The Mortified Man

Mike Dennert's credit card advance-funded 1997 short based on a true story about a man in Kansas who fell into an outhouse while trying to retrieve his money. According to the blurb attached to this YouTube upload, William S. Burroughs said of this film before he died: "first you laugh. Then you gag on your laughter. All of a sudden, it's not funny at all. It's horrible. Horrible and sad. It's Fate." Then evidently Hunter S. Thompson went on to say: "This is a good film. Too good, actually: Extremely Disturbing." That sure is a lot of review.
