Netflix Self-Torture Experiment Trilogy #27: Postal
Ahh, Uwe Boll. We meet again…
Synopsis from Netflix: A live-action cross between “South Park” and Team America: World Police, this cheeky satire centers on jobless trailer-park resident Dude (Zack Ward). Desperate for dough, Dude and his ethically challenged Uncle Dave (Dave Foley) cook up a scheme to pinch a shipment of Krotchy dolls — the new stuffed talking penis toy — and sell them on eBay. Unfortunately, al-Qaida has the same idea … but plans to lace the toys with avian flu.
My thoughts: Things about this movie that I did not enjoy:
- The opening scene was basically a parody of the 9/11 attacks. Not cool at all.
- I have now unwillingly seen Dave Foley’s penis. Every time I watch The Kids In The Hall from this point forward, I will most likely have flashbacks to this.
- There was an implied homosexual relationship between George W. Bush and Osama Bin Laden. Say what you will about either of those guys, but I am 100% certain that they’re not boning each other and I really don’t need that image in my head.
- I have now unwillingly seen Verne Troyer being raped by monkeys. I will never be able to unsee this. Fuck you, Uwe Boll.
[One out of five stars.]
