Never find yourself in front of a walrus’s Tusk

Should have just listened to the reviews and avoided this one. Tusk is the newest from Kevin Smith, and finds him making a departure from his usual teen-focused poop jokes. It is a horror film, about a juvenile radio jock going to Canada to make a podcast about a person there. He comes across an old man with stories to tell, but ends up becoming said man’s experiment. The old man starts slowly turning the radio dj into a walrus, with skin grafts and whatnot, while he is being sought by friends back home.

A terrible movie, with terrible dialogue and a thin, terrible script. The acting is just as rough. The only highlight is in the last third when inexplicably, Johnny Depp shows up. How this movie got made is beyond me. Don’t waste your time.
