It’s something of a miracle that the movie Tusk even exists, as Kevin Smith himself will agree. One of the wackiest horror movies to come along – and actually make its way into theaters! – in recent years, Tusk saw Smith bringing to life a bizarre concept he conjured up with a little help from his drug of choice, centered on a man who turns another man into… a walrus.
The late Michael Parks played the man and Justin Long played the other man, and the film came to a close with Parks’s character being killed off and Long’s character, now fully transformed into a gruesome human-walrus hybrid, seemingly living out his days in a wildlife sanctuary. Where could the story possibly go from there, you might be asking yourself?
During a Twitch session this week, Smith explained that he has an idea for a potential Tusk 2 while also noting that “it’s possible” we could see the return of Wallace the Walrus.
“I’m shocked we got away with Tusk one but I’ll be honest with you, I do have a story for Tusk 2,” Smith revealed. “The great Michael Parks, who played Howard Howe, the guy who turns Wallace into a Walrus, sadly passed away a couple of years ago. Amazing actor that I got to work with twice. But, in the ending of Tusk, if I wanted to be a commercial filmmaker which apparently I’ve never wanted to be, I would have ended the film when Guy La Pointe comes in and raises his shotgun and you’d just hear the walrus [scream] and we cut to black.”
He continued, “There’s a version of Tusk 2 that you do where… you cut to the present, and somebody else gets sucked into the spider’s web. The house, you hear stories, and when you get to the house, the new Howard Howe is Wallace, who has gotten out of the walrus trappings and stuff and is obviously disturbed by his entire ordeal and is now doing it to others. So there’s a way to do Tusk 2 where Justin becomes Michael Parks’s character. Wallace becomes, sort of, the new Howard Howe. So yea, that’s possible. Tusk 2 is possible. Obviously I’ve thought about it.”
