"Human Cake" is a 22.5-minute live action video that was released in early August and it says a lot about our (online) society that a film like this racks up 5 million views in 2 months approximately. The story can be summarized quickly. A couple guys bake a cake including all kinds of atrocities, such as pee and pubic hair and eat it afterward (do they really? maybe it's all fake, I would not be surprised) and of course they throw up. Heard stuff like that before? That's right. These guys are the poor non-daring version of the Jackass crew apparently. The director and one of the writers is George Miller and even if it is an Australian production, he has nothing to do with the guy who made "Mad Max". But back to this one here. I already wrote earlier that it may all be fake and the fact that this video includes known scam artist JoeySalads makes it even more likely. What else is there to say. Oh yeah, the camera work is really bad too and honestly I cannot see anybody here have a respectable or long career in the industry judging from what I saw here. And even if the rating here on IMDb has clearly been vote-stuffed (9.9 by over a 1,000 voters), I must say stay far far away from this piece of garbage. If you have no talent, you need to try to get attention via disgusting and shocking publicity stunts. From that perspective, the gang clearly succeeded. But it has nothing to do with art or satire no matter how hard you try to see it in here.
