Is it watchable? Enjoyable? Interesting?

I´ve read about it and want to watch it. From what I´ve heard and read it is a pretty bizarre film.

it's streaming on shudder. i've considered watching it a handful of times since it was added last year, but always gave it a pass when i glanced at its metacritic score. had no idea clinton was in it, though. i'll probably give it a watch tonight. it should make quite a double-bill with the takashi miike film i'm half-way through right now.

Can you spot Clinton in that collage? He's in there!

If you like something like "Society" https://en.wikipedia.org/...ety_(film)

and the works of Ryan Trecartin: https://vimeo.com/trecartin

And love Eraserhead and Videodrome type fandom, were cool with "Sorry to Bother You" turning into a John Carpenter like surrealist horror (or was it like Pinocchio?)

Then you might like this! But there's a lot of doo doo.

Gonna say that Clinton is wearing the round glasses, short hair, bump on the forehead.

i watched it earlier this evening.

i don't have it in me to try to make sense out of this or attempt a review, but here are some notes i made while watching kuso:

takashi miike grossness.

also brought 80s melt movies to mind at times.
cronenbergy orifices, mucus, semen-ish looking stuff.

occasionally pretty funny. or at least, it made me laugh in a 'tim and eric' sort of way, which is one of my favourite ways to laugh.
it's like if john waters tried to remake 'kentucky fried movie' as a melt film.
too darkly lit in places in some of the early scenes, i found, though when it wasn't dark, i was often truly revolted by what i saw, so careful what you wish for, i suppose.

i kinda loved it, and, honestly, i wish i could meet a woman who would consider this an ideal date movie.

I feel the Geaorge Clinton part was truly hilarious... and revolting. "Melt Movie" thats a genre?

the clinton scene was definitely one of the highlights.

melt films are i guess what you would call a small sub-genre of horror films, mostly released in the 80s that feature bodies melting, deforming or breaking down in some manner. i think society, which you mentioned above, is often lumped in with them. street trash is one of the other more famous examples. streaming on shudder if you use that service. it's not great or even half good i suppose, but it has some fun practical effects scenes.
