[quote="mattw"][quote="Angry_Dragon"]I've been on an "adventure" to that town that the movie supposedly took place in. It had a KFC. Nothing else.[/quote]

The movie was supposed to take place in Xenia, Ohio, but was actually filmed in Nashville (Korine's hometown). A friend knows the Guzak brothers in the film (supposedly, very little acting was involved).

not crap.

i enjoy watching the film, as well as laughing at the people i know. guzaks/skinheads, lil' bryant/midget, jacob/bunny boy.
if i wasn't from nashville and didn't know any of these people i'm not sure what i would think.

from what i was told harmony just started filming and said to do whatever.

I've been after this film for a year. Nowhere in England sells it anymore. I tried ordering it off amazon but the person never came through.

Is it worth paying to get it shipped over from America?

Complete, utter, unadulterated shit. Frequently praised by the plurality of the American population who confuse "offensive" with "high quality art".

If this movie stands above the Tom Green Show on the "I have no talent and I'm simply going to do everything I can to shock you" spectrum, it's not by much.

Curious for more opinions on this. I just watched it the other day, I´m thinking it resonates very differently if you´re not from the US (my case).

Gummo is great. I often wack off to that scene where the kid has sex with the retarded girl. Really GREAT movie. That Hormoney Koresh kid is really groundbreaking, just like my band Quiver of Arrows, and just like my career in the male-male porn industry...

You may know me by my porn name, Troy.

I think my best film was "Rambutt"... any other ones people liked?

And really, all the homophobic remarks are not appreciated, OK? A guy's gotta make a living. K-Y jelly doesn't grow on trees, you know.

You just have to remember when you are watching it that the kid is CGI

This movie is terrible, and I love it. Not crap.

Not Crap, however...

--RUMOR TIME--
Years ago, a friend of mine from Nashville met the late Gummo cinematographer Jean-Yves Escoffier, who claimed that Harmony Korine would go on extended hissy-fits that would stop production for days. Escoffier, not interested in juvenile bull-shittery, apparently took over as director for a substantial portion of the film while Korine locked himself in a trailer or something.

I feel kind of dirty restating something that I can't verify, and I guess it's kinda irresponsible, but I trust my friend 100% that this was told to him by Escoffier.

I fucking love this movie for a number of different reasons...

- "Kitty you smell like a ducet"
- Electrical taping nipples to make them bigger
- Sleep and Burzum soundtrack
- Albino's without toes who are into lowriders and Patrick Swayze
- Lifting "weights" made of rolled up pens and pencils
- dropping candy bars in rancid bathwater and not being deterred
- chair wrestling
- Bikes + BB Guns
- "Rabbit you smell like a pussy"

I thought it was cutlery.
