Tusk is a body horror/dark comedy about a Podcast host who investigates a lonely old man who has quite a tale to tell concerning his relationship with a walrus he calls Mr. Tusk. What follows is the host (Played by Justin Long) being overwhelmed in Canada and transformed into a monster and fighting for what remains of his life as his friends witness his terrible de-evolution. Sick, gruesome and at times funny, this movie will sink its tusks into you and not let go! Watch for Johnny Depp as an unrecognizable sleuth, Lily-Rose Depp and Harley Quinn Smith as store clerks, and Haley Joel Osmet as a fellow host.
Great moive.
More mistakes in Tusk
Howard Howe: We survive at all costs. Only to butcher again. And again. Until we ourselves are at last butchered in turn.
Trivia: During the flashbacks of Howe stranded on the island, in one brief shot we see the carcass of the dead "Mr. Tusk" after he has killed it - the deceased walrus's body wasn't originally planned to be on-camera, and was constructed by the prop and makeup crew in less than an hour using bits of fabric, pieces of filming equipment and any other odds and ends they could find lying about on or near set.
Question: After Wallace was found as a walrus, why couldn't his friends get him to a hospital to surgically make him human again?
Answer: They left him as a walrus because Kevin Smith wanted to leave the possibility for a sequel; which is slated for 2024 as "Tusks."

Answer: There's no clear answer but after defeating and killing Howe, Wallace seemed resigned to his fate that he was now living as a walrus and may have refused corrective surgery. It wasn't until the end when Ally said that she still loved him that his humanity began to resurface.

I agree with this, and I also think it wouldn't be worth correcting. He would still not look human.
