Excellent, smart action film.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
My 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.
Looks 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.
Lee 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.
It's horrible, absolutely horrible, and it's *supposed* to be. It's a rip-off of every bad Spanish, gangster, B, monster, kung-fu-fighting movie you've ever seen.It's hilarious, and it'll never, ever be in a video store near you. Too bad.
