Let's say it right away: this BAD MILO is a trashy film with interesting content ideas but poorly executed and sloppy in the form, direction and... overall, basically.
A very unlucky forty-year-old employee leading a dull and flat life suddenly finds himself at the mercy of his bad conscience, his "rotten part" that has always been dormant in his guts and materializes in a cross between E.T. and a Gremlins, bringing chaos, destruction, and the need to clean up "in its own way". A disgusting monster that, believe it or not, enters and exits the protagonist's body ...anally (and it's certainly not doll-sized, eh?)!
A movie that starts off well but gradually loses itself in a meandering screenplay, with actions between the amusing and the horrid, often trivial and lacking in impact.
An exaggerated film that in the hands of some A-list director could have become a cult movie but translated as it is becomes a funny trashy parable (with some enlightened psychological theories) diluted here and there with gusts of horror and black humor...but the very worst kind.
An interesting idea, realized "half-assed".
Which remains, in the end, the TRUE protagonist of the whole film! :)

Summary by Bot
Bad Milo is a trashy horror comedy centered on a man tormented by a grotesque, anal monster symbolizing his bad conscience. Despite a promising start and clever psychological undertones, the film falters due to a meandering screenplay and sloppy direction. It offers some laughs through its dark humor but ultimately remains a poorly executed concept with cult movie potential if handled differently.
