Film Friday: Swiss Army Man


source/imdb






Guys....this movie. 
It is bizarre and weird and lovely and sweet and dark and whimsical and unnerving. 

So...yes, this movie is known as the farting/erection-having corpse movie. And yes, there is plenty of farting and plenty of awesomely terrifying erections.

Paul Dano plays Hank, a deeply depressed, sort-of suicidal man, while Daniel Radcliffe plays Manny, an essentially magical corpse.

Apparently this movie has been quite divisive (evidently a lot of people at the Sundance and Cannes film festivals walked out, while others stayed and cheered).
And yes, this is the divisive farting corpse with an erection movie. But that is SO not what it's about.
Best way to sum it up: 




And it IS super fun. I laughed so hard at points that Husband got a bit concerned, and I got teary-eyed at several points throughout. Fucking brilliant.






Rated R, currently available on Netflix
Heads Up: I would say adult themes. Kind of adult content. (Fake) erections. Death stuff, sex stuff, maybe language?
