Idle Hands (1999)

Directed by Rodman Flender

Comedy | Horror

Most recently watched by Javitron, schofizzy

Overview

Anton is a cheerful but exceedingly non-ambitious 17-year-old stoner who lives to stay buzzed, watch TV, and moon over Molly, the beautiful girl who lives next door. However, it turns out that the old cliché about idle hands being the devil’s playground has a kernel of truth after all.

Rated R | Length 92 minutes

Viewing Notes

Picked this up b/c Brad Miska and Peter Hall were chatting about it on Twitter. Never had any interest in this film until I saw them tweet images of Jessica Alba. She’s in this?! That piqued my curiosity since I knew this wasn’t a recent film. Surprised it goes back to 1999! Damn. Everyone here is a youngster.

Exactly what I expected. Pretty dopey. Silly slapstick horror hi-jinx. Not really my thing which is why I haven’t viewed this until now. Alba is cute and the finale is quite fun redeeming the movie. Not something I’d revisit.
