Idle Hands follows the life of a teen whose hand becomes possessed and goes on a killing spree, even after being cut off from his arm.Comedy & Horror Seem To Work Well Together,
I thought this (Idle Hands) was going to be just another dumb teen comedy. After watching the first 10 minutes, I was convinced it (Idle Hands) was, and was ready to try something else. Well, I am glad I stayed with it. It (Idle Hands) was very funny and a combination comedy and horror film. Yes, it's humor geared more for teens but people far older than 15 should still get a lot of laughs out of this.
Warning: some (Idle Hands) of the scenes are pretty gross, at least for a comedy, but that's what made those particularly scenes funny. Comedy and horror mix well together, anyway.
The (Idle Hands) film reminded me a bit of "American Werewolf in London" with the "undead" kids. Despite the absurdity of it, there are a couple of good message in here....but, generally, this is purely escapist fun and nothing else.
