In the second of three special Halloween episodes this year, we’re looking back to our season on the awesome movie year of 1999, to talk about horror comedy Idle Hands. Directed by Rodman Flender from a screenplay by Terri Hughes and Ron Milbauer and starring Devon Sawa, Seth Green, Elden Henson, Jessica Alba, Jack Noseworthy and Vivica A. Fox, Idle Hands was a semi-finalist in our 1999 audience choice teen-movies tournament.

The contemporary reviews quoted in this episode come from Roger Ebert (https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/idle-hands-1999), Robert Koehler in Variety (https://variety.com/1999/film/reviews/idle-hands-1200457159/), and Lawrence Van Gelder in The New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/1999/04/30/movies/film-review-a-demon-hand-a-cleaver-and-a-druid-named-debi.html).
