I don't want to ever see it again, and the only thing that soothes the pain is watching others share in the trauma.

My friend stumbled onto this movie by accident and she was scarred for life by it. I've only seen reviews, but I understand because body horror freaks us both out. We ended up swearing to each other that if anything like this happened to us and it couldn't be reversed (still calling bullshit on them not even trying because I'm sure at least some restoration could be done), then we would mercy kill each other, like /good/ friends. Anyway, this movie is bizarre and I love it for that but also refuse to watch it alone XD

I was first made aware of this movie about a year after its release and have since only seen reviews like this, clips, and a plot synopsis during an unfortunate time when I googled it out of curiosity (and thus of course got the lovely google images lineup- "the picture hit my brain harder" YES!). I literally haven't been able to look at/listen to actual walruses since. I can't stand to even watch oceanic/marine life documentaries featuring the real animal. I know it sounds like an extreme reaction, and it is, but I can't quite explain why I find myself not only psychologically but physically repulsed by the mere thought of them/this piece of detritus movie. It's... baffling. Especially considering I normally have a VERY high tolerance for most subgenres of horror, mainly because I could make bingo cards for how many tropes they usually dabble in, but This Damn Movie... It got me, like no other. I dissociate if I'm exposed to too much of it (that wailing, the suit, etc) and nope on out of my body. It really is unprecedented. As for the nightmare, well... I'm shocked that happened at all. I can name three movies in total that have managed to dig their way into my subconscious so deeply that they invaded my dreams. It hasn't happened in years.

I was wrong, I was deeply disturbed and uncomfortable the entire time, and the ending will always piss me off. I'd never seen a movie that made me that uncomfortable before. So basically, good luck Amanda lol

"I don't wanna die in Canada" iconic line haha

Personally, I think Tusk was so messy that I don't know if it was intended to be genuinely disturbing or body-modificationally hilarious. It ends up somewhere in the indifferent middle.

I was genuinely disturbed when I watched the movie but for me, as far as the comedy, it fell too flat up against the… disturbingness. I think that it could’ve been less heavy handed with the comedy and that would of probably made it even funnier, idk…

The worst part of the movie was when Johnny Depp refused to put Wallace out of his misery. There’s no coming back from that shit. A bullet in the skull would be mercy. But mercy is not a word Johnny Depp knows.

Amanda: "No, grandma. I don't sell items on the internet, I sell myself!" Nana: "Oh."

I like reading the plots of movies I know I’ll never watch. It satisfies my curiosity and I don’t have nightmares at night, it works for me. I had a hard time even reading the synopsis for this one, and then I made the mistake of going to google images. First thing I saw was the stupid fucking walrus suit. It’s haunted me ever since.

This movie instantly activated my fight or flight instinctive. The first time I came across it I wasn’t okay for the rest of the day and a few days after that. It’s such a visceral experience.

I love how most of this video is Amanda convincing herself the guy wants to get intimate with a walrus. It's hilarious.

i always saw Tusk as Kevin Smith seeing the Human Centipede and thinking "how can i make this weirder?"

I'll never watch this movie--I'm not great with body horror--so thankee very much for helping me fill this blindspot in my pop culture knowledge.

This movie scarred me so badly 😭 I watched this with my mom, sister, and boyfriend, and I think we all silently agreed to never talk about it ever again. I keep it tucked very far away and avoid any walrus imagery as much as possible.

I’ve always been partial to the detail that the walrus suit body mods are totally reversible (as the corpses are de-walrused *before* being dumped - which implies the walrus hide is stitched on like couch upholstery, and can be removed as such, and not fused to the body.) Anyways. His friends know this. He just sucks so bad they choose to keep him like this. The movie never brings this up again.

