Well, he's average until his hand becomes possessed and takes on a life of its own – and racks up a pretty impressive body count along the way. whose hand becomes possessed and goes on a killing spree, even after being cut off from his arm. And just when you think the obvious solution is staring Anton in the face? Well, let's just say that Anton's hand is all about its independence. Equally impressive was the film's soundtrack, which included tracks from The Offspring, Blink-182, Rob Zombie, Static-X, and others.

Svengoolie on Tonight's Screening of "Idle Hands": "Tonight Imp leads Gwengoolie and Nostalgiaferatoo through everyone's favorite film talk show, 'Coffin Convos.' Gwengoolie takes the boys into a classic commercial encouraging folks to say 'no' to suspect spices like paprika and oregano. Svengoolie goes out 'On The Road' and brings Gwen, Nosti & IMP to C2E2 in Chicago to do a panel for the audience there, sign some autographs and spread goodwill."
