A story about family, addiction, missing children, and stuff up the butt.

Listen in as me and my returning guest, Chris, talk through this intriguing, butt-centric, and well crafted indie-noir.

Written and directed by Tyler Cornack (Tiny Cinema and The Pocketeers), The New York Times called the film a "hilariously bawdy, intermittently inspired act of vivacious vulgarity" and the Austin Chronicle said it was "a surprisingly tender bizarro comedy that works because it plays the strangeness straight." Both are absolutely right, but it's the latter that nails the reason why this film works so damn well.

It tells the story of Chip Gutchell (played by director Cornack) who works a job where everyone in the office is disconcertingly bubbly, his wife is distant and might be having an affair, and he's a new father to boot. After visiting his doctor and receiving his first prostate exam, Chip discovers a thrill and escape from the monotony of his life: things feel good in his butt. From there he spirals down a hole (no pun intended) of addiction, gradually putting bigger things inside himself until to goes too far.

Chip goes clean and stops his habit, and joins A.A. since there is no specific group for his particular addiction. Things are calm in his world until one day Detective Russel Fox (played exquisitely by Tyler Rice) joins the group to battle his own demons and to look into a missing persons case...

This film is so well done and serious in its absurdity that it should be required viewing at every film school.

The film is currently available on Amazon, IMDb TV, and Blu-ray.
