Otto; Or Up With Dead People
There’s a trailer for the film Otto; Or Up With Dead People up on the Official Website, OttoTheZombie.de.
I very well may have to eat my words from an earlier post where a debate arose regarding the sexual content of the movie and the way the press handled it at Sundance, dismissing it as “Gay Porn”. I did see testicles in the trailer, something not so often shown outside the porn industry. In the interest of fairness, I don’t see why male nudity hasn’t made it into mainstream movies the way female nudity has, but maybe a movie like this will change things. But, maybe not.

Holy shit. That freaked me out…. seriously. I’m like seriously disturbed.
About the nudity, being a straight female, I found it completely awesome.
This film still looks better shot than a lot of indie zombie films that roll across my screen. On the subject of the “junk”, nobody seem to really mind when Harvey Keitel’s “schlop” was slapping across the screen on more than one of his films, like The Piano or Bad Lieutenant, or when Viggo Mortensen fought in the bathhouse with his “kids” flying all over in Eastern Promises. And what about the The Brown Bunny? Nobody seemed to mind that (other than the Christian Right). I would guess that most people aren’t really offended by the male nudity, but the homosexual sex aspect of it, in this film. It seems like men don’t really seem to mind balls flapping around when there’s straight sex involved.
Erin – About the nudity, being a straight female, I found it completely awesome. – To me, this only seems fair, considering the amount of female nudity and girl on girl that the horror genre piles into every other film (at least).
Nate – Exactly! Finally we get a shot of some male “parts”
I’m not talking about dudes’ equipment in movies, that’s becoming old hat. I’m talkin’ about seeing a guys business in the trailer. If the coin purse is prevalent in the trailer, it’s gotta be all over the movie, at least that’s what trailers are supposed to make you think.
I’m cracking up up over the term “coin purse”!
i think i am going to start calling my sack my coin purse… i love that! haha
