Hectic Knife Audience Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Troma Freek Knife wielding vigilante Hectic Knife roams the streets of New York City taking out evil any way he can and dispatches of thugs and druggies left and right. When a madman and arch enemy Piggly Doctor (J.J. Brine) wants to bring upon the end of the world, Hectic Knife rises to the challenge. This is pure exploitation mayhem from start to finish. Cheesy Indie film-making at it's finest.
Leofwine_draca HECTIC KNIFE is a wannabe art-house thriller, shot in a cheap black and white style that robs the film of impact. It's an indie movie about a vigilante who takes to the streets to fight for justice only to find himself running afoul of a super villain with murder in mind. There's little here to enjoy, just a whole bunch of extraneous character dialogue and attempts at humour that constantly fall flat.
Nicholas Charles Loved how this movie was filmed in black and white, this movie brings out the spirit in independent filmmaking.Hectic Knife was very well written & directed. In my opinion this is a must see for any independent movie lovers. Looking forward to see more work from Greg Deliso!
Douglas Waltz In a world similar to our own there is a vigilante roaming the streets of New York City. He destroys the junkies, the drug dealers, pretty much anyone who is evil and destructive. His name is Hectic Knife and armed with his two trusty knives and an uncanny ability to regenerate from any wound, even self inflicted ones, he is out to make the world a better place. But, there's no money in the world saving business so he advertises for a new roommate and ends up with Link (John Munnelly) who with his comic books and fat stacks of cash, moves in right away. Consisting on a diet of nothing but hard boiled eggs and the occasionally fried gun and cardboard (???) he dispatches thugs left and right. When he saves a young girl, Frannie Glooper (Georgia Kate Haege), she follows him home declaring herself as his girlfriend. When Hectic beats the crap out of three drug dealers he finds that they are working for the nefarious Piggly Doctor (J.J. Brine). A madman who wants to bring about the end of the world by hooking everyone on drugs and blowing up small children. Hectic Knife must call upon his mad skills of knife wielding to save the day, the planet, and the children and maybe even himself. I go to a convention twice a year. Cinema Wasteland. Held the first weekend of April and October every year it has been a Waltz tradition for over a decade. I was walking through the dealers room with the always lovely Martha Waltz when a man in a long, blonde wig, face covered in blood approached us with flyers in hand. He was pimping his new film being released by Troma. That film was Hectic Knife. When I expressed my enthusiasm for what sounded like an epic film he gave us a special screener copy of his movie along with a CD of his own music. (The music is cool, thanks Peter – DW) I had zero expectations when I started the movie. It exceeded all of them. See, I'm an old fart and have watched so many movies that I remember when there were these amazing underground film makers like Kenneth Anger, Richard Kern and Nick Zedd. I can remember seeing movies like Liquid Sky and Repo Man that defied ordinary film making. Now I can add Hectic Knife to that eclectic blend of bizarre, weird and downright insane films that I can watch over and over again with no boredom creeping in around the edges. Using the black and white mode coupled with some grainy effects that can only be achieved through film and some really good computer programs this movie feels like it was made in the 80s and someone just dug it out of a hole for all of us to enjoy as it was meant to be. Hectic Knife is pure underground cinematic perfection. The characters are fully aware that you're watching them. Little touches of color creep in when appropriate like when one of the drug dealers can't stop talking about how orange the pills are. I especially liked the scene where Frannie introduced herself to Link and she did it about twenty times in about twenty accents. It sounds like a lot, but it works really well. The idea that people in this universe eat things like fried guns and cardboard are genius. It reminded me of the odd world created in the film The Dark Backward. Hectic Knife has two friends in the whole world in this movie his buddy Harry who is a Vietnam Vet that plays chess and kicks ass. He is awesome in this film. But, then Rockin Ray comes along. Rockin Ray is driving this car painted with a mural of awesomeness and has many things festooned about the entire surface. He is driving through the neighborhoods preaching his gospel of no drugs through a loudspeaker on the car. Imagine my surprise when I saw that he is a real person!The entire film reminded me of a better time in film. A time when people took chances and it got shown in a theater. This would play so well in a theater so it did my heart good to see that it will be having some screenings. I have no idea what brought that young man who I now know is the star of Hectic Knife, Peter Litvin, to hand over a copy of the film that he helped to bring into this world, but it made my day. Now, if you will excuse me I must go and spread the word of the magnificent piece of cinema known as…HECTIC KNIFE!
