with a serious moral dilemma on my hands. Now don't get me wrong, I'm your normal, run-of-the-mill heterosexual. To quote Betty "I like the ladies y'know, i do like 'em". But very honestly, if i were to swing in THAT way I bet you a big shiny penny it'd be because of Anus Magillicutty. The only thing that did keep me in a non-bisexual frame of mind was that woman of Anus. I mean, damn! that woman is fine! This comment has a maximum of 1,000 words so I won't even BEGIN on the technical superiority or the mastermind of a director that helmed the project. I gave this rave reviews to all my film-making buddies and after going on for an hour I'm always asked the same question. But what did I like most about the film? Specifically, the milieu.

Truly, a tour-de-force of greatness
ArtsyNakedCat10 February 2006
There are few movies that can rouse the passions in even the hardest of hearts. "Anus Magillicutty" is one of those movies.

It's a sweeping pageant of ecstasy, sorrow, and rendezvous that enhances the spirit of any who watch it. Truly, this movie is a work of art unparalleled by any in its class and genre.

"Anus Magillicutty " is the story of Anus Magillicutty and in this elegant simplicity, so much of the film's character is revealed to the viewer. It is direct and uncomplicated, but at the same time it evokes a kind of primal vivre that renders the viewer speechless for the duration of the film.

It's a passion-play of amazement and wonder as every scene flickers by in a sweeping torrent of film-making glory.

But what did I like most about the film? Specifically, the milieu.

Love it or hate it, you can't sit there.
bobolikesbananas27 November 2005
Some films are declared bad because they follow formulas, present ridiculously implausible events, or just fall flat on the screen. These are the films that deserve the name "bad movie". There are others which just don't stir anything in the viewers and flood the senses with under-dramatized filler, what Hitchcock fans might describe as "impure cinema". Anus Maguillicutty is fits neither one of these, it grabs you by the throat and challenges you to watch it with anything less than passionate, gut-wrenching feeling. This is by all rights a great film. Small wonder that the viewers either love it or hate it, but nobody feels in between. That is the inherent risk of creating any great work of art, and you have to keep this in mind while watching a film so irreverent and slapsticky on the surface.

Low Budget with high class
nf_f_ns_nc11 February 2006
This movie was the best I've ever seen! You'll just have to watch to see what I mean. I don't want to spoil it for anyone that hasn't seen it yet, so I'm not going into too many details. It's just THAT good! Anus' wife was trying to stop an assassin. And there is poor Anus,trying to do what's right by disposing of the corpse. He even had to put down his beer to get the job done. I mean, when even it seems that Satan himself is after poor Anus, then things get really interesting. His wife had to do what needed to be done, and Anus picked up the pieces. My final thought: But what did I like most about the film? Specifically, the milieu.

Anus Magillicutty is to movies what Shaq is to rapping
k9unit_k1923 March 2006
From the makers of... Anus Magillicutty... comes... Anus Magillicutty. A phenomenal triumph in the annals (haha, anal) of film-making. There's a reason why the "A" in "Anus" is capitalized.

As Anus would say "Oh, was I supposed to cum?" I on the other did not forget. I skeeted all over the place as I was watching because it was so good.

Something about this movie... maybe the horrible execution, maybe the first time actors... have my heart beating like a jackhammer. Truly, no movie will ever be able to top this. The possible exception being Snakes On a Plane.

My name is General Awesome, and I approve of this film.

Thoughts on 'Anus'
Honeyfitz28 December 2006
It's very rare that a film comes along which is quite like this. After the final credits had left the screen, my mind was filled with the images I'd seen, my head ringing with the dialogue.

I'm resisting the urge to compare it to other films because, although 'Anus' has obviously drawn on classics for its feel, there is nothing quite like the experience of watching it.

This viewer is now very tempted to look at the cast and crew's other work, to see how it fares to 'Anus'. I won't spoil anything here for people who haven't seen it, but BOY are you in for a surprise.

But what did I like most about the film? Specifically, the milieu.

Like "Leonard part six" meets chicken liver pate, and how!
eggbeast15 May 2006
I'm not dead! What's going on? Anyway, in defence of "Anus": It was a film ahead of its time. There was a certain amount of friction on set, which lent a roughness to the whole proceedings, but we all went home smiling.

The lighting and camera-work were inspired by the *wonderful* work Michael did on "Troll 2" and "3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain" (A movie so damned good it killed my grandfather, and I still love it -Ishtar cubed!) I don't know if all those fans of "Manos: Hands of Fate" would agree, but Anus' dialogue (as expertly ad libbed by the cast and crew) was as effective as Kiefer's final scenes in "Santa With Muscles".

Labyrinth meets SinCity
kalsia19 May 2006
These existential machinations of charismatic and robust actors both represent a combination of old-time sensations with the graphic twist of the modern cinema. Leaving you at the edge of your seat both the protagonist and side-kick leave you stunned waiting to hear the next set of syllables fall from their lips.

Juicy, heart wrenching, and mystical only touch upon a of few of the adjectives you find while flipping through the thesaurus in an attempt to describe this theatrical wonder.

Your eyes and heart will never forgive you if you don't stop to smell the flowers.
