About

Jon Lansdale is a comic book artist who loses his right hand in a car accident. The hand was not found at the scene of the accident, but it soon returns by itself to follow Jon around, and murder those who anger him.
A surreal, fever-dream atmosphere settles over this psychedelic nightmare as a severed limb begins its murderous spree. This stylish piece of genre oddity trades logic for a hallucinatory sense of dread that lingers long after the credits roll.
