I AM A KNIFE WITH LEGS

TICKETS for I AM A KNIFE WITH LEGS at 518 Val Sat Feb 10, 1p HERE

Director Bennet Jones – 2015 USA 90 min – IndieFest 2015 program note:

First his girlfriend dies in a suicide bombing. Then a fatwa is issued against him. And now international Europop star Bené’s eclair is weird. Seven years and hundreds of dollars in the making, I Am a Knife With Legs is an underground cinema wonder. Utilizing random scribbled animation, multiple Adobe After Effects freeware plug-ins and, most importantly, comedic timing of proportions rivaling Bené’s songwriting abilities, it lacks anything resembling a dull moment— a rare occurrence when a film is this intentionally batshit weird. – Kier-la Janisse, SF IndieFest
