When slacker teen Anton Tobias has his right hand possessed by a demonic force, he finds that his life gets a lot more interesting.
Life in the loser lane is one lazy trip for seventeen year-old slacker Anton Tobias (Devon Sawa, Final Destination). He dreams of living on his couch all day long, watching TV and being served by a gorgeous goddess. But when he wakes up on Halloween morning to discover both of his parents have been turned into headless Halloween decorations, life becomes a little more animated and considerably more grisly. After speaking to his equally irresponsible friends, Mick (Seth Green, Austin Powers in Goldmember) and Pnub (Elden Henson, Daredevil), Anton discovers that his right hand has a tendency to wreak havoc without his authority, keen to kill, maim or harm anything and everything within grasp. Unable to control himself or his hand, Tobias will need all the help he can get to overcome this crazy spell and with any luck regain the upper hand, before anyone else falls prey to his macabre ways. A cult comedy favourite, Idle Hands also features Jessica Alba, Vivica A.Fox, Fred Willard and punk rockers The Offspring.
