Stressed out milquetoast office worker Duncan (an excellent and engaging performance by Ken Marino) discovers that he has an angry little beast named Milo living in his intestines who occasionally comes out of his rear end to kill anyone who causes Duncan to feel either mad or upset. Director/co-writer Jacob Vaughan relates the enjoyably off-the-wall story at a zippy pace, maintains a likeable quirky tone throughout, gets lots of laughs from the hysterical sense of no-holds-barred outrageous humor, and even manages a few tender and touching moments amid all the jaw-dropping lunacy. The adorably grotesque Milo serves as a strong metaphor for the potentially toxic and destructive consequences wrought by letting one's deeply repressed id and subconscious run amuck as well as the need to face your emotional and psychological demons head on in order to make peace with said demons. Moreover, it's acted with aplomb by an enthusiastic cast: Gillian Jacobs as Duncan's sweet and concerned wife Jillian, Peter Stormare as flaky therapist Highsmith, Mary Kay Place as Duncan's loopy mother Beatrice, and Patrick Warburton as jerky boss Phil. An absolute hoot.

It's hard to believe that a writer presented a script for this to a Hollywood movie team and received a green light to move forward with casting and shooting. And yet, here it is, in all of it's glory, a big pile of crapola. It was so bad that i just had to watch it to it's end to take in the full load of it's unbelievably asinine (no pun intended)story then sit back and wonder how junk like this actually got funded and scripted. Well, maybe they will approve and shoot a sequel because there has been worse, no too much worse, but there is some to be found..Catwoman maybe? I dunno but this is junk..

Bad Milo is another great example of what is right in horror comedy the last few years! Its a perfect blend of bad one liners, potty humor, heart and gore. Who would have thought that a film that teaches us about Anus Mythology, could be so awesome?! And I can't believe I am saying this about something that is borne out of a mans ass, but damn Milo is adorable. I swear by the end of the film you're going to want a Milo all of your own, poor misunderstood lil guy! Duncan is an average good guy, living the average good guy life. He has a decent job, a good woman, and what looks like a okay life. He struggles with some tummy trouble, mom offers remedies, doctors try to help, and eventually he ends up unhappily in therapy where we can get to root of his problems. Pretty quickly this film pulls you in with a great opening scene, and then it keeps pace through the entire film, rotating between great blood soaked moments and humor sometimes mixing the two perfectly in such a disgustingly delicious way that you may feel both grossed out and ashamed for laughing at such wretchedness. You will also find yourself shocked by how much you want to hug this little ass borne, doe eyed, killing machine, i swear I even got teary at one point for the lil fellow! It was awful!, but it goes to show the amount of emotion that is in this film, not what you would expect from a story like this one.If you haven't watched this film yet definitely add it to the list, it is a gem! The cast is made up of comedy veterans who bring this film to a whole new level of funny, and the gore is very effective with some scenes really looking incredibly good. I will definitely be pulling this one out again for years to come. It just goes to prove stress kills, but sometimes its kills the other guy!!!

A horror comedy centered on a guy (Ken Marino) who learns that his unusual stomach problems are being caused by a demon living in his intestines.While not a great film, this is a pretty good film with an impressive ensemble cast of recognizable faces (Peter Stormare, Stephen Root, Patrick Warburton, etc.). I could easily see this earning a small cult following.The outtakes on the DVD are interesting because it shows how much was apparently improvised and ad-libbed. I am surprised more was not added into the film, because the best parts were when the characters rambled and did their shtick. The butt demon part was cool, but nothing compared to the humor.I sensed a strong similarity with "Basket Case", and although this is far from a rip off, I wonder if they were inspired in any way... I would be shocked if there was no connection whatsoever.
