Synopsis

Based on the best selling novels by Andy Griffiths, THE DAY MY BUTT WENT PSYCHO is a hilarious animated comedy featuring the adventures of 12 year old Zack and his best buddy who’s also his butt, Deuce. In a world where humans and butts live cheek to cheek, Zack’s plan is to become the very best butt fighter in history! Together with Eleanor, the daughter of Silas Sterne, the actual very best butt fighter in history, Zack and Deuce’s daily lives are a roller coaster comedy with every waking moment dedicated to having the ultimate best buddy fun — which includes sometimes battling the evil Great White Butt to defeat his plans of taking over the town. THE DAY MY BUTT WENT PSYCHO is a non stop, laugh out loud and crazy fun buddy comedy.
