It's not out of the realm of possibility that Freddy Got Fingered will receive a remastered release as part of the Criterion Collection in the near future (it was streaming on their streaming service briefly in 2024). This sentence would read as farcical as anything in Tom Green's 2001 disasterpiece just a few years ago. However, like any critically reviled film upon release, the Canadian sketch comedian's first and last directorial effort has been reclaimed as a cult classic and is now regarded as a gonzo masterpiece. There's no denying the revolting nature of Freddy Got Fingered, and its crass humor has no intention of getting on anyone's good side. One's mileage may drastically vary, but the enduring power of Green's black comedy is more than just a simple "so bad it's good" appreciation. Even if you're disgusted, you just have to hand it to Green—he somehow received major studio money for this insane work of art.
