Am I Missing Something?
A Major Disappointment
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

View MoreTwo years ago a guy convinced me to finally watch the ridiculously titled movie 'Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter'. I was glad I finally watched it. (As an aside, it was supposed to be a freebie movie in some DVD review mag I was buying in 2001 or 2002, but my copy of the mag contained the US version of the DVD instead of the Canadian version and had a 'Species' DVD instead...grrr.) This 'movie' clocks in around 30 minutes and NEVER takes itself seriously. Bananas, robozombies, Mexican wrestler super spies (teaching youngsters how to wrestle on the beach), double crossing women, and fight scenes to ridiculous to believe...all make this a funny enjoyable flick.Don't expect 'The Matrix' style pizazz or effects. Don't expect Jackie Chan fight scenes. Just enjoy the low budget goodness that is Hairy Knuckles.
View MoreMy biggest qualm about this movie is that it is just a 'short'. As it is, it qualifies as an eetsie-weetsie gem.'Harry Knuckles' is a kitchen sink comedy that alternates between parody and pastiche of various B-movie genres, such as kung fu flicks, zombie movies, and third-rate Bond wannabes.Throw in a fresh approach to banana jokes, and you've got a winner. Lee Demarbre directs, doing justice to an inventive script by Ian Driscoll.
View MoreLooks bad, sounds bad...so what. This is the funniest short film I have seen in a REALLY long time. It is chock-full of movie references, but not smarmy "Scream" types. Aztek Mummy, Santo, The Jade Pussycat...what more can you ask for. The guy who plays Harry is Hilarious, and the camerawork is top notch. I recomend this film to anyone who has a good sense of humor.Other films on The Best of Tromadance tape are great as well.
View MoreLee Demarbe does an amazing job writing and directing this cool film. It's hilarious through-out and joyfully disgusting. The irony and stupidity of the jokes are great. Harry Knuckles' charm will take Demarbe to the top of Hollywood.
