Jai B Noble willinghams performance carries it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/12/24 Full Review Audience Member The worst ending in history, just garbage, all the achievements in the game lead to nothing. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member (( SPOILERS!!!! But this flick suuucks)) Independent films for quite some time have been seen as an alternative film genre that tells offkilter and taboo stories you don't normally see in wide release movies. Unfortunately Indie films have also earned a bad reputation for being vapid art that is offensive for offensiveness' sake, and it's on this side of the genre hemisphere we find "The Corndog Man". "The Corndog Man" is a ten-to-fifteen minute short film that contains an hour of filler. A mysterious caller Corndog Man starts trolling a racist, boat salesman named Ace Barker. Corndog ,who never gives his name calls posing as a prospective customer, but soon begins to incessantly call Ace and tell him facts that let Ace know, Corndog is watching him. The phone head games continue for fifty minutes of this film. Corndog continues to hound Ace; reminding him of evil deeds long forgotten, and it's learned that Corndog is out for revenge. He also tells Ace he knows his secret of being a closeted homosexual who has sex with black transsexuals(.......Yeah). Resurfaced memories, and revealed secrets; along with Corndogs' nonstop calling eventually lead to Ace having a mental breakdown in a very anti-climactic ending. Ace spends the movie answering telephones, spitting out racial epithets, and threatening Corndog with violence. The real issue with this movie is the smut shots( peep hole into restroom, and Ace receiving a blowjob from his transsexual girlfriend) and dead time. Although the phone calls go on throughout the film, it's nonstop with no other action for about fourty to fifty minutes( I felt like I could hear the phone ringing once the movie ended). This whole series of calls could've been portrayed in five to ten minutes by using captions saying a day or week has gone by since the last phone conversation. So much of the dialogue is unnecessary to the plot that it feels like they were improvising ,and had nothing to say. I'm actually really disappointed by this film, I had low expectations going into it and even those expectations weren't met. Still beneath all the gutter rhetoric, and racial slurs; there's a decent revenge story screaming to break free unfortunately this movie is as palatable as stale corndogs. 1.5/5 Why is it called Corndog Man? His license plate says Corndog and everyone says corndogs in this movie ....................Yeah Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I love it. And it was only filmed 50 miles from where I live. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member My friend fell asleep watching this movie and that's a shame. Noble Willingham delivers this character 100%. Its just a shame that the rest of the movie doesn't live up to the standard he sets from the opening credits. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member deddy...what do you do for an itchy butt! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
