Frankenthumb (2002)

Henry Frankenstein is a doctor who is trying to discover a way to make the dead walk. He succeeds and creates a monster that has to deal with living again, and shall be called...Pepper. Hilarity ensues.

Trivia: All the characters are portrayed by thumbs.

The thumb short were all created by Steve Oedekerk. Some of the other include: Thumbtanic, The Godthumb, Thumb Wars: The Phantom Cuticle, Bat Thumb. In Frankenthumb Dr. Frankenthumb is hilarious and the Frankenthumb Monster (called Pepper because he spices up the Doctor's life) is funny because of some of the facial expressions.

Okay, now a plee for help. I was a little too ambitious and Netflix has kind of let me down*. As a result, I am going to be short on my Halloween movies (Netflix just can't get them to me in time, I will go ahead and review them when I get them), but until then can I ask you, good readers, to do a guest review. All you have to do is pick a movie that you have seen and that fits into my definition, which is very broad as you can see, and email me one or two paragraphs. I will do the rest of the post (plot summary, trivia, poster). I would really appreciate that.

*I am also going to miss Saturday's Bond Post as they haven't sent it yet.

The Blair Thumb (2002)

In October of some year three film students, Stressie, Jish, and Vic, make a student film about a local urban legend... The Blair Thumb. The three went into the woods on a two day hike to find the Blair Thumb, without a tripod, and never came back. One year later, the students film and video was found in the woods. The footage was compiled and made into a movie. Hilarity ensues.

Trivia: In case you haven't figured it out, all the characters were portrayed by thumbs.

Okay, I know that this is a short film, but it is probably as close to the Blair Witch Project as I ever get, I still haven't decided if I am going to watch it. This little filmette was actually very funny, although it would probably have been funnier if I had actually seen BWP. The thumbs are really well done (they have full on CGI faces).
