Tales from the Crapper is a 2004 film directed by Lloyd Kaufman and starring Kaufman himself, alongside James Gunn, Julie Strain, and Elizabeth Johnson. The movie follows the story of two filmmakers, Abraham and Michael, who are on a mission to find the elusive Fecal Matter. Said to be an incredibly rare material that can be used to create the greatest movie ever made, Abraham and Michael are convinced that finding it will be the key to their success.

As they journey through the seedy underbelly of Hollywood, they encounter a cast of eccentric characters, including a washed-up porn star, a mad scientist, and a time traveler. Along the way, they also encounter a rival filmmaker who will stop at nothing to get her hands on the Fecal Matter and make her own movie.

Each new encounter brings with it a new story, or "tale," that is increasingly bizarre and surreal. From a group of cannibals living in the hills of Hollywood, to an old Western saloon with a deadly secret, the tales are all interconnected and lead up to a wild and explosive finale.

Kaufman, who is also the co-founder of Troma Entertainment, brings his signature style of over-the-top humor and outrageousness to Tales from the Crapper. The film is a gory and raunchy romp through the seedy side of Hollywood, filled with all the sex, violence, and bodily fluids that have become synonymous with Troma films.

Despite its low-budget and often crude production values, Tales from the Crapper manages to be both funny and entertaining, thanks in large part to the enthusiastic performances of its cast. Kaufman himself is particularly memorable as the bumbling and hapless Abraham, while Strain brings her trademark sex appeal to the role of the porn star with a heart of gold.

However, there are some drawbacks to the film. The plot itself is somewhat convoluted and difficult to follow at times, with numerous characters and subplots vying for attention. Additionally, the film's reliance on shock value and gross-out humor may not be to everyone's taste.

Overall, Tales from the Crapper is a fun and irreverent film that is sure to appeal to fans of Troma's unique brand of humor. While it may not be for everyone, those who are willing to embrace its outrageousness are sure to find plenty to enjoy.

Tales from the Crapper is a 2004 science fiction movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 30 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.0.
