Another crazed offering from Troma, this time as distributors rather than production team.Jim Jarsen brings us the bizarre tale of two flatmates whose relationship is strained to breaking point because of the inability of one to, literally, keep his trousers up: Wade is lazy, over-weight but generally cheerful. His only real flaw is that his arse cleavage is virtually always on show. His roommate, Brian, is planning a romantic evening with his girlfriend, but Wade keeps interrupting them. Brian's girlfriend is none too pleased, and has to leave, so sickened is she by the sight of his crack. Brian intends to propose and get her to move in, but is worried that she will refuse due to her intolerance of Wade's posterior. As luck would have it, Brian accidentally electrocutes Wade whilst he's taking a bath, paving the way for the marriage. Unfortunately for him, Wade's sister is a practitioner of voodoo, and resurrects her overweight brother to wreak revenge, and the only way he can ever return to the Earth to lie in peace is to slaughter the man whose hands he died by.....Blackly comic, irreverent and bizarre, this is a much better Troma movie than the title suggests.As ever, the dialogue is atrocious, the acting barely credible, but the general feel is one of enjoyment and, it seems, a good time was had by all.Enjoyable nonsense.

Brian (Doug Ciskowski) just wants some time alone with his girlfriend (Kathy Wittes). Unfortunately, his roommate is a real pain in the ass. Wade "Buttcrack" Jenkins (Caleb Kreischer) just can't keep his pants up. He should be a plumber. After a plan to get him out of the house so Brian could propose failed, he lost it and accidentally kills Wade.But, Wade's sister (Cindy Geary) is a witch and brings Wade back from the dead. Now, we have a buttcrack zombie on the loose. Not a lot of gore, but what you would expect in a cheap film.Sure, it is low budget, but it is funny, and the performance of Mojo Nixon as Preacher Man Bob is over the top.

I agree with Jack The Ripper 1888. This really is a great little movie. If you don't like really cheap, silly movies then stay away. How anyone could watch a movie called Buttcrack, and expect it to be serious or scary is totally beyond me.I've watched a lot of Troma, and a lot of other indie "horror" and horror/comedy. Most of it doesn't have half the energy and wit of this. Of course most of it's downright retarded. It's supposed to be. A few people got together and decided to have a good time making a movie. That movie happened to be entertaining because known to themselves at the time or not, they actually had some talent for making movies.Some of it they obviously got lucky, but I think it was their genuine enthusiasm and enjoyment of what they were doing that carried over in nearly every scene. The cast just let loose and bust out some damn funny performances because you can tell they were relaxed and working in a fun environment.The story is dumb, but probably based on a real person/experience I bet. The script or improv is blessed with the infectious spirit of being high and getting the joke of life.If you take the movie for what it is, and not bring high expectations, or any expectations then you might be one of the lucky ones who gets this kind of movie. You're probably an awesome person, at least now and again, and you can join me in laughing at the poor folk who can't enjoy such beautifully simple pleasures as having a laugh at yourself, the world and at your friends sweaty buttcrack coming between you and your girl.Read that last part again and tell me how that can fail the funny test?

What can I say? I loved this movie! I can see where it wouldn't be for everybody, but it was for me. I don't know when I've laughed so hard at things so dumb, but this movie has plenty of dumb funny scenes. A particular favorite is the ride in the car when Wade swears Ken is gay. I totally love it. Yeah sure, it's low budget, no big stars, Troma, sub par acting, but come on! Isn't that also what makes it great? Does every movie have to be academy award worthy before it is "good?" The badness of this movie is what is good about it. The fact that a movie like this even got made is a good F*** to Hollywood and all its hype. I hope there will be a part 2.
