BRAND NEW 35MM PRINT MADE EXCLUSIVELY FOR THESE SHOWS!
An uncompromising tall-tale for the 21st century, Kevin Smith’s Tusk divided critics and audiences upon release, but has all the makings of a cult classic. Shock-jock podcaster Wallace (Justin Long) journeys way up into Manitoba to interview an eccentric mariner (Michael Parks), who kidnaps Wallace and submits him to a bloody walrus-reconstruction surgery. His best friend and girlfriend hire an even more bizarre French Canadian ex-detective (Johnny Depp) to find their missing friend in the Great White North. This unexpectedly heartfelt monster movie and Smith-brand raunchy comedy is preposterous in the best way, as it was conceptualized in real time on an episode of Smith’s own SModcast. Also, expect a carpet-bombing of Canada jokes.
“Kevin Smith traces the fine line between man and beast in a bizarro midnight movie built around a career-crowning performance from the great Michael Parks.” – Scott Foundas, Variety
“A weird, unpredictable movie that still feels like only Smith could have made it.” – Eric Kohn, IndieWire
“Michael Parks continues to prove his exceptional talent, versatility and willingness to go all out for whatever role he takes on” – Mark Bell, Film Threat
“Tusk lands close to Human Centipede territory in gross-out-ness – a warning, not a complaint – but it also has a genuinely haunting quality” – Clark Collis, Entertainment Weekly