@@alisaurus4224 no idea!! That’s horrifying, isn’t it? However, when wearing the walrus suit, the villain had the same bulk as Wallace, and he was able to rip through it like paper (or flesh) without encountering any barriers, so I think the movie literally forgot to account for that. I’m going to assume though that it’s murder victim meat padding the costume, but I think that’s putting more thought into it than the movie did. I think hypothetically with the right surgery, you could unanchor the arms the same way they were anchored, but honestly, it’s been like… years since I’ve seen this! So, I’ll take your word for it :)) but IRL disabled people exist and have good lives without full arm mobility (also without legs) so I guess Wallace’s biggest issue would be mental trauma, after a lot of OT and physical therapy. He should’ve tried not being an edgelord podcaster and maybe his friends would’ve googled it before dumping his weird ass in a zoo.

Yes! Did the surgeon change his stomach and liver and everything for walrus guts?? He’s still got human nutritional needs… i get the idea was “walrus or nothing” but c’mon

when i was in middle school my sister stayed in a few different treatment centers for eating disorders and at one of them, for reasons unknown, the staff let them watch Tusk. when she came home we watched it together and i really liked it, just because of how absurd and ultimately horrifying the premise is

I've had this weird fear of walruses, sea lions, and manatee's since I was a kid and this movie is very much in the not helping column

Few things make me physically sick just by looking at them… THIS WAS ONE OF THEM

My dad has told us to watch this for years and I googled just what he looked like after being "turned" into a walrus and felt sick to my stomach and was irrationally afraid that it was based on true events... I'll watch for Amanda, but still I feel so squeamish and disturbed by the whole concept of the movie. 🤢

The fixation on the guy having sex with a walrus was truly hilarious

Sooo, I'm usually really bad with horror movies: I hate jumpscares, I can't bear torture scenes (or even sounds) and most kinds of visible open wounds make me feel iffy at best - but this? Would I sit down by myself and watch this? No. But I was genuinely surprised by how funny I thought this was and how freaked out a lot of people seemed to get in comparison. The blatant comedy alleviates a lot of the tension and makes it a lot easier to remind myself that it's just costume and makeup, not real flesh. Edit: the cast really did a phenomenal job, too, they really made this movie when it would have been just too easy to break it

This was one hell of a way to be reminded that Amanda was Canadian.

Holy shit. You brought me back to middle school. So my best friend got intro trouble because she made the tusk guy the background on all computers she possibly good. It caused a major change of rules on when students can use the computers 😂🤣TUSK defined my 8th grade experience 😂💀

I think this movie traumatized me and I haven't even watched it, Just watched reviews of it. But yeah totally unfair that he can turn into a walrus without mutilating himself. But probably because as you see a "non mutilated" can escape the suit... I also look for logic . What I don't understand is why he is in a suit at all seeing how when he first killed his walrus he was human?? so maybe to make it more fair? listen I don't need sleep I need answers.

Justin Long as a walrus gave me nightmares after watching this for the first time. 😅 I had to make other people watch it so they could experience the horror I had. The ending fucked me up. I couldn't believe they just left him like that.

I'm still mad he didn't call the cops. Then again a guy who goes to locations on the signs in public bathrooms doesn't exactly have a high iq.

I have a frustrating relationship with this film. On one hand, it’s a bizarre body horror that’s genuinely disturbing and unforgettable. On the other hand, it feels like the movie just gave up after he became a walrus. It was an abrupt leap from losing his leg to being sewn into the suit. Then there wasn’t too much to do with him at that point until his awful friends find him. The horror and comedy was so unbalanced that I got whiplash half the time. Smith didn’t help this by keeping scenes too long that didn’t progress anything. And I’m still not over that overly ridiculous ending that went for an emotion it didn’t earn. I wanted to like this movie. Teenage me was so excited to see this film as I was learning that I really liked body horror stories. But for every thing I like about it, there’s something else keeping me from loving it.

I think it could’ve been effective to show at least a couple of stages of the walrus transformation, with Justin waking up more and more mutilated each time.

one time I was talking to a veteran elder goth who had worked on horror films for decades, I asked him what the scariest movie he had ever seen was and Tusk was his answer

Kevin had a whole podcast about crying at Winnie the Pooh, and another about brown recluse spiders coming in on bananas, and he was terrified of them.
