A brutal horror movie that’s been branded ‘worse than The Human Centipede’ is traumatizing viewers.
The Human Centipede was described as ‘the most horrific film ever made’ when it came out in 2009.
The film tells the tale of a twisted surgeon who kidnaps three tourists and sews them together, from mouth to behind, forming a literal ‘human centipede’.
At the time of its release, it was described as ‘twisted’, ‘depraved’ and ‘vile’ – but horror fans think they’ve found an even more disturbing movie.
It’s about a man who is surgically turned into a walrus by an eccentric recluse and it’s leaving viewers ‘literally traumatized’.
The movie was directed by Kevin Smith, who is best known for his work on the cult film Clerks. It stars Justin Long as an unpleasant podcaster who travels to Canada and meets a man who has a strange fascination with walruses.
Though the movie was first released in 2014 to mixed reviews, it has gained popularity on social media.
Since its streaming release, fans have taken to social media to share their thoughts on the ‘unforgettable’ movie.
One TikToker, called Heidi Wong, ranked it as one of the most insane horror movies of all time.
She explained to her 5 million followers: “Out of all the horror movies that I’ve seen, this one gets to me the most.
“It’s about a podcaster who meets a crazy man who wants to turn him into a walrus, as in surgically turn him from a human to a walrus.
“This movie was worse than The Human Centipede to me.”
People in the comments agreed with her, with one replying: “Simply unforgettable.”
“Freaked me out too, actually to this day,” added someone else.
A third user commented: “This will be forever ingrained in my brain and I will never forgive the person who made me watch this.”
One person admitted: “The ending had me literally traumatized.”
A fifth person added: Just watched… please if you’re thinking about it.. don’t. Do not do it.”
In 2022, Long revealed that the director had reached out to him regarding a sequel to Tusk.
He told Slash Film: “He [Smith] texted us all the other day, Haley [Joel Osment] and Genesis [Rodriguez], and he told us that he wanted to do it, and I thought it was a joke.
“And then I realized he was being serious. And then one of the [other] interviewers said, ‘Yeah, he said the same to me.’”
Smith planned for this to be the first installment of his True North anthology trilogy, which will be a series of films based on Canadian myths and culture.
As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, the sequel would’ve been called Yoga Hosers and would have been produced by Smith and Johnny Depp, with their daughters starring as two high school students who have to fight off an evil threat before it ruins their party.
Tusk even features a surprise cameo from Depp, who is under heavy prosthetics and attempts to do a Canadian accent.
His daughter, Lily-Rose Depp also makes an appearance in the movie too.
