With the recent news that it would be remade by Danny McBride, Drafthouse Films will be bringing the original KLOWN to American audiences on July 27th.
Plot: In what critics are hailing as “the funniest movie of the year!” (IFC), KLOWN follows two wildly inappropriate friends – played by celebrated Danish comedians Frank Hvam and Casper Christensen – as they run amok through the countryside plowing through endless awkward confrontations and unspeakable debaucheries. Hopelessly wrongheaded Frank “kidnaps” the 12-year-old nephew of his pregnant girlfriend in an eager attempt to prove his fatherhood potential. The odd duo joins Frank’s best friend Casper on a canoe trip that is actually serving as cover for his true intentions of a sex-fueled, debauched weekend. From exclusive brothels, hospitalizations, armed robberies and even prison, the three paddle downstream from one chaotic misadventure to the next culminating in a surprise sentimental portrait of friendship and a final shocking reveal you won’t believe.
This newly released trailer is essentially just a scene from the movie. It is absolutely NSFW and involves Frank, Casper, a female friend, and a finger.
From what I have heard and read about this movie, that may be the tamest scene in the whole film. If you live in New York, Austin, or Los Angeles, you will get a chance to see it on the big screen. Everyone else, it will be on demand on July 27th.
