[Swiss Army Man] Who or what the hell is Manny?

r/

Who or what the hell is Manny? Is he a corpse? A zombie? A scientific experiment gone wrong? A fart-fuelled divine figure? A delusional figment of Hank’s mind?

Just what the hell is this corpse-but-not-really-a-corpse that is both alive and dead and has all these bizarre functions to them?

    Mainly that, but also how Hank’s delusional minds interprets (and exaggerates) some stuff that can naturally occur with corpses.
