A critical debacle of legendary proportions, Tom Green's Directorial Debut "Freddy Got Fingered" earned its controversial star a series of Razzie Awards and a rare Zero Star review from Roger Ebert. The consensus appeared to be that Green's notorious gross-out humor and manchild persona made for one of the worst comedies ever produced.
After Tom Green softened his image by appearing in more broad comedies like Chasing Harvard, curious viewers have started to reevaluate that bizarre comedy as potentially being an avant-garde send-up of the comedy landscape of the time.
Was Tom Green falsely accused of a heinous crime, not unlike Rip Torn's character? Or should Anthony Michael Hall have forced him to keep his day job?
