Freddy Got Fingered is a 2001 American surreal black comedy film directed by Tom Green and written by Green and Derek Harvie. The film stars Green alongside Rip Torn, Marisa Coughlan, Eddie Kaye Thomas and Julie Hagerty. The plot follows a childish slacker who wishes to become a professional cartoonist while dealing with his abusive father's behavior. The title of the film refers to a plot point where Green's character falsely accuses his father of sexually abusing his brother, the eponymous Freddy.

Production

Principal photography took place from August to October 2000, and was mostly shot in Vancouver, while some scenes were shot in Santa Monica, California.

Chris Prynoski, former Beavis and Butt-Head and Daria animator, produced the "Zebras in America" animation segment as the first project for his company, Titmouse Productions.

The theatrical release for the film is 87 minutes and it was received an R rating by the Motion Picture Association of America following requested cuts to tone it down from an NC-17, a rating that Tom Green described as "like porn with murder." As an extra on the DVD release, Green also included a version of the ending, where a small child character gets sliced by the airplane propeller, which he had edited to secure an R rating with a last-minut…

The music score was composed by Mike Simpson of the electronic band Dust Brothers, who had previously scored other films such as the 1999 film Fight Club and the 2000 comedy film Road Trip, the latter in which Tom Green also acted. Simpson would go on to collaborate with Green on Tom Green's House Tonight. The soundtrack was released on April 17, 2001 by Restless Records and had consisted of mostly punk rock, hardcore punk and electronic music.

Some of the songs featured in the film, but not on the official soundtrack include "I Just Wanna Love U (Give It 2 Me)" by JAY-Z, "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony)" by The New Seekers, "I've Gotta Be Me" by Sammy Davis Jr., and "The Real Slim Shady" by Eminem.
