Did you know Canadian are hung like moose? Now you do, thanks to this new clip from Kevin Smith’s Tusk. The clip shows Justin Long going through Canadian customs where he learns the “Cana-do’s and Cana-don’ts,” which is sort of like the riff on Robert Rodriguez’s “Mexi-can’s”. I like the clip a lot because it has a lot of Smith’s humor, but also takes itself seriously. I hope the movie is just as playful.
In theaters September 19 via A24, Smith’s Human Centipede-esque Tusk (read our review) is about a man (Justin Long) who is surgically turned into a walrus by a mysterious seafarer (Michael Parks).
Wallace (Justin Long) co-hosts a popular podcast with his pal Teddy (Haley Joel Osment), focusing on cruel, mocking cringe humour as part of their mission to keep it “real and raunchy.” After his trip to Winnipeg to interview the “Kill Bill Kid” — a teen whose unfortunate samurai-sword video has gone viral — comes up empty, Wallace decides to make the trip worth his while and find a good story north of the forty-ninth parallel. A handwritten flyer he finds in a bar bathroom leads him to a grizzled old swab (Michael Parks) full of tall tales to share from his life of adventure at sea — and this is where Wallace’s voyage to the Great White North descends into straight-up madness.
The official website will now allow you to “Tuskify yourself” – upload your picture and go full walrus!
