Product Description Created by the writer of "The Nutty Professor," "Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls" and "Patch Adams," this second installment in the Thumbation series is a clever tale about three thumbs who travel into the woods to make a documentary about a local urban legend. One year later, the thumbs' video equipment is found, the footage compiled and made into a chilling movie about the terror the students encountered during their search for the truth behind The Blair Thumb. .com Lost, stupid, and really, really scared, Stressy turns the camera on herself and whimpers, "I don't know where this snot is coming from because I don't have a nose." Well no, she doesn't, because she's the star of Steve Oedekerk's surreal all-thumbs parody of The Blair Witch Project. Three camera-wielding digits get lost in the forest, fight off a shark attack in their tent ("It could have been an owl," Stressy hopefully offers), and relentlessly film every moment of their blind panic. This bizarre spoof has it all over the recent rash of parodies: it's shorter (under half an hour) and sillier, and it stars Jaws, Frankenstein's monster, and a handful of talking thumbs with squished-together eyes, run-amok eyebrows, and overactive mouths spewing nonstop nonsense. And it's pretty darn funny to boot. The spoofing continues through the special supplements, with a mock "making of" featurette (where the thumbs blab on about coffee, motivation, and irritating butt rashes), outtakes and deleted scenes, and a thoroughly nonsensical, incomprehensible Insane commentary track to accompany the Sane (but only slightly more informative) commentary track. --Sean Axmaker

A gut-buster of a parody!
Nowadays, most parodies (Scary Movie, Don't Be A Menace) have been pretty much on the lame side (except when done by Leslie Neilson or anyone else who knows comedy, excluding Adam Sandler). But Thumbation produces some of the few parodies that can actually make you bust a gut in the midst of laughter.Since "The Blair Witch Project" was overrated and done in a gimmicky film style (even though it's still a good film), Steve Oedekerk and the rest of O Entertainment had plenty of reason to make a parody off of it, named no other than "The Blair Thumb". And they did it REALLY well.The three thumbs, Stressy, Vic, and Jish (with a character resemblant to that of Sean Penn's from "Fast Times At Ridgemont High"), have great personalities, thus enabling them to get tangled into a large number of laugh-out-loud situations. Heck, if you just look at the experssions and dialogue, you'll agree with me that you can laugh through the whole feature.Scene pics: Jish's introduction, Vic's introduction, the townsfolk documentaries, the grocery store ("Mallow, baby!"), the redneck documentary ("Twins should look alike!")...........From there, the gags never stop!The bottom line is that "The Blair Thumb" is a shining moment in parodies that NO comedy fan should be without. It is witty, fast, and undeniably hilarious (at a short 28 minutes. But hey, its a great 28).

Out in the forest, lost, without a camera tripod!
Stressy, Vic, and Jish go out into the woods, looking for the Blair Thumb! It's hard to tell you about it without giving anyway any details, but many of the scenes are very funny, including the night scenes. Sometimes the characters say something that we're thinking, like "why is it so safe IN the tent?" They make fun of every part of the "Blair Witch" that didn't make much sense. I happen to be a fan of the "Blair Witch" and found this to be a great(and short) parody. If it had been longer I think they might of run out of ideas. One point is taken away because I found the ending a tad weak.

Freakin' Hilarious
I happen to catch this playing in a SunCoast video store - there was crowd of people watching it around one of the ceiling monitors. What can I say? I felt like a fool standing in the middle of the mall laughing my butt off - but I had plenty of company.It's mostly the expressions on the thumbs 'faces' that really knock me out. The dialog is pretty funny as well - a great satire.I'll say this - you have to like, uh, 'stupid' humor. If you find stuff like 'Half Baked' or 'Scary Movie' funny, you'll love this.Fortunately for me. I LOVE stupid humor. This is right up my alley.

I'm ready for more movies!
First of all, if you don't like this movie, your either the devil, or a stupid person who dosn't get the jokes.( Though that would be hard for someone) I was a thumb fan ever since 1999, when I first saw Thumbwars. I had memorized every line. Now, after I have seen all six thumb movies, I want more! This is a movie I watched about 500,000,000 times. Sadly, Steve Oedekerk ( The Creator) May stop the thumb movies now, or after Thumbatrix, Lord of Thumb Rings, and World Thumb Wrestling. It realley makes me mad.
