GROSS OUT is absolutely worthless. I can understand that the entire premise, point, and purpose of the film is to...well..."gross out" the audience, which it does to a degree, but there's just nothing at all entertaining or funny about this juvenile piece of trash.
The Wheezer family children (two sons and a daughter) are entitled to a large inheritance after their father's death, but their step-mother has put a stipulation on them receiving the funds: the kids have one week to put together a video that will make Mother Wheezer puke, and that will be tough to do, as she is a filth-reveling weirdo. In order to get the children to comply, Mrs. Wheezer has compiled surveillance footage of each of the children in "compromising positions", and threatens to turn the material over to the Playboy channel for airing if the three either refuse the challenge, or don't succeed. If the kids don't accomplish their goal within the week time-frame, Mother Wheezer will turn the inheritance over to the homeless. Will the Wheezer kids be able to make her hurl, or will Mother Wheezer give the money to the homeless and humiliate the children in the meantime...
Honestly - who gives a sh!t? GROSS OUT is pretty much like PINK FLAMINGOS if written/directed by John Waters when he was 4 years old and if he were absolutely obsessed with bodily functions. I knew going in not to expect anything from this, so I guess I wasn't disappointed - but other directors like Peter Jackson and the aforementioned Waters, have been able to pull off "gross-out" humor with wit and some semblance of "style", whereas this film is just tedious. It tries way too hard to be offensive, and frankly, it's just boring. I can honestly say I didn't laugh, or even crack a smile throughout the entire run-time of this "film". I personally wouldn't recommend this film to anyone, though it might be slightly entertaining if you got a few people together and got wasted while you watched it - otherwise, GROSS OUT is pretty much unwatchable, not because it's SOOOO "gross", but because it's dull and just plain stupid...2/10
