My quick rating - 4,1/10. Don't listen to any nonsense about how violent/gore filled this is. It just isn't. The movie leads itself to being a sequel within a new movie premise taken a step further from how part 2 was to 1.

What parents need to know
Parents need to know that Tusk is a horror comedy written and directed by Kevin Smith, based on one of his own podcasts. The horror part is very gruesome and dark, not unlike The Human Centipede, but with some (supposed) comic relief from time to time. There's lots of blood, some horrific operations, and both physical and emotional torture.
What's the story?
Popular podcaster Wallace Bryton ( Justin Long) makes a living making fun of people, including a poor kid who accidentally sliced off his leg while performing lightsaber moves. He travels to Canada to interview the kid but meets with some bad luck.
Is it any good?
The idea for Kevin Smith 's latest film came from his own podcast, and it smacks of a dare, rather than any real desire to tell a story. It seems as if the idea for TUSK must have been a good deal funnier to the folks behind the scenes than it is to the audience; in fact, it's not even clear which parts are meant to be funny.
