Netherbeast Incorporated (2007)
Hilarious indie comedy!
I caught this at the AFI Film Fest here in Dallas this past Friday. It was one of the funniest damn films I've seen. I thought it was going to have a little more horror since it's about vampires. It's not scary at all but there's a lot of laughs.
A lot of the cast and crew were there because it was the World Premiere. Jason Mewes was there. He wasn't in the movie as much as I hoped he would be. The host of Blue's Clues (Steve Burns) was the main character, and he's a really good actor. But its Darrel Hammond who steals the show as the boss who gets "vampire Alzheimer's" and throws the company (made up entirely of vampires) into chaos.
There are so many funny lines and scenes in it that I'd love to spoil for everyone, but you owe it to yourselves to see them first hand. Most of the funniest material was in very questionable taste. There's a vintage recruiting poster on the wall that says "Love Those Cripples" accompanied by a one-legged employee with a robotic arm. And watch for the scene where an engineer explains why the scrotum is impractical. Priceless.
I'm a big fan of all kinds of comedies, and this is one of the smartest, most entertaining indie comedies I've seen.
