UNLOCKED: Absurdist Humor and Horror Collide in Butt Boy and Tiny Cinema w/ Tyler Cornack and Ryan Koch

On this edition of Parallax Views, a previously locked to Patreon subscribers episode of the show. I spoke with Ryan Koch and Tyler Cornack about their absurdist horror-comedy Butt Boy and their series (now a movie) Tiny Cinema. Butt Boy follows an unassuming man who becomes addicted to making things disappear up his butt. When children go missing a detective slowly unravels the horrific secrets of... the Butt Boy. What makes Butt Boy an interesting genre feature is that despite the ridiculous plot, the movie is played straight. It's a serial killer story with a weird sci-fi element that is never explained. How do people get abducted up a guy's butt? Not answered. But played completely straight throughout. Which, at the end of the day, is the joke. The fact that the film is also technically well made makes it all the more bizarre. It's a crime/cop thriller, serial killer horror movie with a comedic twist. SYNOPSIS FROM IMDB: Detective Fox loves work and alcohol. After going to AA, his sponsor, Chip, becomes the main suspect in his investigation of a missing kid. Fox also starts to believe that people are disappearing up Chip's butt. In order to preserve the quality of the audio there's no Producer's credits on this episode. My apologies, but due to the surviving files of this only being available in video and having to convert to audio I would have had to further compromise audio quality if I'd added in the Producer's credits. Producer's credits will be back in the next episode. Some minor audio glitches may be present.
