INTERVIEW: Tyler Cornack on his movie Butt Boy, the colonic tonic we’ve been waiting for

9th June 2020 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Tyler Cornack’s thriller-comedy-horror Butt Boy – the film that launched a thousand puns – is deadpan funny with a crazy premise, as detective Russel Fox (Tyler Rice) tries to bring to justice a man he suspects is kidnapping children by absorbing them up his bottom.
