GUTS

About This Movie

GUTS (2021) is a strange little piece that melds comedy and horror in an offbeat way. The premise alone grabs your attention – a guy with his guts hanging out, desperate for a promotion. It’s got this absurd tone that really plays with the ridiculousness of its situation. The pacing is all over the place, sometimes slow when it dives into the character's psyche, but then it hits you with these wild, gross-out moments that are genuinely funny. Practical effects are pretty great; you can tell they had fun with the gore. Performances range from earnest to absolutely over-the-top, which just adds to the charm of it all. It’s distinct in how it balances laughs and squirm-worthy scenes without going too far into either realm.
