Review: The Naked Man

Dir: Who Cares

Cast: They are all hanging their heads in shame

Reviewed By: Clay

Plot: This movie is so bad I don’t even know if I want to degrade myself by discussing the plot. The picked-on kid at school grows up to be the chiropractor/professional wrestler next door. When his parents are killed by a guy with spinal-bifida (god only knows how you spell it) and the fat Elvis, our hero goes on a murderous rampage. You asked for it, you got it.

DVD Special Features: Not available on DVD…. This should tell you something.

The Good: Any movie that has a pill-popping fat Elvis is halfway home to being art in my book. I have no idea what the King has to do with anything, but he is in the film and has a great scene where his guts are pulled out by an airplane engine.

The second great feature is the professional wrestler/chiropractor twist. With a name like the Naked Man how can a professional wrestler lose? The Naked Man has a great costume but that is the end of it.

The Bad: There is so much bad in this film I don’t know where to start. The greatest crime of this film is that it is boring. I found myself compelled to fast forward through vast chunks of nothing. I like weird films but this whole film seems contrived and tries too hard.

Amazingly enough, one of the Cohen brothers had a hand in laying this turd of a film. I love the Cohen Brothers but this movie is a poor showing. How did they manage to screw up a professional wrestling movie with a fat Elvis in it? That film nearly writes itself.

If you rent this film after reading this review you are asking for it. When it’s all over you will be wondering what possessed you to ignore my warnings. Don’t do it, I beg you.

Bottom Line: This film tastes of ass. I really wish Frank had reviewed it.

Rating: Four Boxes of wine
