60: Kevin Smith’s ‘Tusk’ Starring Justin Long, Michael Parks

Posted: September 24, 2014 at 9:05 am   /   Film, Local, Reel Spoilers

A slow September rolls on but Kevin Smith certainly gave us something, um…different to talk about thanks to Tusk. It’s an age-old tale of a man and walrus as only he can tell it. But does it only work for Smith aficionados? We will dive in. (Does that count as a walrus pun? I’m not […]
