What happens

Vulgar is a 2000 American black comedy crime exploitation film written and directed by Bryan Johnson and produced by Monica Hampton for Kevin Smith's View Askew Productions. It features multiple actors from the View Askewniverse. The film is the tale of the character Vulgar, a clown who appeared in the original View Askew Productions logo. Though not a Kevin Smith film, it stars several actors that were cast in other View Askew Productions, such as Brian O'Halloran as the lead character, Smith himself as a gay TV executive, Ethan Suplee as one of the antagonists, Jason Mewes as a car wash employee and black-arms merchant, Scott Mosier as a daytime talk show host and writer/director/editor Bryan Johnson in a supporting role as the lead's best friend, Syd. In 2016, Johnson announced plans to create a sequel to Vulgar despite him saying in an interview that he was not going to make a sequel. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
