    Funny short film

    This is a funny take on The Blair Witch Project. Animated thumbs with creepy looking faces surprisingly work well for this short film. This movie is still enjoyable despite its 28 minute runtime. I have two favorite scenes from this movie. My first favorite scene is when a shark is somehow able to attack the three thumb characters in the forest. Another favorite scene of mine is when a mother is being interviewed about The Blair Thumb, while holding her baby. The baby does a creepy trick with 666 on its forehead. There are other funny moments in this thumb adventure as well. I recommend this along with the other thumb films.

    Fun Short Film

    To appreciate this film you need to like seemingly random humor, parody and satire, and weird ideas brought to life on film... you will probably like this movie.

    The film is a strange satire/parody of "The Blair Witch Project." Even if you haven't seen the film it's satirizing, as long as you know some basics about the film, you'll get most of the jokes. I've seen 5 of the 6 thumb films. (excepting "Frankenthumb") I consider this to be the best of the six. This has some of the most absolutely ridiculous and funny moments I've seen in a parody, especially recent parodies. And the amazing thing is that the film actually manages to stay pretty clean. There's not a whole lot of swearing, there are some sexual jokes, but they're not overwhelming or blatant, and it's something you can watch with children without worrying about the content.

    The ending was a little too random, referencing another thumb film, and the DVD menu is a bit of a pain in the ass... switching you to random menus... (on a play of the 'lost in the woods' idea) which brought the movie from a 10 to a 9.

    However, the film is very enjoyable and has some of the most ridiculously funny moments I've seen in a parody (once you get to a screen that will play it).

    I recommend it for anyone who likes random, weird, satirical humor.

    9/10 - weird, satirical, random fun.

    Better Than The Blair Witch Project!!!

    I love this movie! This little gem is so funny and creative! It is way better than the Blair witch project! I recommend this movie to everyone! There are quite a few Blair Witch Project spoofs out there,but this one is the best.

    If you want 30 minutes of laughter,see,no buy this movie! I'm sure that you will love this movie! It is funny and clean.

    It is unrated but I would rate it PG for some suggestive content.

    I hope you enjoy the movie and my comment.

    Check out Steve Oedekerk's other thumb movies, The Godthumb,Bat Thumb, And others.

    Also,don't forget to check out Steve Oedekerk's Kungpow, enter the fist.

    Llama here, llama gone....

    Oh man ~ so funny. Steve Oedekirk has the greatest sense of humor! I haven't laughed this hard in AGES!!! I have yet to be let down by any of his loopy O Entertainment creations - and I eagerly await my chance to see Thumbtanic and Kung Pao - Enter the Fist. You can tell he's quite full of himself in his little pre-movie, self-praise rants (on the DVDs, that is). Unbelievable humor - simple and poetic, but thought-provoking, too. There are so many good quotes on this movie - but still, Thumb Wars is the pinnacle of thumb humor... check it out - heck, you'll only lose 30 minutes of your life on it.

      [Day after shark attack]

      Stressy: Maybe it wasn't a shark.

      Jish: What?

      Vic: Well then, what was it?

      Jish: It was a shark!

      Stressy: Maybe it was a deer or something.

      Vic: I hate to break it to you, but deers don't have dorsal fins, okay? Deers don't have frickin' razor-sharp teeth, okay?
