I've never seen it so what do I know? Maybe it's brilliant. They have Freddy Got Fingered playing on The Criterion Channel, and if I'm reading this correctly it's their most popular title.
Oh, I see. They're featuring Razzie-"winning" films.
Irredeemable affront to good taste? Or subversive Dada masterpiece? Critically reviled upon its release but increasingly recognized for its undeniable, go-for-broke audacity, Tom Green’s infamous gross-out comedy is a true cinematic Rorschach test. Described by Green himself as the “touching story of a young man who desperately wants to make his daddy proud,” FREDDY GOT FINGERED casts the writer-director-star as Gord, an unemployed wannabe cartoonist whose desperate attempts to please his father (Rip Torn) lead him into all sorts of misadventures—whether it’s getting way too friendly with a horse on a stud farm, creating his own form of sausage-based performance art, or wreaking havoc inside a hospital delivery room.
Maybe Dada just wasn't very good.
