Seventeen year old slacker Anton Tobias wakes up one Halloween morning to discover that both of his parents have been turned into two headless Halloween decorations. After speaking to his equally irresponsible friends, Mick and Pnub, he discovers that his right hand has a blood-thirsty mind of its own and is hell-bent on wreaking havoc whether he likes it or not.

What more can I say about this movie?
All I knew about it was that it had quite a few elements of teen comedy and that I've only seen the tail end of it a few times.
Now that I finally saw the whole thing, it's now one of my favorites!
It's a welcome change from most of the horror movies I've seen.
Great music, great acting, and gorgeous women (Specifically speaking, Jessica Alba)... what more do you want?
This is one of those movies that you can watch and understand it perfectly... whether or not you're stoned.
10 out of 10
