Norwegian filmmaker Johan Kaos has a message for those who would pirate his latest comedy, Pornopung.

Look at my clean-shaven man parts. Seriously. Look at them.

Kaos uploaded what appeared to be a copy of Pornopung (Norwegian slang for “shaved balls,” according to TorrentFreak) to the Pirate Bay in September, except it went largely unnoticed for more than a month. Kaos’s special director’s cut was a little different from the official film, however, as illegal downloaders quickly discovered. After about ten minutes or so of film footage, the movie cuts out, replaced with Kaos in his bathroom.

There, he briefly addresses the viewer. Then he whips out his shaven testicles, where they remain on screen for more than an hour.

“Actually, I thought to fill the rest with 80 minutes of my butt, but then I’d record it I realized how exceptionally bad it was going to be,” Kaos told Norway’s Afterposten (translated via Google). “So I created a clean-shaven scrotum. A little more thematically relevant and easily more aesthetically, it seems.”

Pornopung’s plot revolves around a nice young man who moves to Oslo, where he meets two pick-up artists who teach him their ways of meeting women—which includes the titular shave.

Kaos added that he had no idea how many people have now seen his balls, but that he’s left the file to seed on his home computer, and his “upload bar” has “really gotten bogged down in the last month.”
